I remember being a little bummed it didn't come out, though.  Good thing it didn't!

Yeah, the repainted POTF2 RFT is pretty bad.

I'd still like to see that set though, just as a deluxe set with the new Tech figure. I'd love to have all of those accessories!

Yeah, the accessories definitely made that set. They alone might have been worth it.

Looks a little bland, especially the white area behind the figure. Too bad they didn't incorporate a scene backdrop like the OTC/TSC cards had.  :-\

No kidding. That sure is one boring looking card. I didn't like the Legacy cards, and these new ones suck too. I really liked the 30AC cards and the old OTC cards, it's too bad they didn't go back to that.

The cards actually IMO look very neat. I like how the package is smaller, too large packages (like TLC white packaging) look plain strange. As for the SDCC exclusives, the Luke Skywalker was just a stupid idea.   :'( A slot for a different exclusive could have been filled in there. The Luke Skywalker figure should have been a SW Shop exclusive. The choice Hasbro made for the release is strange, but I guess it's what collectors buy. The Stormtrooper Commander figure is a GOOD choice, since many collectors missed out on it. And, actually, one question....

HOW COME HASBRO KEEPS INCLUDING VADER'S LIGHTSABER HILT WITH RELEASES OF X-WING PILOT LUKE??!!  ???
