I've never heard this rumour before, but happened by chance to read this (a quote relating to Joy Ride studios in Jan 2003, the same people that made the rest of the renegade action figuers):
Quote: |

Sourced from here.
After a bit more digging I found a picture of the Tanya action figure which was at the Joy Ride 2003 expo:
So it did exist!
Does anyone have any information the matter? Was it simply a mistake? Did any of these get sold? Was Renegade going to include a Red Alert cross-over story line? What does it all mean?
It's obviosuly the Tanya, look at the trade marke pistols...

They never produced the Tanya action figure. That was the single prototype. Only the Havoc made the cut.
I always assumed that Renegade was supposed to have some RA influence especially for Renegade 2 and that it was probably changed or rejected later on.
Havoc is a GDI agent. And Tanya is Allied (from the USA), so I find it easy to believe different storylines and single player campaign variations featuring Tanya and Havoc would have been possible.
It may also be possible that WW were flirting with the idea of which game universe they wanted to convert to an FPS; RA or Tiberian. And so they could have the C&C commando or Tanya from RA as the main playable character.
I guess they choose Tib universe and invented Sakura Obata to make the story interesting.

Was it that Westwood cancelled the Tanya because of production costs?

The map is budding with new ideas and great game-play, AitcraftKiller just has to get to the root of the problem, it seems to have him pretty stumped right now.
Leaf him alone, he's doing a good job. I'm going to go out on a limb here, and say this map isn't fir you.
Anyway, this thread is really starting to lumber along, all this over some sap's map? I thought the game was dead, but this thread at least is poplar. It makes me pine for the days of yonder.
At the end of the day, life's a Beech.. Who wood of thought it?
