Wow. That completed council looks very cool! Sure it's not quite the right configuration since it's missing the entry area and the middle section doesn't quite fit, but all in all it's a pretty good setup. I still can't understand why Hasbro couldn't just make a playset of this entire Council with all 12 chairs, the floor and backdrop. $30 or $40 would seem very doable to me. Of course, they'd have to offer up the various Jedi figures on standard cards, with knee articulation and soft goods cloaks. But that shouldn't be so hard.
If Hasbro doesn't get around to putting out more of these SS sets, or a Council playset down the line, I'm going to have to go after some more loose sets and do something similar to what's pictured above. I'd prefer a slightly better backdrop for the windows though, with more of the Coruscant buildings and traffic, and not right at sundown/up when the sky looks like it's on fire. Otherwise, some good looking stuff there!
