This is awesome! I love how it is on the easiest-to-navigate page and how you don't need to log in to see what is frankly one of the coolest things to happen to minis since, um, Rebel Storm came out ;) Keep up the awesome work team!!!

Thanks for the nice words but really we have put official previews on the main page forever.
We used to get official Wizos previews and they went on the front page. So honestly this is nothing new but thanks for finally finding the main page. I dont think most folks have known it has been there for the last 4 years.

Nice to remind us though that there are other pages worth a look see. Nice previews, A lot were asking for a fringe Han Solo so hope there's a lot of excitement for this character.

I think the Commando guy is a nice fig, and an interesting addition to the Rebel Commando subfaction, I wouldn't expect him to make it into many top tier squads, but I'm sure that's very intentional.
The Han is great. I am one of those who has wanted a fringe Han forever, and I see a lot of potential with him, particularly with OR, Imperials and Seps. Nice to have a decent accurate shooter for under 30pts.

I like the card layout and it compares favourably with the previous two SWM card designs. Having both the faction and pt value in the upper right hand corner is a nice touch. When you are deck building it seem to me more natural to have those two pieces of information clustered together. I will miss the faction color being indicated at the top but it is a change I can certainly live with.
As far as the stats go, as a non-tournament player (in otherwords based on my less than top tier understanding of the game) the stats seem to relate well to the point values.
Thanks for the previews!

Glad you guys are liking these so far. I think the Commando is a prime example of how the Design team really has been trying to think about all aspects of the game while working on this. As someone else pointed out, it probably won't be a top-tier piece, but it's a nice addition to other squad types, and people should have fun with it. So there are certainly some pieces in the set aimed for the more casual crowd, and not just 60 pieces of power-house, game-changing, competitive stuff. ;)
The Han is one of my favorites, and I look forward to trying him out in OR, Republic, and Imperial squads, where he can easily get Double and Greater Mobile. We haven't had an Accurate Shooter for this cheap since Clone Commander Cody in COTF, and only Boba YM before that, so it's nice to breathe some fresh life into that realm of the game. Will make for a great option for many squads for that 3rd threat.
