NGL, I was going to say the same thing as anon about Phasma. Boba Fett wasn't exactly a deep or particularly memorable character beyond appearance; I'd guess his cool design is largely what endeared him to people. (And yea, sold a lot of merchandise. I have a Boba Fett Mighty Mugg figure and it isn't because he's a fantastic character, it's for purely shallow reasons.)

So I do truly believe Disney was hoping Phasma would be a success. I've heard she has a bigger role in the next film, and I have no clue if that was originally part of the plan or something that came about more recently, but I imagine that will help with the popularity.

But, you're still right about Hux. Don't remember how many lines he had either, but it was certainly more than Phasma. I think, again, the big difference is Phasma has that shiny, badass armor, and Hux's costume is more subdued.

Maybe he'll surprise us all and survive!

Also, I googled those Haikyuu!! figures and now I want them all. They're all so well made and pretty! And the chibi ones are absolutely ADORABLE; seriously so cute it hurts. I want them.

IA that most the Star Wars figures I've seen haven't been as nice as I hoped. I find it so disappointing when toys are made ugly or cheap, because I love merchandise, but I don't want something that doesn't look half-decent and at least resemble the character.

I think she wouldn't have been featured on the panels and in interviews if they didn't give her a bigger role in the future (I think she said so herself in a few interviews?) - which makes me extra-worried because Domnhall Gleeson wasn't at a lot of panels/interviews...

I could see Phasma getting a promotion/replacing Hux, actually, if he gets offed. Or she might desert - also an option.
I think they also went really OTT with their First Order/Nazi comparison (that whole speech Hux had on Starkiller Base was so cringey...) so I guess that's another reason why he's not a popular choice for merchandise - everyone else is less overtly space-Nazi-like, with their helmets/masks. Hux has the lines and the costume to make for a very close comparison (I think this was all way too heavy handed and a thing I genuinely didn't enjoy about the movie. It's been done to death and back).

Seriously, the Star Wars figures are so... ugh. The Lego figurine of Hux looks more like the character than the action figure...

Re:Haikyuu!! figures - I have Yamaguchi and Tsukishima of the bigger figures (they have a great size, too, not too huge but not tiny either) and the Yamaguchi and Tsukishima school way chibis and they are so damn adorable.
A friend has the whole Karasuno team sans Yamaguchi and Tsukki by now (Asahi and Daichi were a birthday present for her) - and it's so great seeing them all together because all the sizes fit together so nicely!

I'd love to have Yaku and Lev as well - I think they're not out yet, though. And as much as I love Kenma and Kuroo, their figures weren't quite as nice as the others and they are super expensive because they've been out for a long time and are quite rare by now (but I think they get a second edition). And Yachi and Kiyoko are so super adorable as well! /flails
