Picked up the last GH 2 pack I needed last night - Luke / Gamorrean Guard.  Man, the GG is absolutely huge, both height wise and girth wise.  I don't remember the Pig Guards being almost 7 feet tall  ???

Found my last couple of sets this past weekend as well, so I'm finally (temporarily) caught up.  Stumbled upon a ton more of all 3 of the newest sets today at my local Target.  Unfortunately, Target's jacked their prices up on them from $4.79 to a whopping $5.99 now.  Bastards.

On a separate note, and one that I've probably already asked:

Are there any differences between the new X-Wing or Millenium Falcon (or their respective figures) and the originally released versions?  The originals didn't have electronics did they?  Is that the only difference?

The new Falcon is the exact same as the previous release, but doesn't come with the Stormtrooper figure. 

The X-Wing is all new with electronics.

Picked up the Tatooine wave packs last night (TRU - $5.99).

I agree that the Gam Guard is a bit over-sized (he towers over the rest, especially the ladies and Yoda).

I think my favorite of the bunch though is Lando.  His little removable helmet and sculpt are great!  Nice to finally have Lando in the line-up.

Matt, the Falcon is the same on both releases.  The only difference is the 2nd release did not have the Stormtrooper.  The trooper is the same as the current release.  They both have the same copyright stamp. 

The Original X-Wing has no electronics and comes with a Vader fig.  The only difference on the fig is this one has no stitching on the cape which makes the cape appear different, which it kind of is.  Someone also told me that the wings on the new X-Wing were in the open position (fixed).  But I could not tell by the box.

Found the X-Wing at Target today and also found the Jawa/Tusken Raider & Lando/Skiff Guard at WalMart.  Still need Luke/GG and the Stormie 2pak.

Different winning bidders on both.

AFA sucks and so does the grading system thing. I really just do no tlike it. People bidding on those are just sick. Why would they ever do such a thing is beyond me.

All caught up for the time being on these thanks again to Mikey.  As I mentioned to him it's a lot of fun dropping new figures in the basket that houses all the GH stuff.  My daughter gets quite excited in finding the new stuff and needs to know the names of all the characters.  Subtle indoctrination at it's finest.  I do know she will be disappointed at no new female figures though.  Think I'll tell her the Jawa is female. ;)
