Uh, anyone else besides me not remember seeing an EPisode 5 Darth Vader with a Probe Droid like this?

I am not digging the packaging look of this line either.

I don't remember anything of this was wanted in the latest fan polls. :D

Not my cup of tea, guess the Star Wars Year 2013 is a no go for me... at least they bring on the Best Of Wave so i can get another ARC oh wait no shop in Germany has them yet....

This are pics of the handpainted hardcopies (prototypes). These gaps between the limbs and the torsos are common as many hardcopies are just held together with metal/wooden/plastic pegs. There was another batch of high res pics released yesterday (I think I saw them on Rebelscum) that are of finished production figures and the gaps are no longer present.

These Mission Packs are up for pre-order (11 bucks for all except $13 for the Vader Pack):

Star Wars Mission Series Star Destroyer Pack



Star Wars Mission Series Geonosis Pack



Star Wars Mission Series Utapau Pack



Star Wars Mission Series Coruscant Pack



I have heard that the Vader is the short-packed one among the case assortments of these and hence the reason for the slightly higher price.

Wow, talk about prices going up. The Vader is now at twenty bucks and the others at $13. If you want em you may want to get em before the prices go any higher.

Who in their right mind would want these?  I can understand why the first run of Power of the Force was well received....heck that was the first offering of Star Wars toys since the 80s.  But now they are selling crappy toys and expect us to like it?  The only thing I can think of is the buyers don't know they are only 5 points of articulation.  And by the way the prices went down.....

I will wait and see what these look like. I might get that Vader one for grins. I hope these are extinct soon.
