A
new figure confirmed and more Legacy EU on the way... find out all the latest info in
this round of Questions
& Answers from Hasbro!
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.
Of the current Dark Horse comic titles on the stands ( Knights Of The Old Republic,
Dark Times, Rebellion & Legacy ), we've only seen Comic 2-pack offerings for
the Legacy series. When can we expect to see some offerings for the current
comic titles? And can you give us some hints about which characters might be
in the running?
A.
We have been concentrating more on Legacy because of the amazing impact
and excitement this title has brought to the EU (however, don't forget
that Rebellion actually inspired the Dagger Squadron B-Wing and pilot
Netrem Pollard!). As far as comic packs go from the current DH titles,
the next one up will be Rebellion #3 out late this year/early 2009
featuring a pair of characters in the awesome new Rebel stealth suit.
After that will be two more Legacy titles in 2009 (one which will feature
Darth Krayt), and finally the first KotOR issue should be out late 2009 if
the schedule holds.
Q.
We were very pleased to read in the Q&A's that the vintage Klaatu, Wooof, has
been confirmed for 2009's basic figure line. And we were equally happy to see
that Jabba's palace aliens will be part of the 2009 RETURN OF THE JEDI basic
figure wave. But can we expect to get some of the never before made aliens
from Jabba's palace? Perhaps aliens like Yoxgit, Cane Addis, Geezum or Loje
Nella?
A.
Long term we do plan to get to some of these guys, but they are not in the
2009 lineup.
Q.In
the most previous Q&A session with Jedi Temple Archives, Hasbro confirmed that
there would be a new Imperial Officer on the way in 2009. And that said officer
would be an identified character, and not generic. Are we looking at an all
new character, or is this going to be bringing another Imperial Officer up to date? And
could this perhaps be the Captain Needa figure that's been talked about in collector
circles for the past couple of years?
A.
It will indeed be Captain Needa.
Check back in a few weeks and we'll post
the next round of Questions (and answers) as soon as Hasbro offers them.
