This also raises the question of "Which Cannon?", as we're already deep, deep, DEEP, into the realm of EU as opposed to FU, and according to Lucasarts, EU is in no way cannon.

(Admittedly, I'd pay top dollar for a "Boba Fett: Falling Down a Hole and Dying like a Scrub", but that'd just cause fits too.)

I voted no because there are still way too many that have not been made yet.

I also want a Ganner Rhysode with the special ability None Shall Pass!!!!

Great point Darth O! That's true, and though, I don't mind the idea of an alternate universe set, (particularly a collectors set, as opposed to a bunch of reprints with a rare or two like Hoth or Clone Wars Battles) there is plenty left to do.

I know that this particular game, unlike any other collectible game I've played I will be allowed to spend money on consistantly at very least until they release an Ewok on Speeder, and an Ewok Catapult, because my wife is mildly obsessed with them.

I also have a bunch of random crazy stuff I want to see...

Like how they are going to continue to make Obi-Wan's.. but that's another thread.

I'd say yes just to remove any possible restrictions you could run into if only canon characters could be produced. There are so many characters from various StarWars sources and also so many which certain could exist but may never have been named or even destribed that it would be a shame just to leave them out because they are non-canonical. I may not want to see pieces based off of Infinities alterations but I certainly wouldn't mind seeing some unnamed jedi from a wider variety of speicies which may never have shown up on screen anywhere.

Absolutely NO.

A character doesn't have to be named to be canonical, all they have to be is in a canon source. Infinities is really the main source of non-canon characters with just a few other sources. Just because a character is obscure or doesn't appear on screen doesn't mean they aren't canonical. I also agree that unless this game lasts for several decades it will never run out of named characters to produce, there are thousands of characters they can produce, they just won't be well known.

and i disagree with you completely, we need less figs for 10 minutes 2 peoples of the entire time line of star wars, we dont need a luke on speeder just like we dont need a luke with impolsive shot, for that one stormtrooper he killed before the door swooshed closed and the falcon got away. did there really need to be a han solo of hoth and a han solo on tauntaun.

do you realize there is 18 anakin skywalkers (includeing darth vaders), theres only 18 mando figs altogether, and there not even the least amount of figs in a faction.

this game needs some MAJOR BALENCING, make all the faction equal to some degree, make a sith mando old republic seneraio or something

Then it looks like we agree to disagree

Having extra minis of the minis that are known for those who come new to the game is always going to prioritize over obscure minis.

In terms of balance, having more than one of the same unique mini (ie: 10 Vaders) forces people to choose which one to use with their build, and depending on the rest of the squad, the same Vader will not always be the best for every different build. It is good for players to have to make decisions. In my opinion, that is better balance for the game (which keeps players working to perfect squads and strategies of squads) than throwing in some mini who is not even a part of cannon.

Any players who were not around for the first several sets would have little chance of getting a Vader, if they stopped making Vaders after set 3 or 4. Either that, or people would be paying too much to get it. There would be a greater lack of balance in not making another Vader/Luke every so often. I know a lot of people are sick of all the Vaders, Lukes, Obi-Wans, Anakins, Grievouss, etc, but that is where my opinion differs from a lot of people in the community.

If there were some restrictions made on the non-cannon minis that would be made, I wouldn't mind so much as long as they continued to make repeats of the main cannon characters everyone knows. However, if they are not careful they may lose the very characters and concepts that make Star Wars Star Wars.
