being that I only recently GOT the origonal gunship and other than paint, this is nothing new, I'll pass. But the ship is STILL so cool anyways!

I sorta understand the reason tomake new cards, for change, for difrenciating betweeen the lines. But I wish they could stick with one design like the current saga line and leave it.  but either way I'm gonna get stuff no matter what the package looks like. Ipoen my stuff but save the packages (filling my attic with fire hazards )

I think these two scene pieces look pretty cool. I'm glad the jedi council is getting rounded out, and with the council room at that! Mace looks like the best one since TPM and I hope they fix Oppo's snake tail but it is still very cool!
The geonosian war room is also pretty cool, finally a Poggle the LEsser! SanHill is okay and we get *another* dooku! I do like the war room holomap, that is pretty cool!

yeah ! some cool new stuff!

I agree, where is Poggle the Lessor, Clieg, Owen and beru lars? While I'm glad they make leser known charactes like San Hill and Wat Tambor, how about characters that are actualy IMPORTANT to the movies and not just cool but needles characters?

I didn't do the midnight madness either but both times in 99 and 2002, I went out durning my lunch hour and got stuff. In 99, I went to a TRU, got about 5 figs there then went to a walmart and kmart on the way home and found 3 more, especially the elusive darth maul! Then I collected a couple at a time over the summer and end of the year.
I actually rememebr this time last year when the sneak peaks came out. I found them at a Target and picked up the CLone Trooper and Jango and later traded for Zam, they are still in their plastic cells to this day. Then in April, I headed to a walmart, picked up about a dozen figs and a dooku lightsaber for a little more than a C-note! Then as usual, I get things here or there overtime. Even being able to get the slave1 and republic gunship now on sale.

Well I stocked it full of jedi and clones and man it's one cool ship!
It's very easy to put together, snap in the cockpit canopy, wings, missle turrets and drop platform. Apply a few stickers and Voila! It's very sturdy and has good weight to it, in other words - it's not flimsy! The front end missles or whatever they are and the top missles don't shoot out very far   but the thing still rocks!
I was able to put the ball cannon from the pilot trooper in it's place and seated the pilot, then put in the speeder bike. Next I loaded jedi into it: Luminara, Kit fisto, plo koon on one side with mace in the doorway wedged in, then on the left side, the red clone at the ball cannon, Ki-adi, sasee tiin and clone speeder guy and stuffed eath koth the doorway. This is probably the coolest and biggest ship I have, since my origianl millennium falcon!
