Solo was a movie that was overlooked a lot of people which I thought was unfortunate because I really enjoyed it and l thought it was a lot of fun! While people didn't go see it, Hasbro definitely had their fun with it because a whole slew of characters and figures were released for the film that hit every major character and every minor character in the movie too! This list is more of variations of characters we have more than anything else, but that's great! As it shows Hasbro was on top of their game when it comes to this movie. So with Rise of the Skywalker on the horizon, I'm looking into Solo as the next movie in my top 5 most wanted list! I made a list for Solo back when the movie came out, but with Rio, Moloch, the Mudtrooper, and Dryden all made since then, it is time for a new top 5 list!

5. Corellia Han and Vandor Han
There were four new looks for Han in this new film. We of course got his main look very early on, and quickly we were given his Mudtrooper look which worked for army builder the mud trooper as well! The last remaining two are outfits I both like a lot; I love the opening scene on Corellia and the white outfit is a nice change up from the grays and browns of figures lately, as well as fitting well with the Qi'ra that we got! The furry Vandor-1 coat would also be welcome too, representing his time with Beckett's original crew of Val and Rio.

4. Sabacc game aliens
Star Wars films have been known a lot of the time for having a specific group of aliens that draw in collectors. There was Mos Eisley's cantina, Jabba's palace denizens, the podracers, and now we have the Sabacc game aliens from Solo. This group of very interesting, unique creatures were a lot of fun to see sitting around the table and if we never get a full set, I would at least love a Six-Eyes and Scissorpunch.

3. Mudtrooper Val and Beckett
Aside from the Scarif trooper, the Mudtrooper was definitely my favorite new Stormtrooper from Disney's Star Wars films. The version we got through Han's Mudtrooper figure was great, but I would really like the other variations possible as well! Getting both Val and Beckett in their mudtrooper disguises would give us a female trooper, something we're missing so far in the line, as well as the captain albeit with Beckett's head sculpt.

2. Adult Qi'ra
Qi'ra came out of Solo being one of the strongest new characters of the Disney era of Star Wars, and while I love the figure that we got of her it doesn't quite represent her in the movie and would have been better as a figure we got later on. I really hope Solo is still on Hasbro's radar, because getting the version of Qi'ra in the black skirt and white jacket she wore during the brunt of the movie would be awesome.

1. Quay Tolsite
The one technical character that we didn't get from the 6 inch toyline, that we did get in the 5POA toyline, was Quay Tolsite, the alien in charge of the Kessel mines. This was a really cool looking alien and the toyline already had given us several great aliens from the film like Moloch and Rio; so getting Quay would just be another unique figure on the shelf. The robes, geometrical head, and rung of keys would make for a stand out figure.
