Dig the Probe Droid big time. Luke and Yoda - both worthy upgrades for sure. |

Amazing how much better Luke and Yoda are. And that original Bespin Luke was a huge improvement over ANH Luke. They've really brought this line far along. Really good quality figures for the price point.

Yeah that new head does wonders. Grabbing a lot of doubles to open from these ESB40 waves.

Nope, generic guy and generic guy with a beard.
They are using the SHF style face swap tech which is cool, and extra face goes in the backpack. |

So glad to see faceprinted ESB Lando in-hand finally! Can't wait to get him, Pilot Luke, and the Hoth Rebel Trooper.

Seeing that Hoth trooper with mask, all I can think is "He's ready to fight the Empire and COVID-19."

So I just found out there is a Limited Release Die cast version of the Probe Droid. It was supposedly a Japanese Exclusive but it is up on Disney's online store. Only 1 per customer. It even seems to have a different paint job and different antennae. Definitely grabbed one. Here's the link if anyone wants.

Awesome pics as always. I just opened mine from my pile of loot. Damn......this thing is way bigger than I expected. Honestly.....I don’t know what I expected. But the space I had for it needs to be doubled.

I saw it at Toy Fair in person so I knew what I was getting in to. Still have no place to put it. :/

I was thinking of drilling a screw into it and hanging on the wall flat. For now it's back in the box and in a tub.

Congrats, Tony!
You got one that has the corrected "ZZ" graphic on both sides. A lot of the speeders got out that had the starboard side "ZZ" reversed. |

The seat and seatbelts being so clean really sticks out to me. Especially the seatbelts since it pops being the only clean piece that lacks details that you see when you have the pilots in place.
There's no way those seats would have stayed that clean when the rest of the craft has clearly been through hell. Hasbro should have done a simple wash to match the worn look of the rest of the piece. |

I saw talk of the reversed ones but then saw mine correct (had to look it up) and figured it was fixed prior to release. Luck of the draw I guess.

I loved it but the thing is huge. Looking at it in pictures it looks smaller again like I initially thought when buying it. It’s an illusion!!! Great shots! Makes me want to play with it.
