The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket.

agreed. Just goes to show how greedy HT has become over the years. Fantastic products but the prices just keep creeping up and up. Annoyingly though I may have to get this one just because it's Yoda. I guess that's probably what they're relying on a bit with this one.

Blame Sideshow, not HT

I thought that The backpack might be the exclusive and seeing that it is not included, some people are speculating that there might be a Luke-in-training & Yoda double pack coming?

Yup. I love the portrait with his eyes closed. I may bite the bullet and pick this one up too.

Price is too high but Yoda is a must for a 1/6 OT Star Wars collection. Hope they make Snowtroopers.

They have re-released The Probe Droid & the E-Web Blaster, so I would say chances are high that Snowtrooper is next!

Was very close to pulling the trigger but once I saw that a Darth Maul PF was going up for pre-order next week I'm officially passing on Yoda. Even though I really want him. Oh well.
