Thanks for sending in your questions and keep them coming for the next Q&A (take the link above or on the left hand menu), we need your questions by midday on Friday 13th March (yes that's Friday 13th!!!) please.
Read on for the Questions and Answers...
1. The new packaging looks even better in person and we were pleased to see it at the UK Toy Fair this week. At what wave will this new packaging come in? Also, will we see of any of the currently released figures from both the Legacy and Clone Wars lines repackaged in this new style?
The new packaging will be available approximately August or September in the US, and about a month after in the rest of the world. The wave numbering will start over with the new series even though the assortment number (our own internal stock number) will remain the same. Some figures will indeed be released in both packages for all three of the figure lines (Clone Wars, Legacy/Droid Factory, and Saga Legends).
2. We're really pleased to see the pictures of the animated Jabba coming in a Battlepack later this year. Bearing in mind we're also getting a new Slave Leia (hopefully with two sets of legs?) does that mean that we're a step closer to seeing an OTC Jabba with dias and throne soon - maybe later this year or next year perhaps?
There will not be a new movie-style Jabba this year, but there is a good chance that there will be one in 2010. This has yet to be confirmed though. It's unknown whether he will come with a new dais; our hope is that it will, but we have to be considerate of what the set will cost as well.
3. We've seen images of the new Ugnaught coming in the new Empire wave of figures later this year. We understand that approximately half way through the run you'll be changing to another different Ugnaught, is this correct? Will both of these figures be released in equal numbers? Also, will both figures be numbered DB No. 43 and will they have the same or different BAD parts?
The two different Ugnaught versions will ship with different waves, but both will be numbered the same. The first, with the console as accessory, will ship with the U-3PO wave, and the second (with apron and the satchel accessory) will ship with the R3-01 body two waves later. The second one will be produced in a slightly smaller batch size than the first, although that could change depending on how consumer demand continues for the Legacy/Droid Factory line and the size we need to release at the time it's ready to go.
