Two things :
- Mini-Rig kind of vehicles (both in price and scale),
- the red R2 from Queen Amidala's Starship as a single, carded figure

Sounds both great and cute at the same time !

Huge solemn crowds line Palace Plaza in Theed, the capital of Naboo, as six beautiful white gulaars draw a flower-draped open basket bearing the reamains of a beloved Senator..her fingers finally and forever clasping a snippet of japor....

Darth Talon.  
and...
and...
and...
A decently sculpted Aayla Secura, one that can stand reasonably well by itself. The first Saga one's legs were too far apart and the RotS version can't stand period. 
Is that too much for me to ask? 
Also, the Solo kids would be nice. As would Kyp Durron and Darth Bane.

Actually, in one form or another, they've done a lot of these. Just not necessarily very well.
Detention block was OK, but not great.
Jabba's Palace was cardboard.
Carbon Freezing Chamber was OK, when it was eventually released, but a pain in the backside to find.
Geonosis was almost identical to a Cobra Mountain base.
Theed Hangar would have been a lot better without the silly control-stick QuiGon and gashes in the floor.
Going back a bit, you could argue that the 1980 Imperial Command Base was Echo Base. Wasn't much too it, but it was pretty good for the time.
Also, you could use the old 1978 Deathstar Playset's trash compactor as a detention cell.

- Desann (Jedi Outcast)
- Kyle Katarn (updated w/Jedi Outcast outfit)
- Jan Ors (Jedi Outcast/Dark Forces)
- Lando Calrissian (w/decent articulation)
- Jerec (Jedi Knight)
- Dark Trooper Phase 1 & 2 (Dark Forces)
- Shadow Trooper (Jedi Outcast)
- Reborn (Jedi Outcast)
- Reelo Baruk (Jedi Outcast)
- Tavion (Jedi Outcast)
- Bothan Spy (similar to GBII version)
Am I hung up on wanting characters from the Dark Forces games? Why, yes I am! But tell me that these characters aren't cool in their own right. Plus, they compliment and mix in with much of the existing figures from the OT lines. I've been collecting since the orange carded POTF2 figs first started coming out, and my desires for most of the OT and PT figs have long been fulfilled. I know there's a better chance of seeing a bantha waltz through my front door into my living room than seeing even half this list produced as figures, but we can dream, can't we?
By the way, none of these would need to be "super articulated". Personally, I am not a fan of SA as long as the figs have rotating wrists and maybe bending elbows along with the obvious neck, shoulder, and hip articulation, I'm fine. I prefer figures who are a bit more "solid" like the old POTF2 figures were.

I just need to vent a little bit. One thing that hasbro really seriously needs to start doing is put in a stand for the figures with EVERY SINGLE FIGURE! I am running out of stands, and I know you can buy a set of them now, but still. They make the figures with the holes in the feet, but they don't throw a stand in. I have a two concept fetts now, I bought one I came across tonight, so I could open it up, switch the masks, and put his flame thrower on. But.....had no stand. So what I've had to turn to is take and rotate my stands around. I have to priortize my figures, but there are a lot of good ones now, and my stands are getting dangerously low. I know we have figures we keep in the package, but sometimes you come across a few that you want to break out and display.
Hasbro........for the love of the force.......PUT STANDS IN WITH ALL FIGURES!
Thank you!
The Warlord
Just curiously, does this bother anybody else? Not having a stand with a figure?

Yes, it bothers me. 
What I'm considering doing is buying those magnetic stands I saw at Comic-Con a year or two ago. Now, if only I could find the name of the company and/or their website.

Awhile back I got a pack of 20 stands for half-price from Realstands. It's worth keeping an eye out for their sales.

Well, a lack of stand bothers me slightly, but not as much as having the name of the figure and which film it appears in printed on the stand (especially when they get it wrong). That doesn't work so great when I just want to pull a stand out of my tub to display a random figure...I have to turn it around so you can't see the character name, but you can still read which movie it's from. My EU figures are on ESB and ANH stands, and it's obvious to ME when I look at them...

I want new "A New Hope" Princess Leia figures. My niece who just turned 6 asked me again just like a week or two ago, if I had found a Princess Leia for her yet. So, please Hasbro, make some new ANH Ceremonial Gown and Death Star gown Princess Leia's. My niece will keep hounding me until I find her one. No, she doesn't want Leia as Boussh the Bounty Hunter - I know this for a fact.

What about Endor Leias? Not the Ewok dress, but the one from the speeder bike scene. I think there are still some of those floating around.

Yeah, that sucks when figures are only available in a different outfit like that - I remember when we accidentally bought the vintage Hoth Luke Skywalker for my cousin when he wanted Jedi Knight Luke, or when the only two figures my baby brothers had from POTF2 were the Dagobah Luke and Hoth Han because they weren't stocking the figures in the basic costumes anymore at the time here.
I haven't updated my ANH white gown Leia since the POTF2 version. when I wanted to display a Leia fig, I always had to resort to either the POTF2 Hoth Leia, Bespin Escape Leia, or Endor Leia. They all had okay head sculpts, but none of them is the original...
