If its fan focused, I hope it'll be The Client.  If its meant to be mass market, it'll probably be some form for Storm/Deathtrooper.

I'd love to see The Client or The Doctor as the pack-in - or even Season 1 outfit Greef Karga would be nice.

Don't do that....don't give me hope.

This was a great surprise.  For me, the pack-in seems like it almost has to be season 1 Greef Karga.  And the eternal optimist in me hopes for a Bounty Hunter's Guild 3-pack to be released around the same time to help fill the place out.

Even better, The Client and The Doctor.

I think it値l be a remnant trooper or something.  No real precedent to think otherwise...  maybe like Merrick gives some hope I suppose.

I'd always take another Remnant trooper, but I'd obviously like to see something more substantial.

Yep. The Client. That's my hope!

I'd love to get a figure of the Client, too.  But isn't it bizarre that we're clamoring for a figure of Werner Herzog?!?!? 

Still, I really like how much he got into his role.  I've seen enough of his work where I thought he might have regarded himself as too much of a film purist to work on a Star Wars series.  So when he really embraced the filmmaking artistry of how the effects team brought the Child to set in such an interactive way, it really resonated with me.

Some details about this set came out during the Collector Media Q&A sessions yesterday.  It sounds like the pack-in figure is set to be an Imperial Death Trooper.  And the set is designed to depict the Nevarro cantina as seen in Chapter 7 and 8 from season 1 of The Mandalorian.  That revelation makes me wonder if this set will be focused more on the exterior of the Cantina?  Because that's where a lot of the fighting took place.

Deathtrooper... of course it is.

The pack-in's for playsets are going to be army builders (the only exception was Jabba's Palace but even those were repacks).  It makes sense, especially if you need multiple sets to complete it.
But yeah, it'd be nice to get something new.

I'm actually ok with this.  We've had a couple of releases of the Death Trooper already so no one is going to have to go nuts getting multiples to get a bunch of them.

Looking over the pictures, I really wish they'd have been able to include a "unbroken window" piece so you could use the Cantina pre/post Gideon attack.  Would make it easier to buy multiple sets if you could have one window shot-up/out and the other window undamaged.  Oh well. 

I ordered one set and may break down and buy a second if they see a price dip after release (like the Tantive and Bespin sets did).
