Haha. 

Thanks man...  Gives me hope for 2.  I hadn't seen anything mentioned...  Kinda like the Scanner set isn't seemingly 2 Scanner techsn ow.  I prefer that though.

Yeah the one negative about this set is that it's a K-Mart exclusive. Closest K-Mart is 8 hours away. We do have a Sears Grand that stocks K-Mart exclusive toys but I got lucky finding the AT-ST and Ewok sets from last year... they restock the toy section about once a year I think.

Tha 'Scum is saying there's no pictures of the set because it wasn't the final product. They also say the Ewoks included are named "Chubbray and Stemzee"

So mark two of the ROTJ wish list....ha-ha.

Pictures at last!

Looks decent enough. Maybe the Ewoks could be more exciting, both in coloration and gear. They used one newer Ewok body at least.

It might just be because of the vinty box, or the fact that I always wanted all the ewok stuff when I was a kid, but I'm pretty excited for this one.  Again, since its a KMart exclusive, I'll be looking for help...but it is pretty cool.

Man, Hasbro has been knocking the Ewoks out of the park lately.  I wish every exclusive turned out as great as the last few Ewok sets have.  I'm loving the huge tribe of 'woks I've got now.  :)

How accurate are the ewoks to the pult?  I like the calico with the white on his face.  :)  now to see the imperials.

There is a shot on Wookieepedia with an Ewok that has a facial fur pattern similar (definitely not Lumat)

Wow. That is nice. I actually totally forgot about this ewok and at-st driver KMart stuff last year. Went over to eBay expecting to have to lube up, but they're actually only $15 for each set. That is a lot cheaper than last year. Maybe even better than the MSRP?

Winning.

Sets were $15 retail...  I got a few for $10 all ATST guys though ironically though Ewoks lingered longer.  The ATST guys I got seemed to be returns or lost in the stock room then bam.  Weird.  Still ATST's here.

Good question.  These were among the items that we didn't see photos of from Toy Fair.  I'm thinking post Comic Con / Q3.  When did the AT-ST crew and Hijackers hit K-Mart stores?  IIRC, that might have been OCT '12 or so.  Would K-Mart have a similar schedule this year, too?

Sweet. I saw this thread this morning and remembered I never picked them up. Got em on ebay for $15 each and was stoked.

Will somebody hurry up and take a picture of the back of the Ewok box already?!?  Be nice to get some names for those little fuzzballs...

And $20 seems like a good price for this considering the last few carded ewoks were singles for $10.
