I wouldn't be surprised if they get to the sandcrawler one day, something tells me they'll be selling star wars product for a long time to come. I would definitely be up for one, and the bigger the better. I don't see why they couldn't work some of the old droid factory features into the interior and combine the two for more play value.

I can't see myself picking up anything but the Luke. I like the belt with the grappling hook and that comlink might be removable. If he comes with a newly scaled E-11 I'd be happy.

There's not much I can say about the others that hasn't been mentioned. Between the Jedi and Clones wave, my wallet will probably enjoy the rest.

I noticed in the cockpit, they sculpted the part on the console where Vader's hologram appears. I wonder if at some point, a figure might have a mini Vader holo packed in. With the blue light effect it could look pretty good.

Thanks for the in depth review Jesse. I originally just wanted the Rebel set, but you've made me want to pick up both.

Pictures of the rest of this wave are up at Sandtroopers. I like the robe color on the Mace, it's much more AOTC than the prototype on display at Celebration, which had more of a Sith look. I think this is the best version of the character to date. The sabre looks a bit blue, but I have plenty of substitutes.

Thanks for that Jesse, I'll check out some  graffitti remover.

It was really strange getting back from work yesterday and seeing those battled droids still upright without the use of stands.

I picked up a couple of battle droid two packs over the weekend.  With two figures, a pack of weapons and the game stuff (if you're into that) this seems very good value. It's really refreshing to have some droids that don't fall over all the time and can pull a variety of poses. The plastic seems much sturdier than previous releases and this kind of joint on the hip really helps.

If they can make that left hand twist for a two handed blaster grip it would be even better.

Although I wish they'd put two grunts to a pack, I'm still going to be loading up on these guys.

I'm really pleased that they finally seem to have the ankles joints matching the boots in this wave. When they get it wrong it really bugs me for some reason. . A definite upgrade for Obi Wan in this department.
