- The new roleplay Boba Fett helmet is great! It’s sure to be a hit with kids and fans of the bounty hunter. It does seem odd that this would be the next in line when the previous helmets have been kid-centric Clone Wars helmets. Was this done for the 30th anniversary of “The Empire Strikes Back” or is there something you know about season 3 of “The Clone Wars” that you aren’t telling us?
- We heard something in a previous Q&A about some comic packs and Entertainment Earth. Can you elaborate on this?
- It was done for the 30th Anniversary of The Empire Strikes Back, but that by itself was not enough to get it into production. The introduction of Boba Fett in the animated Clone Wars as a critical element that added heat to Boba’s legacy, especially amongst kids, the key target market.
- Yes! We have good news on the Comic Pack front; Entertainment Earth will be carrying all four of the Comic Packs that had been developed but set aside as the mainline assortment ran out of time before it was due to leave retail. The details on these packs will be announced by Entertainment Earth…we could not be more excited that this sensational lineup has found a great partner to deliver these sets to fans.
