Hasbro's Star Wars Q&A Answers for ActionFigureNews.ca

AFN: Are the mail away Nahdar Vebb and Boba Fett figures going to be made available to Canada?
Hasbro: Yes, in fact all three of the promotional mail-ins (including one more kid-targeted mail-in yet to be announced for later this Fall) will be available in Canada in the same manner as previous mail-ins.

AFN: In 2009, The Clone Wars Wave 2 (the fifth wave released overall) never saw a release at Canadian retail. Through later revisionist waves we did find Kit Fisto and the Jet Pack Battle Droid on store shelves, but Jar Jar Binks and the Green Clone Trooper never appeared. Is there any plans to include Jar Jar specifically in a future wave so that kids and collectors alike will have a chance to pick him up?
Hasbro: Jar Jar is not slated for re-release right now but we would not rule it out if he returned in a significant way to the Clone Wars. It's possible that the green clone will see a re-release some day.

Post your questions for the next round of Hasbro Star Wars Q&A.

Interesting. I could have sworn that Hasbro's initial response a couple weeks back said that Boba wouldn't be available in Canada.

Really? I thought they'd always planned to have it released here in Canada. I never heard anything different.

I misread the Toyark link about Nahdar. It says the latest "Unlike the Legacy Mail Away", and thought that meant Boba.

Ah, okay. Good thing too, I'd die without a new Boba to add to my collection.

What do they mean by green clone trooper? Commander Gree's 41st?

Yeah, that one was originally in the wave with Jar Jar.

Re: Hasbro's Star Wars Q&A Answers for ActionFigureNews.ca

The 41st Clone Trooper with green trim did see release up here. I've got ten of these in my Crumb Bomber hold with Gree and got most of those during the TRU pre-Christmas buy-two-for-$10 sales.

I never saw Jar-Jar though, but I'm in no rush for that one.

LOL, is any one really ever in a rush for Jar Jar?
