How utterly wonderful and moving it is to see Hamill as Luke Skywalker again. Bring a tear to your eye.
Re: Luke's Episode VII Costume Leaked!
It's okay, but like I said before it's kind of feeling like they are trying to stick soooo close to ANH that you can almost feel it. Like they were scared to stray too far away from what they know works. Everyone said they hoped Luke wouldn't recreate the Jedi and make the same mistakes, well here it looks like he's already adopted the same clothing. I kind of hoped he would keep the black. Maybe that's just his fancy Jedi Master garb he wears. Kind of like a dress uniform. :lol
BTW, the other thing bugging me is C-3PO's red arm. Are you telling me you can afford new X-Wings and other ships, but not a replacement arm for your droid? Princess Leia who probably still has access to a lot of Alderaanian royal money that was off planet...

I honeslty dont don't know how I feel about Luke... I was figuring he would wear normal clothes but just keep the hood to portray his old friend. Going so exact to bens dress up.... I don't know
im glad I'm not the only one who is bothered by the red arm

But wouldn't that be a spoiler? Too many threads.

Yes MooCricket. Very YES.
And guys, this, the downed at at, the saber, and the ties and xwings are all we see that is old trilogy...
The rest is all new change up stuff.
Sorry, but I've been missing the OT vibe.
Do you want the PT part2?
Or do you want to feel like your home?
Haters gonna hate...

Man Disney is pulling that Luke pic off the web as fast as they can.
Luke looks awesome 
Anyone have a clue what constable zuvios story is?
Those action figures and packaging to me are very unappealing. I see nothing interesting or exciting there.
I was spoiled with the original vintage cardbacks they will always be the ultimate for me.
Thanks for the photos whoever posted them.

All I know is he looks to be sporting the same outfit as Embo in the Clone Wars. I am really hoping that is significant...
I could care less about the packaging. I open my toys to pose and play with.
My main focus is Imperial forces and astromechs, with Mandalorians and Rebel pilots a frustrating addendum. So I'm excited about Phasma and the pilot and the flametrooper and the stormtrooper; I'm gonna get Poe and BB-8; and I like the extra armor they gave Boba, even if most of the rest of that series' extras are kinda meh.--Jonah
I'd rather have something new, doing something in this universe, than have stuff rehashed and pandering to things I saw already just to appeal to nostalgia for nostalgia sake. I give points to the PT for at least attempting to do something new. I don't want to see X-wings, I saw Tie-fighters, I saw Stormtroopers already; I saw all this already! It doesn't makes sense lore-wise and film-wise to keep these things. None of this makes sense. The potential of the Star Wars universe is huge and to see potential squandered by staying stagnant and enslaved by following patterns laid in a film 30 years ago just for people to go "OoOOOoo, I remember that!" is a complete waste. It's time to move on.
I like seeing Luke and friends again but if what I read and suspect is true, another "twin" story arc with Kylo being the long lost sibling of Rey and they're both kids of Han and Leia (seriously, can't we get some new characters in here to follow with nothing to do with the Skywalker family?) and Kylo's mask is a reworking of Vader's melty bucket; the sheer thought of that makes me nauseous.
I say it's having discerning tastes.

Exactly. The OT was about Skywalker, Han, Leia, and of course Vader. With all their inter-connections. To move completely out of this will not work for this new Trilogy (even PT had some of these characters in them). We have the extra movies like Rogue One which will deal with stories most likely outside of Skywalker family.
Why wouldn't it work? I don't understand that. The OT warranted a sister story that showed how that world and situation was set up; of course the PT is gonna have tie-in's and recurring characters. Even taken alone, the OT works well as a self-contained universe. The story is about and ends with Luke Skywalker as he rights the wrongs and in brings peace. It should come to reason that in his dotage, he passes Excalibur down to a new set of kids with their own set of problems. Luke solved his problems, why does it have to be continuous inheritance of the father's (and his father's) problems?
What could Oldken possibly want that would please him? Probably would have to direct the film himself. People bitch if some things are rehashed or payed homage to, people bitch if too many looks of things are changed from originals. THEY CANNOT WIN OVER EVERYBODY NO MATTER WHAT THEY DO. Please one person, **** off another, and vice versa.

Apart from the costume ... Mark Hamill looks quite concerned ... even scared for having his pictures taken in front of those many scanning camera's ... is this standard procedure nowadays having actors captured with full costume for creating those action figures . . . or is this somehow movie making related?

What?
Have you read my posts?
I excited about all of it.
Luke looks AWESOME.
Symcha, he's got the look on his face of "is that stage hand supposed to be taking a picture on his cell phone?" LOL.
He's looking right into the lens of whoever took that picture...

It could be action figure related, but it's also possible that it's a 3D scan for the purposes of inserting a CG Luke into an action sequence they couldn't shoot with a stunt double. Let's just hope it doesn't involve him surfing down an elephant's trunk.
