Why would you need Vader's meditation chamber? That was on his Star Destroyer.
In the scenes cut from the beginning of Return of the Jedi, the first place Vader goes upon his arrival at Death Star II is his meditation chamber.
From Variety:
Based on the recent LFL announcements at Celebration: one is the Rey movie, one is the Filoni Mando-verse movie, and then James Mangold's "Dawn of the Jedi" era movie. Seems like a lot of new Star Wars movies packed into a 20 month period. Based on how they move things around these days though, I'm sure it will all change again before the first one of these three is actually released...
Style wise? The colors are pretty bold. My own preference would have been to use those colors for each droid, but in more of the "used universe" style that we're so accustomed to. But I think the designers wanted to go bold for Pride. I can't fault them for that at all.
Agreed. I'm not sure I can mix these in with my Jawa droid lot of droids as they don't aesthetically fit. Not sure exactly where I'll put these yet.
I think the set really stands on its own as a statement release. And that's great. I consider myself an ally, and I've been thinking about giving the box set as a gift to someone in my life that recently came out. They're into Star Wars and I think this might really be the right gift to give.
Another biggie got here last night... it's clean and the color is great. The top fin is slightly crooked but I can live with it. The stickers seem to have mold on them, so while it's not what I was hoping for, I've ordered replacements.
Vehicle-wise, my list is down to an Ewok Battle Wagon, Imperial Cruiser, and Imperial Troop Transporter, but there's a cruiser in the mail. I also need to finish up the rarer of the mini-rigs; ATL Interceptor, Side Gunner, One-Manned Sand Skimmer, Sniper, and Security Scout.
