They need to make some minis of the less inspired heroes and villains from the EU including, but not limited to:

Hethrir
Kueller
Waru
Thracken Sal-Solo
Jaxxon
Beldorion
Dzym
Jodo Kast
Rokur Gepta
Prince Isolder
Lord Nyax (Irek Ismaren) - this guy would have like Sextuple attack
some kind of Ssi-Ruuk
Garris Shrike


Some cool pieces, though, would be:
D'harhan
Gallandro
Kar Vastor
Egome Fass
Adalric Brandl
Ysanne Isard


Check Wookieepedia if some of these don't ring a bell. Then you'll see what I mean.

I'd love to see some Ssi-Ruuk pieces. They'd probably fall in the Fringe faction. And Ysanne Isard is a piece I've always thought they should have put in earlier sets. Imperial Entanglements seemed like it would be the one, but I was wrong.

How about some Common and Uncommon Jedi Masters that have CE's for other Jedi. For example, you could have a Jedi Guardian Master that grants Lightsaber sweep, a Jedi Consular Master that bumps Lightsaber deflect up to Lightsaber Reflect, or a Jedi Sentinel Master that gives Force Cloak...

I want as many NR unique Jedi as possible, but we need more commons and uncommons for Jedi armies.

I agree for somthing like that to happen but it will most likley be for old republic,

and if there are not going to be that many sith or mandos they all should be unique.

I figure that the Mandos will get a set in the future to flesh them out (I hope). They could make Masters for the Sith just as easily as for the Jedi. Like some Marauder Masters that grant Sith Rage or something like that. The Jedi Masters don't have to be restricted to the OR, they could make some Common & Uncommon Masters for all factions that support force users... But I agree Awesome, they probably would restrict them to the OR. Jedi were more common in those days, but so were Sith... but these are just pieces that I want to see, I don't hold any illusions that we'll see anything like this in Jedi Academy.

Yeah, the sith kind would grant somthing to boost the attack or damage,
sith are attackers and old republic are defenders usually.

but with the newer sets they have been making like 1-5 sith so the sith are probably going to all be unique.

Vong will see alot more action now, this set is going to be mainly about NR vs Vong.

Doubtful. We might get one or 2 non-unique Vong (a Voxyn would go well with the theme,imo). NR, Sith, OR, and Republic will likely be the main focus, with hopefully a token Imp and Sep.

Best hope for Vong is for Invasion to be an great seller, we might get a set a year later.

I read in an interview w/Rob & Sara on the Holocron that they didn't have any plans for Unique Yuuzhan Vong to be made this year (2009), so don't get your hopes up...

That would SUCK, pretty much all they have is non uniques and they (except for the jedi hunter) suck. the uniques are what makes them good.

Here is the interview:

http://forums.gleemax.com/showthread.php?t=1103317

Question # 30

30. Will the Yuuzhan Vong faction get some more uniques to fill in the void?

ROB: Not in the coming year

Strongly disagree. They have great Non-uniques. A fig with 30 HP, some DR, and a 50/50 chance of hitting a living enemy within 6, for only 8 points is amazing. And the Advance Scout is awesome. Sure, the uniques are helpful, but they have 3, and you generally won't be running them all.

All that being said, I agree w/Sithborg on the effectiveness of the Vong commons & uncommons. I esp. like the Elite Warrior as he can gain Dbl Attk from the Subaltern. They need help w/their low attack scores and dmg output for the most part. As the Vong had many Unique personalities Shimrra, Nas Choka, Shedao Shai... just to name a few... I would love to see them get more uniques.

Actually, they don't. The Subaltern's CE states explicitly that YV Warriors gain Double Attack. Since it's explicit, YV Elite Warriors don't count as "YV Warriors." Although "Warrior" is in the name of the YV Elite Warrior, it doesn't fit the syntax of the CE to affect them. It's not like "trooper followers" gain X bonus. Trust me, that would have made the EWs really really good and actually find a reason for the Subaltern outside of Razorbug. But, alas, the YV EW doesn't count as a YVW for terms of the Subaltern's CE.

Are you sure? Is that an Official ruling? I mean They're Yuuzhan Vong, and they have warrior in the name... I always thought that Elite Clone troopers counted as clone troopers... Elite Wookie Warriors count as Wookie Warriors and so on. It just makes common sense... I thought there was a ruling stating that if it's part of the name, then it counts.

Matter of Fact, the exact wording of the name is
"Yuuzhan Vong Elite Warrior"

Yuuzhan Vong and Warrior are in the name. That counts as far as I'm concerned. Anybody have an official ruling on this?

Universe Commander List page 2

It's the only list I can access while at work. However, if it in the Archives, you can be sure it's been confirmed. Just look for YV Subaltern.

That's the way I've always treated them. Same with anything else that has "Elite" in it's name like Lord ZOS said.
