These actually are something I've never seen in a store, but that doesn't surprise me really... From what I heard only one WM or maybe two in the area, got this set at all. Pmundheim was kind enough to hook me up with the set I got.
I'm not wild about the set either... I agree. For $30, the price you're paying is for something I'd rather have the actual vintage piece for (no matter the price) than a copy. It's not the same, and $30 then just strikes me as overpriced...
To me, that's making the argument that "Well $30 is better than what you'd pay for an original" is as ass backwards an excuse as "Well the EE Clones are cheaper than buying the CW single Clones on Ebay!" excuse was for the 4-packs...
Yeah, CW SA Clones are not cheap on Ebay, but how does that have any effect on the pricing of newly packaged/distributed figures, ya know? But I digress.
The figures are kinda blah... I'm happy to get the Leia, and to me the Chewbacca is the highlight of the set overall (He's ANH Chewie and ESB Chewie... And with the VOTC Chewie I'm pretty well set). Luke looks like **** to me, I'm sorry... To me, that was a gimmick best left dead... Anakin Outland didn't do well with it, and while it's a vintage throwback, it's nothing I find interesting to own on a modern figure (again, if I want authentic vintage, I'll buy vintage). R2... Not something I needed another one of unless it had the tools... Even then I'm not one to want another R2 for a bit.
I'm not mad about the set... It just wasn't good. To me, the SA Clone from Target was better... It's overpriced too, so it's not perfect, but at least it's a SA Clone. Hell, he even has both rifles! That's better than the basic SA Clone's have been able to pull off.
