Steve Evans updated his website with some nifty TVC photo-checklists.  Looks like the Ghost pack-in figures will get the special HASxxx numbering, while Sabine/Chopper will get standard VC#s. 

VC332 Sabine Wren
VC333 Chopper (C1-10P)

It's dumb to be annoyed by this... but I am. Chopper & Sabine should not have been mainline numbered. They should have either matched the rest of the crew with Haslab numbering or should have been left unnumbered. It is silly to have the number inconsistent across the full Mural set.

$70?! Considering all of their other multipacks have gone to clearance, I'm just going to start with 1 and maybe even cancel it. Nice looking droids though.

I'll have to go dig out my Dark Empire comics but I believe there was supposed to be a cannon in that storage space.

The design in Ahsoka was modified, the original EU version had a third canon over the cockpit:

it will get repacked at least one more time with Kuill.

Yeah, that feels like a safe bet these days.  I am dumb so I'll likely buy a second Mando/Blurrg just in case they don't though.

I think those of us who want three total will be OK doing that. I think it is safe to say that they aren't planning on releasing the third Blurgg w/ Cara Dune any time soon...

Going to need at least three of these!

Was thinking the same thing, and was bummed that they're looking at including a Mando with them... I'd rather it be a little less expensive and not have him, but I get it.

Oh don't worry... it will get repacked at least one more time with Kuill.

It's about time we get this though. I'm excited to see this one revealed. I'll be down for up to three of these well (depending on the initial price).

Mine just arrived today. I like the two new astromechs. Huyang is definitely a downgrade from the upcoming TVC version. The shoulders and hips are just swivel joints with paint that made them look ball-jointed. His backpack is permanently attached and is not articulated. Chopper is fine.

Wish I would have waited for a sale on this one.

It is odd, I've now seen several people praising these (& 5-POA in general) on Reddit, and the posts were getting a decent amount of engagement. Not that, that is a very scientific barometer of people's interest in these in general but I did think it was interesting. I'm curious how many people (kids vs adults) actually LIKE these and what value they have that Retro or TVC does not. As an adult collector, there is nothing here that remotely interests me that I can't already get in TVC, Retro, or older lines. Even as a little kid I feel like I would have greatly preferred TVC, any would have been fine with the Retro figures over the Epic Hero series.

If Epic Hero was a return to ForceLink style 5-POA w/ good sculpts and paint I could see a place for it, but as is, I just can't get on board with this line and it will be interesting to see how long it lasts...

Nothing in the pipeline?!? Clearly you guys forgot about the Finn repack! ...    

This is definitely the hardest era for me. I don't really care for the films that much, nor do I really want many more figures from this era in my collection... But I'd be down for random aliens / droids though that could fit into the background of other displays or could be used for repaints/retools for aliens from any of the D+ series:
