Found the Stormtrooper Han, Jawa, Ben and the Cantina aliens at Walmart last night.  They had doubles of Han and the Spacetrooper, which is odd, I'd expect the Spacetrooper to be most popular...  But no Luke. He's the only one I still need from the ANH wave.

On Friday I scored a set of the new general release EU Comic 2-packs (Luke/Deena, Wedge/Bothan, Mundi/Hett).

Unexpectedly came across the Wedge/Bothan 2-pack today.

The Bothan is really really nice, and I would army build, if it weren't for the piece of crud that is the Wedge figure packed in with it.  Wedge's legs aren't even, and the lack of ankle articulation makes it impossible to correct.

Man if this were a Bothan 2 pack, I'd go nuts.  Like with the Amanin pack  :D

Finally found the new Luke/Deena Comic pack, at Target, and received my Joker Squad set.

Didn't someone say that the Wedge legs were the sucky "Training Clone" legs again?  If so, someone really has to go over to china and smash that mold so they can't use those legs again to ruin more figures in the future...  :P

Ridiculous. Why are they so in love with that mold?!!? >:(

I'm not surprised if they had it dusted off to use for that multi-pack, but I agree it's a horrid choice and Hasbro needs to abandon those horrific legs.

For me, the Wedge is boring though anyway.  The Bothan's the prize of the set...  Those uniforms RS wore in the comic were hideous to begin with.

Agreed - almost like they were going for something along the lines of the Star Trek-ification of Star Wars - sorry, I know that's a horrible way to describe it. I always thought it was ridiculous for Rogue Squadron to even have "dress" uniforms. The Star Wars universe strikes me as the kind of place that really doesn't give a **** what a pilot wears when he's not protecting your ass.

We stopped by the "across town" Wal-Mart this weekend, and it was overflowing with the exclusive comic packs (while our closest store has none currently).  Anyways, I picked up the Ewok 3 pack and the Amanin pack, and hope to go back to get the pilots set eventually if possible.  They did seem to have plenty of all three, at $12.88 each.

I finally found Obi-Wan and the Jawa at TRU today. Obi-Wan is easily within the best five figures ever made, and I always love the Jawas, even when its gun accessory thingy looks a little weird.
