It figures.  Most of the speculation here was somewhat unrealistic and optimistic.  Hasblow has never put amazing figures in a BP.  True that recently they have been getting better with SA clones in there but that is only b/c the SA clone 41 mold was a basic fig not a VOTC/VTSC.

I wish we get more bang for our buck but the advantage is that if the BP sucks then you do not have to buy it.  After all we have free will, well sorta.  Out of those crappy BPs that came out last year I only got the Coruscant one and now the Senate one, the rest I just ignored. :o

The only good thing I can see in this set is that I do not have to buy it ;D

Ditto.

Between this and the "Sith Lord Attack" set, that's $40-50 I'll save.   :)

who else, fromthe first fuzzy pictures,  was so hoping that it actually came with the skiff?  wait sorry it's hasbro.   >:(  this is one of the better presentations/boxing of a battle pack though, make good for display.

Yeah, if this came with the skiff I'd definitely be picking it up.  One of the OT "vehicles" I'm still missing.  As it stands, I have all of these figures so I'll pass as well.  The battle packs aren't a terrible idea, but they need to spruce some of them up a little bit with a better figure selection and/or accessories.

I'll be passing, but those pics make me realize how we desperately need a new Weequay skiff guard figure.
