Where are Leia and Amidala?

I'm enrolled in several online survey programs because I have far more opinions than I know what to do with. Tonight's survey was about an upcoming line of children's toys based on the Star Wars movies. I dutifully recorded my opinions on the various iterations of action figures, gleefully checking boxes and rating my interest. It wasn't until later that I realized out of the entire set of 15 figurines, not a single one was female. Arguably, the Star Wars universe has only really spawned two female main characters, but all the more reason for those two to be represented.

Why would you make Jango Fett available before you made a Princess Leia toy? (Especially if you can work in that golden bikini.)

Don't forget Mon Mothma!

I did forget her! Poor Mon Mothma. I wonder if she's ever had an action figure. She didn't have much "action".
