As reminder, none of the above Movie Heroes figures are really “new” as they are repacked/repainted sculpts from the past several years. Also take note that the Darth Maul (repacked SAGA #02/42) has the lower “skirt” assembled backward as compared to the previous sculpt. No word if the final product will ship with this error.
