Here's the video so you can get a feel for the light and sound effects.

This set probably is a solid idea better suited to a higher-dollar manufacturer-- Sideshow, Gentle Giant. I just don't see it being a successful, high-number (as Hasbro doesn't tend to do very limited items) toy thing... but this would probably be about as perfect an ideal adult collectible piece as you could imagine
A mere cost savings tactic. We'll get OWK, Anakin and Rex in Cold Weather Gear on individual cards.
Yeah - except that those Obi-Wan and Anakin figures won't fit in the speeder!
Was it Ackbar? Ithought it was the Emperor.
There was Ackbar, The Emperor, Nien Nunb and Anakin Skywalker for ROTJ.
Yeah, I think there's some confusion on Hasbro's side as well. The original plan was for both the clean shaven HRS and the 2nd Ugnaught to be in the AOTC wave. Obviously both got bumped. The 2nd Ugnaught seems to be for sure showing up in a later wave, it shouldn't be hard for the other HRS to show up either. Panic over the 2nd HRS guy should be refrained, Hasbro's been proven too on top of it in recent years to stiff us on a particular figure. Look at the Stormtrooper commander.
I think an East Coast city would be nice. Boston has a nice, big, fairly new convention center (hint, hint).
Most of the talk on the 2009 numbering & 2009 repacks over there was taken from this post at JTA, though unfortunately they didn't feel like giving much credit to JTA for the list.
Thanks for the breakdown Scott (and for coordinating it, of course).
I think the results reflect JD's older crowd (I was going to say more mature, what was I thinking?) that has a greater appreciation for our childhood movies and the figures related to them. There's certainly a lot of figures on that list that I would buy!
Thanks for delivering the results, Dan, you'll have to let us all know what kind of feedback Derryl gives you at SDCC.
I'm going to go ahead and guess that Hasbro knows what happened with Yarna and that they're going to reduce the quantities of Willrow accordingly.
I would be all over this. I understand lights but what sounds would it be? Crackling fire?
I think he is just the one stinker in the wave. Maybe some Jawa attack version, on the VOTC mold with a dirty paintjob.
