3. So, you guys are now going to be making the FX Lightsabers (previously made by Master Replicas). Will be seeing new characters/versions or will you focus on unmade sabers? Will your pricepoints be in line with MR or lower due to your manufacturing capabilities?
Hasbro-
We are very excited to be continuing this great line. Our initial plan is to continue the existing product line, and eventually look at additional opportunities whether that be new/unproduced characters or additional FX products. We have not announced pricing yet, but we do not anticipate a change from the marketplace as it exists today.

Q: Will Hasbro be branching into higher quality Prop replicas (like the toy blasters and lightsabers - but better) now that Master Replicas doesn't have the license in 2008?
A: Yes. We have recently, with Lucasfilm, put out the announcement that we will be picking up the FX Lightsaber business. We couldn't be more excited about taking over this great product line. Our first order of business is to continue with the same items out now. Once we get our arms around that the plan is to see where we can take this exciting category.
