Hasbro's Questions & Answers #62

     Don't forget, you can submit questions in our forums and we'll try to get as many as possible submitted to Hasbro. We can send only three questions per week, so make sure they are good ones! Now, on to this weeks Questions and Answers directly from Hasbro.

Q. Of the current Dark Horse comic titles on the stands ( Knights Of The Old Republic, Dark Times, Rebellion & Legacy ), we've only seen Comic 2-pack offerings for the Legacy series.  When can we expect to see some offerings for the current comic titles?  And can you give us some hints about which characters might be in the running?

A. We have been concentrating more on Legacy because of the amazing impact and excitement this title has brought to the EU (however, don't forget that Rebellion actually inspired the Dagger Squadron B-Wing and pilot Netrem Pollard!).  As far as comic packs go from the current DH titles, the next one up will be Rebellion #3 out late this year/early 2009 featuring a pair of characters in the awesome new Rebel stealth suit. After that will be two more Legacy titles in 2009 (one which will feature Darth Krayt), and finally the first KotOR issue should be out late 2009 if the schedule holds.

Q. We were very pleased to read in the Q&A's that the vintage Klaatu, Wooof, has been confirmed for 2009's basic figure line.  And we were equally happy to see that Jabba's palace aliens will be part of the 2009 RETURN OF THE JEDI basic figure wave.  But can we expect to get some of the never before made aliens from Jabba's palace?  Perhaps aliens like Yoxgit, Cane Addis, Geezum or Loje Nella?

A. Long term we do plan to get to some of these guys, but they are not in the 2009 lineup.

Q.In the most previous Q&A session with Jedi Temple Archives, Hasbro confirmed that there would be a new Imperial Officer on the way in 2009.  And that said officer would be an identified character, and not generic.  Are we looking at an all new character, or is this going to be bringing another Imperial Officer up to date?  And could this perhaps be the Captain Needa figure that's been talked about in collector circles for the past couple of years?

A. It will indeed be Captain Needa.

Check back in a few weeks and we'll post the next round of Questions (and answers) as soon as Hasbro offers them.
