Anyway, it has been a good stretch of time now so re-releasing Greedo makes a degree of sense.

Oh yeah, I remember being baffled why it too so long to release a Vader. Then when they did, within a few months we had the SH Figuarts, Bandai Model, Revoltech, and (a little later) the Mafex. So we were flush with Vaders at one point lol.
