Hot Toys making Star Wars 1:6 figures will have pros and cons.
Pros:
- high quality figures
- the face sculpts and paint apps will be in most cases above SS quality
- articulation on figures would beat the one on SS figures
Cons:
- high price (but SS is getting close to HT prices)
- not too many niche characters alas
And I would totally love HT Star Wars toys!!

FYI guys, it doesn't say anything on their Facebook page about Star Wars. This is just more fanboy creampie crap.
Hence, why I put the "?" in the thread title. I really hope that they're just using that phrase half-heartedly and are unknowingly jerking our chain.
Or "DX04" somehow meant Superman.
...and winter means before January in looney land.

and yeah, craziness. . . in a good way.

Still I would love HT Star Wars toys!!
Actually, HT has LESS articulation, especially with the newer bodies.
They might very well be. I wouldn't get those hopes up too high. Again, I think it'll be something like Chewbacca and/or the droids. Not the license.

Yeah, and that means everything. Just like the last teaser with the spoon meant the Matrix to everyone. Look how pissed off they got when it wasn't!
I wasn't keeping up with that, what did that spoon represent?

Yeah, and they put that quote in all caps too just to scream they've got the Star Wars license. A full, official announcement probably won't come down until early 2011 but you just know one's coming.

An obscure license from a Japanese comic.
Once again, for the cheap seats. That license belongs to Hasbro. Not Sideshow.

It may be, but still those bodies won't be floppy like rag dolls.

No, they'll be all but unposeable, like statues.

It's one of two "go-to" slams for HT fanboys. "When all else fails, bash the Pro/paint!"

My SS stormies won't hold a simple pose without their stands. Except the Commander which is ok, but not great. The Sandtroopers are a bit better but with the weight of the backpack they also need a stand. Vader stands on his own, same with Praji and Piett so no problems there.

Give me HT Darth Vader & Anakin Skywalker (w/ sith eyes) then I'm good w/ the rest hahaha!

Seem that way.
Worst body I ever got from SS was on gtg and that was a buck body.
