I was all set to wrap up my hardcore figure collecting, but I'm thinking that this will be my last "major" Hasbro purchase. If it comes down between me having to buy either this or the AT-TE, then I'm going with the Falcon all the way.

GH has another pic up, this time it appears to be the back of the box
and answers some much needed questions

Don't underestimate the spending power of an adult when it comes to high dollar items. Just because you wouldn't drop that kinda cash, doesn't mean some other Mom or Dad wouldn't.

Agreed... not everyone is going to be willing to shell that sort of dough out for themselves or for their kids (or both, ha ha)... I remember, my parents didn't have a problem getting me large items when I was a kid (Defiant Space Shutte... wow... didn't get much else that Christmas, but that sucker was so huge and awesome that I didn't care)... even though they really couldn't afford it, they still found a way to do it... my mom worked, and my dad worked two jobs to be able to provide for the family.  

I know that when my kid's a little older, I'll do my best to be able to do the same thing for him to when it's something he really wants.  Of course you don't want to overly spoil your kids, but I want my kid to have just as good, if not a better childhood experience than I had.

I like the one photo of Leia on her knees while Luke's on the bed.

OK, now we have three production quality photos - was this an intentional leak?

I wonder if GH is purposely releasing pics slowly on this...

If your website went for months and months without any big scoops, and then one day you had one like this, wouldn't you want to spread it out as long as possible, to keep people coming back?  You wouldn't want to blow your load all at once, would you?
