1) We've gotten listener feedback that they like the Mighty Muggs but
cannot collect them all, due to space or budgetary constraints. One
suggestion we received was perhaps a miniaturized line of Mighty Muggs,
perhaps along the scale of the Galactic Heroes line, representing the Mugg
aesthetic with a smaller shelf footprint and price point. Is such a
release possible and/or likely?
2) As I look out upon my collection and see the latest ships and figures
released with minor differences such as a paint of a slightly more red color
or a female twi'lek painted on the nose, I am reminded of the old movie
Batman series of figures where almost every release was Batman with a
different accessory or paint scheme (the banana yellow Batman being a
personal favorite). It is widely speculated that the lack of character
variety led to that series' demise.
Given the number of repaints and retools, both along the lines of figures
and vehicles, is collector saturation ever a concern? Or is the turnover
of collectors so great that if a slightly different A-Wing is released every
couple of years it finds a new audience?
3) We all saw the new packaging for the Clone Wars Season 2 line of figures.
Will this be the start of a new line designation, or will it be the same
line with a different style of cardback? And will these changes roll to
the Legacy collection as well?
