The Toy Box section of Star Wars Insider #75 has some big news today about what we can expect to see in 2004. To start off with, there is confirmation of the repainted Sandcrawler. It will come with two Jawas (that appear to be of the POTF2 variety) and a silver Death Star Droid!
Other vehicles that were announced are Darth Vader's Tie Fighter, Boba Fett's Slave one from The Empire Strikes Back and the Y-Wing...You'll find them all gracing the shelves of Toys R Us this year.
And, if that was not enough news for you there was the confirmation that the OTC basic line will include only 2 waves of newly sculpted characters. The Dagobah wave will kick the line off, re-carded figures will hit the shelves during the year and the Cloud City wave will round out 2004. The figures on the Retro Cards will "have added articulation and deco - more than Hasbro usually includes on basic figures".
Pictures of the Sandcrawler and the Retro Carded Leia can be seen on pages 85 and 86 in this month's Insider!
