Reports are coming in that this wave is already showing up at retail in the US, before the AOTC wave!

I want that Death Star escape Luke and Stormtrooper so badly... I did not realize that is the orginal stormtrooper, Gree is still a definite as well; as for the Han Solo I am not impressed, to me nothing is like this Han:

Agreed. I still consider that Han to be the definitive ANH figure. I am still holding out hope that Hasbro will make something of similar quality for Farmboy Luke. I have not been overly impressed with their attempts so far. |

IMO, I feel that farmboy Luke from the VOTC collection is awesome, from the sand weathering on his shoes/ wraps to the fabric used for his shirt; a better head sculpt possibly but I feel that neck down this Luke is phenomenal:

I just don't like the softgoods. I would have preferred to have seen this Luke with a sculpted tunic. I really have no need to remove his clothing, know what I mean?
To date, I have been forced to hold on to my TSC Farmboy Luke. I sure wish Hasbro would give me an adequate replacement.

Not too sure how I feel yet on softgoods. I am a fairly new (and loose) collector. Overall I think the figures look good with one piece of cloth like a cape but I think that Obi-Wan and Anakin's robes in the ROTS line are a bit too much and hard to manipulate, especially the hoods.
I am VERY excited for this wave and I hope it starts to pop up soon!! Very eager to amp up my ANH collection! |
