    There's a new fan choice figure to vote for over at Hasbro.com

    This time around the choices are:

    General Rieekan (Hoth General)

    Nym (alien from Starfighter game?)

    Rebel Soldier in Scout trooper disguise

    Imperial Dignitary

    Stormtrooper (Ralph McQuarrie concept)

    I voted for the Imperial Dignitary. I'm not a fan of the EU, and the rebel soldier in disguise doesn't seem that cool to me. And General Rieekan is, well, it was a toss up between him and the dignitary.

    Who are you/did you vote for?

    It was between General Rieekan and the Imperial Dignitary for me, too. I went with Rieekan because the way I see it, he had lines in the movie, and was more involved with the plot than the Dignitary was. As of when I voted (just before writing this post), the poll results were as follows:


    General Rieekan: 26 %
    Nym: 11 %
    Rebel Soldier in Scout Trooper Disguise: 7 %
    Imperial Dignitary: 28 %
    Stormtrooper (McQuarrie Concept Design): 28 %

    If the Rebel disquised as Biker Scout comes with a helmet that looks good and the right gun with a leg holster, I'll go that route. That way, you get two figures in one: Biker Scout and Rebel Disguised as one...

    I voted for Imperial Dignitary, since they have never made any of 'em in the newer line of figures. Might as well make one - or make all 3-4 of 'em. :D

    I voted for the concept art Stormtrooper. It's an action figure form concept art. How cool is that but he better have that lightsaber

    I voted for the stormtrooper. It looks too cool to pass up.
    And I don't really want a Dignitary that bad.

    Well seems everyone wants that Imperial dignitary.

    Thats to bad. I was torn between Nym and the concept stormtrooper. I figured Nym didn't have a chance though :(

    I voted for Riekkan just because I've always liked that character and wanted more Hoth figures. The Dignitary is just some guy in a dress. If they were going to make a new Imperial they could have made Ozell or Needa.

    The Stormtrooper looked good but it just seemed to similar to the spacetrooper figure.

    Its a tough one.
    I want to go with Nym but the stormtrooper is awesome (if he comes with that light sabre).
    If he comes with the sabre, yes , but if not, i'd prefer Nym.
    *thinks for a while longer*
    O.K, i voted for the Stormtrooper.
    If just for the sabre.
    The stats are as follows:
    Imperial Dignitary (return of the jedi) 32%
    General Rieekan (the empire strikes back) 27%
    Stormtrooper (art design) 25%
    Nym (expanded universe) 11%
    Rebel Trooper in Scout Trooper Disguise (return of the jedi) 5%

    Go Stormtrooper...the light sabre does it for me.

    They already made Needa I believe...

    I know they made Piett, Motti and Tarkin but I don't think they've made a Needa for the current line.

    How come they have added Rieekan for a second time.
    Gee Hasbro must really want to make that figure.

    Vote Dignatary! We need people from the films more than a concept art trooper, an eu character, or a weird disguised biker scout that wasn't in the film.
