I have been playing TFU II on Wii for a couple of weeks now and cannot recall seeing any of these characters so far.

The chick was in TFU 1 and the other (at least to me) appear to be a mix from the two games.

Darth Phobos first appeared in the 2008 video game Star Wars: The Force Unleashed, voiced by Kari Wahlgren.[8] Phobos was featured in one of the Jedi Temple levels exclusive to the PlayStation 2, PlayStation Portable, and Nintendo Wii versions of the game, which were developed by Krome Studios.

From the Star Wars Wiki: http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Imperial_Navy_commando

None of the characters in this set are from The Force Unleashed II - they are all from the first game.

I guess that's why it just says The Force Unleashed on the packaging. Hasbro's presentation shows the TFUII logo on the slide.  :P

Hence my confusion...thnaks for clearing that up.

Have they announced any plans to make figures from TFU II?

Hasbro made statements around the time of the release of TFU II that they would be looking to do something from that game in 2012.  There hasn't been much beyond that.

Conformation on price?

I pulled the trigger and picked up a few grunts from Tuguri. Looks like my squad will be completed sooner than I thought.

Anybody interested in just the Sith figures or want to sell their troops from this pack, please let me know. I want to army build the troopers.

Ouch.

Hopefully there will be a buy one - get one half off sale while these things are in stock. I took advantage of that kind of sale when the last two Force Unleashed sets came out. It allowed me to essentially army build the sets so I could get multiples of the troopers. May have to bite the bullet on at least one set to open and one set to keep MIB, and then hope that a sale comes along...

The Blu-Ray sets with 4 figures are $24.99...so that fifth figure is worth $15 it seems...at least in TRU's mind.

The Blu-Ray sets are all old figures. No new tooling needed at all.  TFU pack is 4 (?) new figures.  5 figures for 39.99 is still only 8.00 a figure, cheaper than TVC.

It's TRU.  At this point they're a stop I only make if I have to.

I'd be interested in just the Phobos, for sure. Feel free to PM if you are able to find this...thanks!
