Come clean, Hasbro. You lost the tooling to this figure, didn't you. I feel like I'm writing this repack request out of a sense of obligation, and not because it will have any affect. Saying that this ARC Trooper Commander needs to be re-released is about as obvious a statement as saying water is wet. I've personally heard this figure suggested to Hasbro as a re-release candidate at two separate conventions. Hasbro knows. So again, I write this just so I don't have to answer the question of why I didn't.

This figure is notable because it's one of the TVC 1.0 figures that was actually repacked once during that first run, and yet still failed to meet initial demand. So once again we have a figure that under served the demand initially, and now has a decade of pent up demand added to that. Since the (not) Captain Fordo figure is a "two-fer" where you can essentially create two different versions of the character via accessory load out, most fans would buy two or even three if they want to keep one carded.

I have to restate there is no way Hasbro does not know there is a significant demand to re-release this figure, so the fact that it hasn't happened makes me think that they can't for one reason or another.
