That’s an underrated and fantastic 2-pack from that era. Even today they’d be well-sculpted and look awesome and that particular deleted scene was actually kinda cool to watch on the Episode II DVD.

They were remodeling to expand grocery at the time, so must have been pulled out from under or behind the gondola. I was ecstatic as I was never able to find this set back in ’03.

I was lucky enough to score a case of that TRU exclusive LC ’10 wave after many months of trying. Unfortunately never came across any more of the “new” figures in that wave, just the carryforwards. I would have been thrilled to find a Jaina Solo on a beat up card! Congrats!

Well, 2 years ago I found the McQuarrie concept C-3PO and R2-D2 at some random video club. Beat that!

Who in their right mind would do that with THAT figure though, worth a small fortune <_<

I was surprised to say the least. I obviously asked if they had any more but alas. This one looked like it had been left out in the sun for ages, the figure itself is fine but the packaging looks sun bleached. Its good though as I sold my original one on Ebay so this was my second chance
