NYCC Hasbro Preview Party: JTA's Q and A With Hasbro (One Last Straggler)

Posted by Paul | October 14, 2014 at 10:46 PM ET

I found one question and answer that didn't make it to our NYCC Hasbro Q&A. Click through if you're interested in one last tidbit of information from Hasbro....

Q. Have the fates of R5-X2 (Build A Droid) and/or R8-B7 (Build A Droid) changed at all? Why would you release R5-G19 without getting the latter out to collectors who have been waiting for them since early 2013?

A: Hasbro sadly has NO PLANS to get out either droid. I really pleaded for the release of R5-X2 since we have never had a basic figure of that figure in any format.... EVER. Hasbro said that they wanted to get out an Original Trilogy astromech droid out for collectors, and R5-G19 was next on the list. I was also left with the impression that they're "done" with Build A Droid for the time being. But that could have been my own misinterpretation.
