I thought these were kinda neat:

OMG those are fresh!! are these going to be released? cause I want those 3 Cantina aliens

[Brazoo]

That would be sick!

I haven't bought Star Wars stuff in years - but I really NEED a Vader! (at least!)

[starsky]

the figures look pretty awesome. i wish they went with a small head han vs the big head version. there's more discussion here.

Pretty cool. But the bigger question here is what will Lucas and Kenner expect the buyer to extract from their wallets to have these? I have no doubt these will be $50.00 figures...

Not being a SW collector is there really a market for these? I know all about the old 12" figures (used to own some back in the day) but is this something collectors will want? Just wondering. I have to say they are kinda cool. I'm digging the large blister cards.

Over on the SideshowFreaks board, there are many people who grew up with the vintage 3 3/4 inch figures who are drooling over these.

I think they are really cool idea, but as a kid I never liked the little Star Wars figures, having grown up with 12 inch GI Joe I saw the 3 inch figures that the toy market was moving towards as just cheap not to mention poorly sculpted.

But these are kinda cool, from the nostalgia perspective.

If they can sell a Darth Vader Toaster, and lightsaber chopsticks, it says exactly one thing:

Star Wars fans have no taste, and they WILL buy anything.

i know they sell for $85 at the con, but i wonder what the retail price would be for them afterwards.

[LonnieFisher]

They should have made them 8" instead!

Those are Insanely Cool.

These are insanely cool. I just wish they weren't being put out as a limited quantity. Now I need to find a quick grand and figure out which wall they're covering.

And OMG. I need to mod the Boba Fett for rocket-firing. HUGE.

[megoscott]

I saw the Stormtrooper on it's card, it's just insanely cool, but these will take over your house, they are huge. I gotta have Darth Vader.

[LadyZod]

We're already trying to narrow down how many and which ones to get.

I agree that smaller may have been better... still, I think I'm going to buy ALL of these.
