Hasbro's Questions & Answers #18

Posted by Pete | November 10, 2006 at 09:59 PM ET

     The latest round of questions sent out to Hasbro now have thier answers! Click here to read on...

Don't forget, you can submit questions in our forums and we'll try to get as many as possible submitted to Hasbro. We can send only three questions per week, so make sure they are good ones! Now, on to this weeks Questions and Answers directly from Hasbro.

Q. With the release of more Battle Droids in the future are you planning on using the plastic that was used on the Episode I droid? They were the only ones that really stood up without bending over time.

A. We are looking at ensuring they don't have the problems we've seen at home on shelf with our BD armies...that annoying droop.

Q. The Battle of Naboo wave is just starting to show up at retail now and there are 22 more figures slated for the Saga Collection and less than 2 months to go before the new year. Are these all slated for release in 2006 or is the plan to have them released in 2007 and lap over the start of the 30th Anniversary Collection?

A. These last 22 Saga figures will stretch out from roughly the first week of December through 3/24, when the 2007 greatest hits waves should start to feed into the pipeline. If all goes according to plan, these will have ample time at retail for collectors to get them and will not suffer the same short-window fate as prior basic figure waves.

Q. How many comic book 2-packs are planned for 2007. Can you tell us which story arcs they cover?

A. We have 15 packs slotted into the lineup next year with a possible early ship against the 2008 line bringing in one more wave before the end of '07. We don't want to be too specific on the story arcs, but it covers some of the greatest Dark Horse stories (with the occasional Marvel reprint) from both movie period and beyond.


Check back next week and we'll post the next round of Questions (and answers) as soon as Hasbro offers them.
