Sure most of them are dated, but some people make the old Episode 1 figures to be worse than they are, IMHO. There's few that are embarassing/awful as some of the early POTF2 releases or some of the later AOTC Saga era stuff. 

TPM was the only Prequel that felt like it got a real, as in old school Kenner era, toy line of its own. AOTC was a mess that didn't get its own packaging. ROTS was better, but was planned to end at the end of 2005, parts of its toy series felt rushed/half hearted.

No purchases, but I did spot the 3 new Target 3-packs out on the pegs today. The Bossk/IG-88 set looked kinda cool, but overall meh. Do not recall having seen these before...

I saw them, too. I noticed Chewbacca's bandolier has the Hoth snowflake weathering on it.  C-3PO has some oily weathering on his chest circles that I don't remember seeing before.

I like that the Snowtrooper has the IG-88 rifle (there's two in the pack), the carded release should've come with that, too.

Needa looks unchanged.

C-3PO is making some sort of gesture on the box photo.

It would be cool if Sidious had his Senator robes underneath his sith robes...head sculpt looks like it is Senator Palpatine under there

Wait, are you saying they are the same character?

SPOILER ALERT.

What is the black thing next to him?

Mon Cal pilot looks to be all new tooling?

One thing I recall, the one EU figure per wave in 2012 thing seems to have been....delayed?

And no one is ready to admit what they secretly wanted to see at SDCC: what's coming in 2012 for Jedi Force.   

I can say for sure is that Ben Quadrinaros finally getting made is proof that 2012 is the end of the world.

I think the Evazan wave getting bumped and the exclusive Wal-Mart wave are irritating consider they gave us a filler wave earlier this year. 

I'm a bit surprised that more updated Clones using the new body aren't coming that soon. All you who sold off your 501sters...enjoy the wait. 
 
Wal-Mart CLONE WARS DVD 2-packs containing one new figure each remind us that China-based ebay sellers are a gooood thing.

Hasbro's weirdness gives us Mando gunships with virtually no Mandalorians in stores, save the stray deluxe set and nigh-impossible to find battle pack. Luke's tauntaun and no Luke. Clone Wars Chewbacca with no one to interact with from his episode besides Ahsoka.  A spider assassin droid with its intended target non-existent in figure form. Pod racers with no pods (okay, that's not so surprising). A battle pack to stop a Zillo Beast that only exists as a backdrop. Remake of a deleted scene character but no JAXXON. 

Luke's Tauntaun coming and no Hoth Luke = FAIL, Hasbro dropped the ball again.

Makes the Search For Luke Skywalker set a hopeless quest, huh?
