Here's our answers to the 'third' batch of questions we've sent Hasbro. Sorry for the slight delay in posting due to the Jewish New Year. Once again, we'd like to thank Hasbro for giving the UK fans a chance to get their questions answered here at Jedi News, the UK's premiere Star Wars fan site.
Please keep sending in your questions for the next Q&A (take the link above or on the left hand menu), we need your questions by next friday please!
Read on for the Questions and Answers...
1) There are still a lot of Padme figures left to do and with only one per year this is going to take quite a while. With the return of the Evolutions line (thank you!!!) how about a Padme Evolutions three pack featuring Padme from the first three films in three new costumes? You could easily show her evolving from Queen to Senator.
It does make sense and we have considered a pack like this (among others, of course) if the line were to continue. Right now we're focused on other packs, but that would be on a short list if the line were to go forward.
2) You've told us that stands will replace coins as the pack-ins for 2008. Can you confirm if these will be the same stands that we're part of the 'The Saga Collection', featuring the name of the film the figure came from along with the figures name or something different altogether?
Yes, they will be the same stands, with a custom name for that figure.
3) What happens to any surplus figures from promotions such as last year's Ultimate Galactic Hunt George Lucas Stormtrooper figure? Are these available for fans to buy, used for promotional purposes or dare I say destroyed?
They will not be made available for fans to buy. Any surplus stock is usually used for promotional purposes later on.
