Re: Will Hot Toys ever get the SW license?
I bet they do, one day.
They're putting out arguably THE best 12" action figures on the planet. Yeah, the company has its faults - mainly the fact that they only release a very few characters from any given line, and yeah, they're expensive as hell - but no one can deny how beautiful they turn out.
Don't get me wrong, Sideshow's putting out some very solid figures these days too. I guess Medicom is okay too, and I suppose there are some legal/competition issues with having one more 12" company releasing SW figures... but neither of these lines are going to last forever. Knowing how involved George Lucas is with his toy business, I would bet that Hot Toys is on his radar, or at least being watched by some of his minions... One day, I bet it will happen.
