Several manufacturers licensed to produce Star Wars toys, figures and collectibles have requested fan feedback to decide which new action figures should be released. One of the responders will even be given the opportunity to design a toy.

Let’s take a look at five different fan polls that will influence the future of some of your favorite Star Wars toys, figures and collectibles lines. Some of these polls will inform the companies, what their fans are most interested in seeing, others will lead to an actual release of the Fan’s Choice figure. The link below will take you to the page where you can vote on Quarter-scale figures from Diamond Select Toys, action figures from Hasbro, USB figures from FunKo, mini-busts from Gentle Giant and ArtFX & statues from Kotobukiya.

Ultimate Quarter-scale figures from Diamond Select Toys

Diamond Select’s Ultimate quarter-scale figures are 18” tall, fully articulated figures includinf cloth costumes and equipped with voice chips, available at very reasonable prices – under $100 a piece. The company is now eager to know which character you want to see next.

Hasbro cares about your opinion.

A bit of history: In 2006, Hasbro teamed up with ToyFare to launch the first ever poll for Star Wars.

“We were interested in gauging the pulse of what made fans tick in a post-Episode III world,” says Hasbro Star Wars Brand Manager Derryl DePriest, “so we literally threw open the doors and asked fans to nominate their top 25 favorite Star Wars figures that they wanted to see made.”

Hasbro announced that the overall winner of the poll would be included their next year’s action figures line.

Funko USB flash drive figures

In order to satisfy all Star Wars fans’ need for convenient data storage, FunKo has created the line of Star Wars USB figures in the style of their famous bobbleheads. Currently you can choose Darth Vader, Yoda, Boba Fett or Stormtrooper. Do you want to help them decide who will be next?

Gentle Giant Mini-Busts

Gentle Giant already seems to have released every Star Wars character imaginable in their mini-bust line, but it’s not the case yet. Now they want you to tell them who you’d like to see done next.

Kotobukiya ArtFX & Statues

Kotobukiya, Japan’s number 1 collector toy company, has been very successful with their Clone Wars based ArtFX and statues, that’s not enough. You can now cast your vote for your favorite era you’d like them to concentrate on. You can select from classic trilogy, the expanded universe (including all the comics and books), the prequels or more animated Clone Wars.
