From JTA Facebook:

First Order Trooper, Rey, Vader (I'm guessing these are SNOW


Poe, (?), TIE Pilot (I'm guessing these are SPACE)


And here's Bespin Luke too:

So...
green insert = jungle/forest
orange insert = desert
blue insert = snow
dark blue/purple = space

You really couldn't find 2 new figures to put in this assortment other than Luke and Vader?

Oh wait...has time travel been ruled out of Star Wars...Humpback whales, 1980s San Francisco etc

At least it's only 2/12 and not like 6/12 or something. #glasshalffull

Got it, thanks. I think some of the armored stuff was just posted over at JTA...very gimmicky.

The stuff they've shown so far looks pretty cool, I'm hoping we get a good look at some of the vehicles next.

Well these are some nicely sculpted figures. Still on the fence about picking any up (might wait for eventual SA figures) but they do look great.

So we get a Bespin Luke and a Vader. Is there suppose to be a flashback to Luke loosing his hand/lightsaber and how Poe gets a hold of it?

I won't go that far but sculpt and paint looked good on a few and I saw lots of custom potential.  My goal will be getting things on sale and enjoying this for what it is.  I think TBS is hanging on but "new" won't be in it for some months.  Just a funny feeling I have.  And I suspect TFA won't be a part of it for longer. :x

Agree 100%.  I am way more excited for Force Friday now compared to the past few weeks.  Easy to be apathetic and not care when you have no idea what things will be there or won't, what things will look like, etc. Now that I've seen them, I like them. :)

My biggest gripe about the 5POA has been with the figures that are 15th or 16th resculpts.  Repack Bespin Luke and Vader here fall into that category.  I'll most likely buy them to get the "build-a" part... but I won't be too happy about it. I'll just dump Vader and Luke on one of my kids, I guess.

I'm fine with NEW 5POA figures though - I picked up the Rebels stuff, the CW Jedi Temple Guard, etc.  Like I said earlier in the thread - would I prefer a 3.75" SA Kylo Ren to a 5POA Kylo?  Sure... but I'll still buy this one.  Maybe I'm a sucker for doing that, but it works for me.  When they eventually get to a 3.75" SA Kylo Ren, I'll buy that too.  He'll look great in a dueling pose, while this one will still look great standing in front of a row of FO Stormtroopers.

Hmmm I can't say I'm very excited really but I'm also not not excited, I guess?  I liked some of them and I'm curious to see all the other stuff at this point as I have to say some of the 5 POA surprised me.

I'm still not doing midnight madness and stuff.  I'm curious what vehicles will look like, TBS, exclusives...  I'm pumped to make a Phasma poseable. :)

I wish I knew wtf the build a things are.  Are they in the movie?  Hmmm

I'm left I think with more questions after today than I had when I didn't care?  Maybe that's it.

The idea of making Captain Plasma poseable is a good idea and might get me back into customizing again. I can totally see dremeling out the armor and putting it on a micro-women figure just like did with Scorch. I need something better than latex balloons for the body glove though.
