Maybe my memory is failing me, but I don't recall Rose wearing a poncho...

Yeah, she puts the poncho on over her first order gear once she rejoins the resistance - like Nick said, she's wearing it in the ski speeder -




Is this exclusive or does "home entertainment" just mean it's for the blu-ray release?

I think "home entertainment" is easier than saying "Digital Download, On-Demand Rental, DVD, Bluray Release Day".  It should hit (and be blown out at clearance prices) everywhere just like the TFA Maz Castle and Rogue One Jedha 4-packs. :P

It's not amazing but at least there's a reason to keep all four figures

Rose doesn't even come with the stun gun, of which the 5POA figure has a better paintjob than the 3.75 inch Black Series. I'd been holding off on that buy, and if it came with this set it would be an instant purchase. Now I'll just keep the cash and get the discounted 5POA Rose.

At first I assumed the Rose was just a repack of the First Order Disguise Rose with poncho (with her boots and blue legs), but the higher res pics show she has a white clothing arm so she must have a slightly different torso under there too.  I guess she took off the First Order jacket and then put the poncho on. ;)

I wouldn't mind seeing that Gunner in the 6" line, or the driver for that matter.

From the looks of it I'd guess  she stole Han Solo's old clothes.

Not a bad set. I'll get one if goes under $10. Maybe. LOL.

So this is interesting.

I'd rather have Luke as a TVC/SA figure, too, but his absence here is odd. Rey I knew was a lock. The Snowtrooper is clearly meant to be the AT-M6 Driver, but that design per the LEGO version utilizes the TIE Pilot outfit rather than the Snowtrooper, so this is odd. The FO Gunner is very welcome. Rose wears the poncho in the Ski Speeder. There's a good look at her in the Visual Dictionary. I wanted this figure, so that's cool, but I would have preferred Luke, a Resistance Trooper or the Crait Leia.

All of them are way to under-articulated for me.
This is the way.

I think it might be from when she was piloting the Ski Speeder.

This is correct.  I caught it when I saw the movie last night.

 I never noticed her in the poncho. I wanted Leia with her gun and a Crait Resistance in this pack. Oh well. At least there are 3 new figures. I guess Force Projection Luke will be coming single-packed in a year from now?

It's going to be at wider retail, and should coincide roughly with the BluRay release.

I didn't know this. That's great. Thanks for letting us know.

My order for this set arrived from EE yesterday. Not a bad set, not a great one. Better than the TFA one, but nowhere near as good as the RO one.

The Rose is the best figure in the set - slightly different legs from the 2-pack set, poncho is made of really flexible soft plastic so it won't interfere with putting her in the cockpit of the ski speeder, she has wrist articulation and sculpted on her torso is the necklace she wore in the movie.

The First Order figures are decent enough, and it's always welcome to get more figures to add to the First Order ranks, so they get a pass.

The Rey is included here because that's the pattern for these 4-packs, but I would have much rather seen them include a Resistance Ground Trooper than this Rey sculpt again.

Saw these on a peg at Target today, I think $24.95. I'll hold off until they have a promo. (Maybe during the video release?)

I didn't notice in the online images how much better Rose' face is sculpted over the goofy looking one packed with BB-8.

I picked mine up. I know the Exclusive Emperor 3 pack is an exclusive, but I still wonder how one justifies offering a 3-pack and 4-pack for the same price?
