I will pick up that Vader probably though probably more for the blaster hand than whatever that other getting blasted hand looks like. I think Hasbro could have done a bit better job with that.

Why did they change the good LC Wedge/Brannon body back to the short Luke Body? Iam getting mad! On the first pictures he had the good, high Body and now even the tall Biggs is going to be a short Kid...
And whats with the shoulders of the Scout again? Black stripes on them? And Luke looks like he has to short legs. Oh come on... makes me real sad to see how clumsy they are working...

... nah i get another Portman. Go Portman!

The only changes on the Luke from its TAC incarnation is a new head sculpt, hands, and holster.  They clearly are reusing old tooling here as well.

The Biggs doesn't appear to be the short Luke body, but that left leg pocket does seem a bit 'poofy', like the X-Wing Luke from 2008.

I'll pick up a Biggs, a couple of Lukes (for customs), and a Padme, but the rest of this wave stinks.  Too many clones and troopers in one wave: space them out Hasblo!    bbfet

Light side, dark side...meh.  Just give me a lightsaber and a blaster and I'll take care of it!

Aren't those typically shipped like in the last wave of a series (excl TVC)?  I'm still burned about the last couple of EU waves.   I got only 4 of the Legacy EU wave and I'd love Star Killer.

Still looking for a Shae Vizla and Starkiller myself.

Well i was lucky with Starkiller and Vizla got SK in exchange for a ERG and 1 MOC Vizla for 12 bucks at a store and a lose one for 12 from the German Forum.
I dunno what hasbro has done so that i have never seen a Nikto, Han Bespin, ARC Trooper or tarkin in the Shops but was flooded with RTs/ERGs/Bastilas, while the guys in southern Germany were able to get them self a couple of ARCs, Vizlas, Starkillers and so on but they dont get ERG/RTs. I mean Germany is not THAT big, and not even here we get the same figures in all areas.

Back to the Biggs: i don't know what looks wrong, well the shoes are inverted to the LC John Body but over all he looks shorter, more like the TVC Wedge.
Have you seen new Pictures of Wave 2? I wonder if Hasbro has noticed that they have a better A-Wing Pilot Body than the LC one...

A EU Wave would have been great, still waiting for some Video Game Figures like Jan Ors, Jerec, Carth, Sariss, little Trandoshans and mostly: Neo Crusaders and Sith Warriors.

I don't care too much for the Biggs either (or much outside of the Padme), but I don't think that's a short body like Luke/Wedge.

I could see you building a mean Bespin Dio with that Vader figure.

That's about the ONLY reason I'd buy ANY of these figs.  Maybe Padme for customs but otherwise, it's just the same old thing.  Kind of sad

You would think they would release an atat driver and commander again to man up the endor atat.

One would think so wouldn't they. Still haven't found my walker yet.  :'(
