Forget it I found it.

I think it's a fake. There is Deadpool in there with the date 2016 and sold out on it. Why would they have that in a 2018 catalogue.

Other than that, nothing new or astounding.

That's actually not the most recent one, at least that I saw earlier this morning. The one I saw was for 2018-2019. Let me see if I can find it again.

That would be sad.

Out of curiosity, what else doesn't appear -- are Poe and Phasma still shown from TLJ? I suppose Baze is also a no-show. What about the Tank Trooper?

Or 3-P.O.- red arm and all.

None of those appeared.

Here, this is the most recent one.

At least Endor Luke and Leia are still there I guess.

This has 2017 stuff in it too. Paper catalogues have long lead times. We should see a lot of new announcements over next 6 months for sure.

This guy, The Gonk and Baze are the ones I really want to see get made. I would pre order all 3 instantly.

A lot missing that they took preorders on already (i.e. Royal Guard, Preatorian Guard, etc)... so it means nothing.

 

[RandomHero]

True, but you'd think at least one of the tank commander, regular Shoretrooper, Baze, etc would have made it in there.

Still, you make a good point.

HT likely has limited room in that catalogue -- so some things have to go. First, ones that have been shown multiple times before.

BTW, thank you very much for posting those pictures.

 

[Centrocal]

were there any new license announcements in the back?

 

[dukefett]

I kind of find it funny how they make these super accurate, high end line of figures and their only other line are cosbabys. No middle ground haha. I wonder what a 1/12 scale line by them would look like.

ROTJ Stormtrooper is missing as well. No way HTs will skip this one.

Yeah thanks RandomHero. interesting, however unfortunately nothing spectacularly new.

@WorGar - the link I posted had the Imperial and Praetorian Guard, so you're very likely right on the space. I guess SDCC is going to be the place to see them all and any new ones.

However I still expect we'll have some reveals on Solo and Deadpool in the next weeks. Funny that they show the old Deadpool. Perhaps this is a type of placeholder for the figures coming for DP2 ?

edit - same goes for Dr Strange. Placeholder, but coming.

Only thing that is strange is 3 Black Panthers ??? Old, new BP movie version and IW version I guess ??

No, basically just a massive Disney franchise catelogue.

I think the other figure there is Killmonger.

Howard Chan said in a recent interview that not all characters will be made so that may be it. He also said the new Hulkbuster is kind of a placeholder as they do not have enough info to work with.

Oh yeah -- and Poe too. No Phasma though. She didn't even make the online catalogue.

Damn two years. And no sign of him. Hot Toys, Hot Toys, sometimes i hate you.

I think you made us all die inside a little bit by bumping this thread with a fruitless post.

I don't want to be disappointed alone.
