Captain Antilles is the next 12" Star Wars figure

Should go well with the rebel trooper, although it doesn't seem all that different from him. I'm betting he's also on the Buck...

Yeah, not that exciting really.

I had a feeling it would be someone like that.
After Vader and the Stormtrooper I thought they were going to start rolling. Man that came to a halt fast. Oh, well.

Wow, what a snoozefest this line has been lately. *yawn*

Where the f is Lando?!

I actually thought when I first saw the small pic it was just some info on the fleet trooper.

Kind of reminds me of when they released the Endor soldier trio... only this time not all at once.

Wonder if there will be a third?

Looks good I'm getting one.

Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

I actually prefer this figure to Lando... sorry.

Too bad Captain Faramir doesn't post anymore, he must be having a heart attack right now.

Oh yeah, they had those really boring figures just a month ago - what were they? Darth something....? And that guy in the white plastic - BORRRINGGG!

All those Cap'n Antilles fans are having a banner month... first there was the Diplomatic Mission dio and now this...

That's what I was thinking. Next to Faramir, this is his most wanted figure. Too bad he can't share his joy.

Nothing wrong with ever doing Captain Antilles, but at this point, I'd say if it's not Chewbacca, C-3PO, R2-D2 or Grand Moff Tarkin, it's time to move on from A NEW HOPE. When it was the core I enjoyed it because a fair number were firsts like Old Ben, Vader, Stormies, but getting into 5 second characters from the same movie feels like bad timing, do these guys later after hitting on ESB. Empire really needs figures, just Han and Luke is pretty dull, Leia and Lando from ESB would be great additions to the line.

I think it doesn't look too bad. It's not a "must have", but I think it will looke pretty nice with the Fleet Trooper.

Like Maulfan says, there really is nothing wrong with Captain Antilles and i'll probably be getting on, but it would be amazing if sideshow got to work on a Chewbacca :chew........come on Sideshow, get to work on the walking carpet!!!!!!

There is nothing wrong with him and maybe its just because he followed Stormy and Vader that he seems so boring.

i'll be getting a cap antilles. will look great with the rebel trooper. it's great to get more good guys who arent jedis for a change.

Well, no one can really complain that ANH isn't getting enough attention anymore, can they? It's been one after another from that film hasn't it? (Not complaining mind you).

Considering that recent dio, this one's not too much of a surprise. And Protozauis brough up an interesting thought...I too have to wonder if there was a "Rebel Trio" on the planning boards similar to the Endor on and they decided to spilt them up instead. Who would the third one be? Maybe the green-clad honor guard (as seen in the Throne room ceremony) or maybe General Dodonna in his trendy duster ....

It's nice to see all of the ANH focus and if that's going to continue for a bit, i hope we see some Cantina aliens soon...or a Tusken Raider.
