Indeed, a nice looking wave thus far...
Nice scoop there Scott, way to go!
Who wouldn't say Lando's the BEST looking of the group. Holy cow! Working holster, removable helmet, force pike... he's sharp.
The 2 new aliens of the group do Indeed reuse the body mold which was expected/feared by many... If that's the case for the actual props I'm cool with it. I like their blaster rifle too (though it'd have been nice if one of them came with a unique gun, but I digress).
They appear to be pretty well articulated too, for a couple background furballs.
Jabba's Jabba... We've been down the road of what could have made this guy better and what we SHOULD have probably gotten in a $20-ish set (The good news, ROTJ Vintage Jabba's dais isn't expensive).
Rappertunie is... Well, he's like WA-7. He's set dressing, even as an action figure... Very uninteresting to me, and not useful for much more than sitting next to the other Jabba's band figures we have already, haha.
Bubo ROCKS, for being basically an accessory...
The B'Omar's unfortunately a rehash, as I too was hoping for a new sculpt with maybe just the 4-legged version of the B'Omar Monk... It's not something I really wanted a 2nd of, but I do want that Bubo cuz he rocks. The other "thing" in that set is funny that it's even being made... It's also funny that he licked 3-PO's head. I'll probably have to incorporate him into that mottif somehow. It's his claim to fame afterall.
The Holographic Luke looks to be the "weakest" of the group, but for some reason it's still welcome to me. It's something I know I wanted for no good reason. What I'm curious about is, why the sabre?
Not that I mind getting an extra one of those awesomely sculpted Luke Jedi sabres (That's a NICE accessory), but he's a hologram!
A "projection" accessory that attached somehow to R2's dome and connected to Luke would've been better IMO. A sort of "force effect" thing. He looks to be simply the ROTJ Luke sculpt reused, like Holo Sidious... That's fine though.
That Lando still holds the title for best of the bunch, with the 2 aliens (Whiphid and Elom) in a close 2nd for that title... Lando is just a truly vast improvement, and I didn't even want a resculpt of him till now. They really REALLY improved Lando...
Now I want even more resculpts of POTF2 figures... If they are all this great, how could you not want to see more resculpts? That puts the POTF2 Lando Skiff to shame and I used to think it was a half-decent figure.
