Hmm. I must agree with all the other posters who have said they want to see something different instead of just a faster version of Obi FS. That being said, the idea of putting both spirits on the one team does interest me (assuming the worst, of course). Giving Luke Commando and Cade Bounty Hunter renewal sounds like fun.

Maybe Yoda, FS will be in the set too. It bugs me that they replaced Sebastian Shaw with Hayden Chrisitansen. I would be pissed if I were Obi and Yoda-"He leads an evil life, but he's the one that gets his youth back when he dies!" Also, why make the spirits red over blue?

I think that the use of young Anakin is brilliant. When you watch all 6 movies in one day and that final scene is up wi' Hayden Christiansen, the whole 6 movies as one culminates in an extraordinary way.

They could've replaced Shaw with Hayden when he dies in Luke's arms.

I'm looking at the underside of the base, and not seeing the words "Wizards of the Coast" . . It also looks like 15/30

To be fair to kezzamachine, he was probably part of a different generation. He was likely introduced to SW while the prequels were being released. So from that standpoint, I'm sure Hayden's inclusion in RotJ makes sense. In my case, though, I have a hard time swallowing that move. Does it connect the 6 movies better? Perhaps. Was the inclusion of Hayden necessary? I don't think so. I always saw Force Ghost Anakin (Shaw) as simply an aged version with the old jedi robes. Worked fine for me.

Oh, yeah - whatever. Next you'll be trying to tell me that the prequels weren't as good as the originals and that Jar-Jar makes you sick.
I actually saw Empire in the theatres when I was 6. I grew up with the original trilogy and had Star Wars toys, trading cards - even a plastic replica Han Solo blaster complete wi' sounds. My favourite of the hexalogy is III and like the prequel trilogy slightly better than the originals. I know that as soon as I say this, I will be lambasted, but that's okay - I'm fine with that. It's nothing new.

It's nothing new. Interesting....I would have never guessed. Truth be told, I don't mind the prequels. The only thing I dislike about the prequels: the forced love scenes between Padme and Anakin. They are painful to watch during Attack of the Clones. I do like Episode III the best out of the prequels. Also, I like Jar Jar ;). He's not as bad as some people would claim.

Jar jar is no where near as bad as the kid that played Anakin in the first movie. The PT wasn't bad but it doesn't hold the same flame as the originals to me. Empire's still the best. And everytime I see that rancor owner cry I still snicker. Call me cruel but I can't help it.

This is a force spirit of Anakin. Luke helped redeem Anakin before he died. So this Force Ghost should not be a dark spirit.

I suppose of all the minis we get out of MOTF, I'm disappointed in an Anakin Force Spirit, about as much as the Dejarik pieces.

I have to admit, I am not happy about the inclusion of the Dejarik pieces especially when this is the last set. Atleast I know where to store them, right next to all the knobby white spiders and TIE crawlers. Out of sight out of mind.
