Are they actually going to release other new stuff along with this? Because if there was some new Joe stuff that would be rad.

IF the didnt have that horrid animated Dexters lab look and just looked like normal figures then perhaps but that animated crap never worked the first time, but hasbro is only offering the animated star wars figures(hence the clearancing at major retailers) so looks like this is their Modus Operandi from now on. Guess that hiatus rumor is gonna be true huh? ;)

BMF? You must mean the "bad mother f*&#$" Samuel L. Jackson figure. What's his name, Jedi something or other.

If so, it would be smart marketing. Builds up demand for the regular-type figures. Look how Disney cleans up when they stop selling and then re-release their cartoons every few years.

Going by the release schedule Hasbro supplied, the Animated Clone Wars figures are only one little bit of product to be released on the 26th. They're also releaseing:
Wave 1 Legacy collection/Build a Driod 12 figures
Wave 1 Legends (Mostly just repacks) 11 figures
Evolutions 3 packs (2 are repacks, but the other 4 are new)

These are only the "normal" looking figures

There's a lot more than the animated figures. The legacy line is still moving forward and the Sarlac Pit is pretty sweet too. The Clone Wars look is more like TF Animated alongside TF Universe. Check out any toy sites for all of Hasbro's SDCC previews

well shogi i honestly had no idea about the legacy stuff so i humbly stand corrected. :>

[fireflyguy]

I'm going, but I highly doubt I'll buy anything. I'm only going to our WM, our TRU isn't participating. I want to get a Millenium Falcon, but I don't wanna/can't pay $150 for it, so I might get it later, I might not. I'm pretty set on gettin' more Joe stuff, and if WM happens to get a new wave in that they stock at midnight, so be it. If not, I'll keep looking.

[fireflyguy]

BTW, are there any sneak peeks of what these figs look like?

[Paul]

I'm def going. I'm hoping it will make a good story for my blog and I'm PRAYING I can get my hands on a Scuba Clone Trooper. I want one mega bad.

[Mr. Focus]

Am I going...ha, I'm senting up my tent with one hand and posting on my iPhone in the other hand! I'm not into Star Wars but that BMF will fit quite well into my Joe verse and thanks to G.I.Eddie forcing my to watch 'Clone Wars' vol. 1&2, before that I had never seen an episode of the animated series, I HAVE to buy Mace Windu, 8 clone troopers 4 ARC troopers aka Captain Rex, General Grievous, 8 Super Battle Droids, 8 Destroyer Droids and wait on the armored General Kenobi, Commander Fordo and the upcoming Wal-Mart exclusive Republic gunship. No, really I'm not into Star Wars!

Besides being the best toy giveaway for the launch of Clone Wars, what's the big deal with Holo Grievous?
