Top 5 wanted Star Wars Micro Galaxy Squadron Separatist droid ships

One of my favorite designed factions from the Star Wars universe is certainly the Separatist armada from the Star Wars prequel trilogy! The droid army and every vehicle in their arsenal have some great designs that make them some of the most fun and unique ships in the Star Wars universe! We've dipped our toes into the Confederacy garage but I'm hoping Jazwares' Micro Galaxy Squadron toyline will dive headlong into this side of the galaxy, especially with how many Republic Clone and Jedi ships we've gotten so far!



5. Vulture Droid

We've seen this design appear in the cardstock art of so many releases at this point, and typically it seems that once a ship design it used for cardstock artwork on the packaging it is either out in the line or coming out in the next wave or 2. So I'm expecting the Vulture Droid to come out soon in either waves 4 or 5, and I'm really excited for when it does to have droid starships to go up against the several Jedi starfighters we've gotten at this point! I'm especially interested to see if it will include the ability to maneuver into its "walking" configuration. 



4. Tri-Fighter

Another droid starship I'd love to see in the line would be the Tri-Fighter, a ship with three curved half-rings encircling the main "cockpit" of the design. It's mosquito-like "face" design is a really fun point about the figure as well, and including Buzz droids as the mini figures for this one would interact well with other prequel era ships we've already gotten in the line.

Working treads on this droid vehicle would be awesome as it envelopes the entirety of the ship's hull! I remember utilizing this vehicle all the time in the original Star Wars Battlefront 2 videogame on Kashyyyk and racing through the sands and water. Even if the treads are static on a potential figure in this line for this design, it would still be a great addition to the Separatist war arsenal that we've started with the STAP and AAT!



2. MTT Tank

This one has some of the most potential for an excitedly fun amount of play features. In the movie it was seen hauling loads of Battle Droids, and if a potential figure can carry out the same play features it could be a ton of fun! I know the mini figures we get wouldn't have the capability of condensing down like the droids in the movie did, so either accommodating the current style of mini figures, or including unique condensed sculpts seems to be the way to go. 



1. Hailfire

Boasting two humongous chain wheels, the Hailfire droid is one that I had a figure of back when the Clone Wars tv show was airing and it became one of my all-time favorite droid designs from the prequels! I love the wheels of course, the hefty missile launcher pods situated on the cockpit itself, and the way it all pops apart when it explodes. Getting an updated version of this vehicle through the Micro Galaxy Squadron toyline would be a great love letter to my childhood and all the time I pulled the Hailfire toy apart!

Top 5 most wanted Star Wars the Black Series aliens from The Phantom Menace

Image
The prequel love is very strong recently in Star Wars the Black Series, the line of 6 inch collection figures covering the Star Wars franchise. It felt like, as a prequel fan, that I was gasping for prequel figures in the collection not only a year ago but now we've had a flood of them, with another flood quickly coming! It's gotten me more excited for the line than I've been in a long time, and I've been thinking about some choice prequel characters I'd like to see! Aliens are getting a bit of a resurgence in the line as well, with prequel Jedi, Moloch, Rio, and a few others, so what better list to make than my most wanted aliens from the prequels? For this post I'm focusing in on Phantom Menace which had a great selection of aliens! And here are my top 5!

Top 5 most wanted NECA Back to the Future figures

NECA gave us a huge surprise this year with the reveal of a full range of action figures for the Back to the Future franchise! This is definitely one of the most popular franchises out there and I didn't know that I needed action figures for it until now! So far we've had a couple of reveals in the form of Marty from the first movie, Marty in the second movie, Marty in his spaceman costume, and then Biff from the first movie. The movies don't have the biggest cast that are ideal for action figure treatment, but I've thought up five from the three movies that need to come into the line after these four!

Top 5 most wanted Jakks Pacific Sonic Badniks vol 2

Image
(Images Source) We have been getting more and more robotic Badniks in Jakks Pacific's line of Sonic figures which is very exciting! Primary characters are great, but getting more of the background designs to fill out the scenes is awesome and we've recently got some Badniks I was eagerly waiting for like the Burrobot, Newtron, and most recently the Caterkiller!! Eggman's army is packed to the brim though with all kinds of robotic enemies, and these are five more I hope to eventually see! 5. Jaws The Chopper is not the most posable of the Badniks that we've gotten so far (not that many are very posable to begin with), but it is such a classic design from the series and another underwater enemy would be the Jaws. With Jakks Pacific steadily working through giving us little playsets themed around different levels, a set themed around the underwater sequences would be the perfect way to get this guy into the line. 4. Roller With complete transparency, I will admit that thes
