Just out of curiosity who is ghanima?  Adam May credits him for the photo at GH and ghanima is posting all kinds of details how this is a Galactic Heroes playset that has been floating around since '99 on Rebelscum.  To clarify he said it started out as a 3 and 3/4" playset but will be used for GH ad retail for $150-$200.  Is it a different user name for the two that gave you the photo Jesse or is it someone trying to exploit an opporutunity?

Has anybody been able to blow up the image enough to tell what line of toys that box is from?  Adam May says it's a Galactic Heroes box but I don't see that when I blow up the photo.

As Nicklab said Kyle Katarn comes with the Yuuzhan Vong in a comic pack.  They are based off their appearance in the Star Wars Tales story Equals and Opposites.

Hasbro had said we're getting a Katarn in a comic pack with the Vong soldier, but the problem is, I don't recall Katarn wearing his video game gear (ala this figure) in the comic book (as I noted earlier).  The Comic in SW Tales I thought had Katarn as a Jedi Knight in robes and things...  Wasn't he protecting refugees from the Vong in that storyline?
Or are there multiple NJO-era Katarn storylines that have him sporting his Infiltrator/video game duds?

Either way I'm quite happy to get a new Katarn figure that pretty accurately represents his video game look.  He's even young (no grey) looking which really supports his video game characters (the first 2 anyway) over the NJO look.  Pretty cool...  The Trooper I think is going to be the new Spacetrooper Hasbro had mentioned somewhere along the line.  Bummer as the Dark Trooper would be much cooler IMO, but whatever.  The Purge Trooper was hinted at on other boards but I think this is another Thrawn Trilogy comic pack figure on the way.  I wonder who it'll come with though?

No this is the outfit he wore from the comic.  Technically this isn't his DFII Jedi Knight outfit, it's close but not quite right for that appearance.

You can see images of Kyle from the comic here: http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Image:Katarnnjo.JPG

This image shows the outfit that this figure has: http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Image:Kyle.jpg

This is the best image of how Kyle looked in DF Jedi Knight: http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Image:Dfh3.jpg

and finally how he looked in Jedi Outcast: http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Image:MediumStyle.JPG


As far as I know I don't think Kyle Katarn has ever worn traditional Jedi robes in any of his appearances.  I know his description in the LotF series matched how he looked in  Jedi Outcast.

Are you absolutely sure this is the only Cade being released?
