Rancor keeper is going to be the second coming of the POTF2 days of peg warmers. He may beat Yarna. Do not get me wrong He looks great, I am buying him as I ditched my old one a few months ago when Hasbro Confirmed him. But he should have been packed with the Rancor. I like the Luke, you can tell he is an assembled paint master so I am sure he will tighter in production.

This is probably the best wave of figures in a long time. I'll gladly pick up one of each. Prune Face and the Skiff Guards have me super excited!

Yeah, this wave looks pretty sweet overall.  I'm looking forward to some better looks at the Luke, but hopefully it ends up being the one we've all been waiting for.  Although it might be a pegwarmer once again, that Rancor Keeper does look spiffy.  It really is amazing what improvements can be made compared to the POTF2 versions these days.  It makes me look forward to seeing the Gam. Guard on the way in 2010.  Anyways, back to this wave, it looks really great.  Actually, everything we have seen looks nice, should be a fun (and expensive) rest of 2009.

If you look to the left, at the Jedi Luke figure, there's a little black square on his stand...I think we can open or close his flap!

The Nikto Gunner is quite awesome I think.

I concur, he's quite cool looking and I love that the cannon is attachable (to a yet non-existent Sail Barge)

It should attach to the skiff's railing in the meantime.  :P

I'd take even a chunk of the barge just to attach it to, as like an elaborate stand.

I love the Green dude, I love the Nikto...  I love the Leia (articulated, yay!), I love the Sullustant Pilot...

I really, truly, dig the Dresellian Commando though.  Where's Dressel_Rebel at?  He's gotta love that as much as I do.  I've wanted him updated for eons.  :)  He's a real surprise.  I'm wondering how long Orrimarko's head variant/redeco on this body is though.  We're bound to get that too I think.

Oh, and Malikili is a very worthy update...  I'm sort of surprised, but this guy's got repegwarmer all over him I'm afraid.  I'll buy him happily to go with the new Rancor though.  Nice update, though I wasn't clamoring for him at all.

Present.

And I love me some of that dresselian, of course.  Definitely going to go ape on that one.  I haven't seen a really clear picture yet, but his cloak looks soft-goods-ish to me.  Can't really tell for sure.  I also want to see a closeup of his slug-firing weapon, Dresselians don't use lasers except for the ones they pick up from the stormies they bump off.

Anyone think that "Nien" Numb might have removable gear and a vest thrown in?

I don't know. The flight vest looks molded on to me.

I think he's just a repaint of the Evolutions figure.

Awesome wave! I'm in for 1 of each and an extra Leia for the variant legs.

Kudos Hasbro!

Did he even fly a B-wing in the movies?
