There is also a big dark shadow out front of the cantina but behind the new set, it may just be a continuation of the wall shadow but it looks more to me like it could be a shadow from the 9000 Z001 landspeeder.

In the panel they said it was a "great new body to build on" (meaning more lady officers are coming).  Looks like at least the torso is new, not sure if they re-used the arms or legs from something else.

The legs & arms look to be the same ones from the Cal Kestis / Piett body. I think it is just a new torso. It looks good either way though. I've been wanting a Deedra for 2 years now. Count me in for a couple.

Very solid wave overall, not the theme, but the overall quality of the figures is good.

Luke looks pretty good, but I am not necessarily completely sold on the Mark Hamill likeness still. I wish it was a little more definitive like this year's Leia this year was. But it is pretty close and the body looks great. The cardback is of course fantastic.

Anakin looks real solid. It will be interesting to see what parts are reused on there. I didn't immediately pick them up, but I was watching while working.

I just noticed that the Ahsoka show clone officers don't have the blue dots on the torso armor. At first, I though it was a miss on Hasbro's part and then I looked closer at the source material and it seems to be something they left off in the show. Interesting. That does look like a new Phase I non-removable helmet to me.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!

(Sorry, I had to.)

A true cinematic legend. He will be greatly missed.

I don't want it. You keep it.

Of course, I just overpaid (slightly) for the 2019 version a few months ago...

Thanks everyone, sincerely. It was days after my 50th birthday, such a wake up call for what the rest of my life means to me.

I did not intend to derail the thread

PLEASE! 

I think it's a sign of the quality of a community when we can set aside our hobby and have a conversation about what's important - THE PEOPLE IN OUR COMMUNITY!  I know that you and I discussed this in another setting, but I'm still very glad that you can see that people care, and are glad that you got treatment and are doing better.  I know that I am.  And it's a reminder to us all that we're not the little kids who saw the OT in the theaters anymore.  We have fuller lives, families, responsibilities, etc, and that we have to be more conscious of taking care of ourselves.

Wholeheartedly agree. Don't feel bad for 'derailing' anything. We are just talking about movies, tv, & toys here normally, none of which are particularly important in the grand scheme of life.

******* A dude??  You doing ok?

Yes, thanks, much better these days. It wasn't an event as much as a slow build up. The doctor who fixed me up said it looked like it had been going on for a week or more, and I knew I felt bad but I just kept pushing through, until the goddamned Acolyte.

 No I am just kidding, the show didn't do it. It wasn't until I spent the next day out with my sons that I really noticed I was slowing down and out of energy...then I took myself to the ER to get checked out. We're all getting older, here -- keep an eye on yourself!

Woah man. That's really scary. Glad to hear that you thought to go get yourself checked out after noticing something was off and that everything was okay, considering. Wishing you the best in your recovery.
