I was surprised Hasbro didn't include him in the Ahsoka retro wave!
I've noticed over the years that Hasbro doesn't always make the best choices.
I think that is why all these customs exist.
If we look strictly at the retro collection, I can't complain about the figures that are direct copies. I understand what they are doing there. Once they go into the unproduced figures, that is where they get hit and miss. The prototype ones are a big example. The Vader was fine as a one off because it had an actual past in the Kenner process. Once they started doing other ones, it just go annoying. I think they have a lot of misses in the waves of figures as well. Acolyte wave really comes to mind. They should have at least had "the Stranger" figure. Even the board game pack-ins weren't the best. Tarkin was definitely a smart choice as an overlooked 70's figure. The "Hoth Pilot" Luke was terrible, as was the Trivial Pursuit "dirty" remnant Stormtrooper. Better choices could have been made for those two.
It does seem like they are getting back on track with the newest wave. While Yavin Luke isn't the most exciting, I can see why he was done. The rest are what they should have done from the beginning, hence why customizers have beat them to it. Han ST, Sandtrooper, and Rebeltrooper are what people have wanted, but have been done on the secondary market. Dr. Evazan is a great addition, but I'm almost certain someone has done him in the custom realm. Understandable why Walrus Man is in the wave as well. Perhaps he could have been updated with a normal version to be in a future wave. That leaves 7 of the original 20 to be done: R5-D4, Gonk, Death Star Droid, Hammerhead, Snaggletooth, X-wing Luke, and Greedo.
