*Knock on wood

As much as I love old canon… Luke and Anakin figures *are* boring, so

Me thinks thou doth protest too much – it happened, and you EU zealots helped it happen – fact.

I don’t get how people become infuriated at ANY character on these lists. It’s a toy figure slated to fill one measly slot in a future wave. We’ve been inundated with toy figures for decades and will continue to receive wave after wave in perpetuity. Is one choice of character really worth getting angry over?

Being willing to do something and actually doing it are two separate things. From the 100s of submissions we received for our portion of the poll, we didn’t even get 25 votes (valid and/or rejected) for Ben so either the dozens of people in that group didn’t bother to vote here or they weren’t really as committed to “the cause” as they claimed.

OR Lucasfilm caught wind of it, and said NO Ben Skywalker cause it will cause confusion with Ben Solo

But why would anyone waste time doing that when there were over 100 people just from one small group willing to vote for Ben? And I saw plenty of people saying they voted for Ben without even knowing that there was a campaign for him.

Each person was allowed one vote PER email address. It’s not too hard to abuse that rule by submitting votes via personal email, work email and setting up a few throwaway Gmail addresses to “stuff” the ballots.
