Imperial Commando is kinda interesting, as is the trecnch run set. That one looks to be great fro MIB collectors.
I'm going to have to look very closely at the trench run set, as I already have everything in there unless they're updated the molds or the decos in any significant ways.
Hey Star Wars fans! Fan's of Boba Fett will be able to get their hands on another exciting mail away of the galaxies most feared bounty hunter this year! The Prototype Armor Boba Fett, based off an early concept version of the character used for The Empire Strikes Back, will only be available through mail-away starting in late 2011-early 2012. As with past promotions, UPC's from mass retail figures from the Vintage, Clone Wars, and Saga Legends line will be accepted.
However, with the campaign not starting for a few months still, we still have some time to kill. Thus, our friends over at Sandtroopers.com were kind enough to pass on a nice packaged look at this future mail-away exclusive. This looks to be one beautiful figure, with the same great looking paint and detail that has been Hasbro's Star Wars line for quite some time.
So, while the figure campaign may still be a few months away, sit back and enjoy these beautiful shots of, what I feel, will be another hotly anticipated Star Wars figure for the coming year!
Thanks to Sandtroopers.com for passing these on!

Got some nice, new shots of the soon-to-be-released Vintage Collection Landspeeder from Yakface.com this afternoon. It features a beautifully weather-worn deco and includes Luke's rifle from ANH, that clips onto the side of the vehicle.
Got to love that vintage style packaging too!
Thanks for passing this on, Yakface.com!

I think Talon Karrde already has a figure and they would be too tempted to make Larone out of a generic Stromtrooper.
Canderous would be very awesome, but my first choices would still be Gilad Pellaeon and Kyp Durron.
Too bad the voting isn't compeletly wide open, but by website. It doesn't seem like we'll get a say.
