Q&A
Sam: "6 inch is definitely about building out that world" in reference to more things such as "porgs" added to the line.
Editor's Note: Wrong scale. He had to have been talking about 3.75", right? It was a mistake, right? RIGHT??
Sam: "Vocal community" can help make dream items like the Sail Barge come true.
Sam: We know the members of the skiff guards and Jabba's palace that are missing from 3.75" which we'd love to get out, as well as update older figures, we just can't reveal any info now. "Vocal Community" can help justify a character, we can bring into the line.
Sam: Animated entertainment would likely bring about animated figures.
(Editor's note: BOOOO!)
No plans for new Resistance figures.
No comment on 6" Zeb at this time (wink wink nudge nudge). Such a release would need a deluxe type of release, like Grievous.
