Thanks for the link and heads up Dale....wowza.  Reminds of how much I need to keep saving here in the next couple of months :).

Looks like someone snuck pics at UK Toy Fair :)

Holy mother of pearl does that look awesome.  I get more and more and more pumped with each week.  Only 8 weeks left and the little leak today has me itching to spend hundreds of dollars!

Ahhhhh, what a beautiful sight to behold.  I am in the minority but I actually like the packaging.  I would rather have something OTCish but it's good for me.

I don't mind the packaging, at least parts of it, either.  I too would rather have something more OTC/VOTC/vintage-ish, but after seeing it in person with the preview figures, I don't mind it too much.  Granted, I'm sure it is a pain in the rear for carded people...and i feel sorry for them...but as far as just a "package" to get it to the stores, it isn't so bad.  Something different at least, and it is definitely eye catching.  I do like the big character pictures used on the bubbles....plus, it makes it easier to spot what you're looking for :).

Oooh...

Are those 2-pack cinema scenes on the shelves there? Dooku Vs. Anakin and Sidious Vs. Mace?

I saw those too Jared, wish there was some better looks at them.  All in good time I suppose, but those could be quite cool.

The 2-packs definitely look intriguing.  They almost remind me of the way McFarlane presents their Sports Picks 2-packs.  Those and the Deluxe figures look interesting to me.  I'm surprised to not see any vehicles though.  Hmmm.

On the bottom of the action figure shelves, you can just barely make out the Gunship and Anakin's Starfighter (on the shelf under the 2-packs).  Not much else for vehicles initially I guess...

Is it April yet?   ;D  Love the little glimpses of the Vs. sets and I think I saw Padme in there somewhere.  Looks like she comes with some accessory or maybe a base.
