Every Friday by 5 PM ET, Jedi Insider will be able to submit 3 questions that we would like posed to the Hasbro's Star Wars brand team. All questions submitted will be reviewed and answers to a select few will be posted on
https://www.Hasbro.com/StarWars the following Friday afternoon. Though only a sampling of all questions received will be posted to Hasbro's site each week, they will make their best effort to respond directly to each editor with answers to all submitted questions.
Here are the first batch of questions and answers for 2007.
JI: Images of the
Treachery On Saleucami Battle Pack with BARC speeders recently showed up on the internet. First can you tell us if this will be a store exclusive, or will it see a regular release? Second can you tell us if there are any plans to do further battle packs like this one with the small vehicles? For instance Speeder Bikes with Endor Luke and Leia or Taun Tauns with Hoth Han and Luke are some suggestions our readers have made.
Hasbro: Since the cat is out of the bag..we can confirm that it will be a store exclusive for Wal-Mart and will probably be on shelf in April sometime. We are looking at the possibility of additional ones like this in the future, expanding the battle pack idea.
JI: With the Transformers movie due out later this year, can you tell us anything about the plans you have for the Star Wars/Transformers line in 07?
Hasbro: The response to the Star Wars Transformers line has been astonishing and we will be continuing with this great sub-line all year. Look for some announcements regarding our next products at Toy Fair.
Editor Note: The International Toy Fair takes place on February 11-14. Look for full coverage of all the new exciting Star Wars products that will be shown there right here on JI.
JI:In a previous Q/A you said there would be a new Mace Windu figure released this year with decent articulation, any chance we can get a sneak peek of that figure with an image?
Hasbro: The new Mace Windu figure is in the first wave of the 30th Anniversary Collection (TAC) and images were released in October. We have attached the released image in case you have not seen it.
Editor Note: Yeah we must have still been drinking the holiday egg-nog when we wrote this question, since the image has been out there for awhile, but here it is again for those who may have missed it the first time.
