See some new Legends figs rumored on Scum's front page including Clone Wars Cody...  THIS will have my attention even at 5POA...  I'll customize.  If I see a cheap Cody at the show this weekend I'm nabbing him just to have for a base for a Clone Wars version.

There are others in the list of interest...  Chewie, Han, and apparantly a return to Battledroid 2-packs but I assume they'll be shoddy 5 POA sculpts.

Won't these have old style POTF style necks/heads? A phase 1 Cody might be a pain to customize unless his helmet is removable. Assuming it's phase one.

Eh, if it's easy to customize it's not always really a custom. :)

I have to admit, having the OT characters included (especially Han/Chewie) has me a little more interested in this line.  Not sure if I'll pick up any of those initial ROTS/AOTC figures, but unless the OT ones are horrible, I might be in on some of these.  We'll have to see what they look like.  Since we already have pretty great articulated versions of these already, it makes it easier to give a little more leeway to a line like this.  Plus, it is nice seeing a $6 pricepoint on SW figures again, even if they are scaled back articulation-wise.

If a figure's really stellar looking I'm open to it, but I mean I really have to see something stellar.  Otherwise these are fodder to me, not much more.  The price eases that pill enough, but I mean VOTC Han's good enough for me so would I want another Han that isn't as articulated?  I'd need a higher articulation count, thigh strap, better headsculpt, removable vest...  That's what I need for a new ANH Han to hit my shelf. 

A 5 POA figure that maybe has a nice likeness and not much else improved, isn't gonna cut it.

Now, NEW figures...  Even at 5 POA, like a CW Cody, would get my attention.  Especially if they at least feature a removable helmet or something.
