What do you hope for in Attakus' Series V?

Since so many of us are desperately waiting for Attakus to issue some news of their Series V statues, I figured I'd like to see what some of us hope to see in Series V.

They already said that with the Mint in Box poll they would be issuing Commander Cody, Boba Fett (version 2) and the Biker Scout with Speeder Bike. Since the series has been consisting of 10 statues, theat leave 7 more unaccounted for.

That being said, who'd be willing to share in the top ten statues (other than the 3 above) we're hoping to see when they do annouce it.

Mine are as follows:
1. Snowtrooper
2. AT-AT Driver
3. Death Star Gunner
4. Bossk
5. Leia as Boushh
6. Greedo
7. Count Dooku

Senate Guard would be my "Exclusive Edition" statue - only because I needed an 11th.

Anyone else interested in joining in this discussion?

Its not true that all series are 10 statues, Series 1 was 6, series 2 7, 3 was 11 and 4 was 7, 8 or 9 depending on how you count.

Its not a question of what each one wants, it has to be realistic too. Some time ago Ivo (Darth Mystery) and I started to think about criteria each had to series met:


- One addition to the Jabba Diorama scene
- One droid like
- One Imperial Trooper of some sort
- One core dark side character
- At least one prequel character (we know that attakus loves the OT more, so you would expect more OT pieces than PT)

Judging from this list you can (IMHO) derive two certainties:
1)The only main core guy which hasnt been done is Dooku.
2)The only logical addition to the Jabba Scene would be Lando or to lesser extent Leia as Boushh (however we allready have a leia for the Jabba scene).

As a wishlist this would lead:
3)an AT AT driver as trooper (however we are allready getting two troopers from the polls)
4)a Droideka as a droid but as I am a droid fanatic - any droid would do

The rest is just guessing, however - any new Attakus piece would do at this time tbh

Guys, don't put all your energy in series 5. It's all hopeless.

I'd be happy with a firm ship date for the long awaited Probe Droid. Bring it on already...

Wow, Josh. Kudos to you man. You really thought that through. I didn't realize there was such a definitve pattern to it.

Although I agree about Count Dooku and Lando Skiff Guard (good call on that one), I'm not overly thrilled about the human likeness statues. If Dooku looked good, I'd grab that in a heartbeat....but I don't count on it (no pun intended). Therefore I had to exclude them from what I wish for as a Series V.
