Funny, I ran into a slightly off-his-rocker older man in the aisle at TRU a few weeks back, absolutely pissed that he couldn't find a Luke figure. There seems to be a lot of people out there thinking that the OT core characters return in ROTS.
While I totally get that they want to stay ROTS focused this year, and their lineup makes sense to me, I’m starting to think Hasbro should have continued to ship a revamped, smaller OTC line simultaneously. Put it on the same shaped cards, but retain the OTC look, with a black and silver Vader. Keep it down to a small assortment of core characters, and just keep those people happy. It would have been a nice side-line that didn’t get in the way of the ROTS onslaught, I think.
