ok this has to do with the set basically, but more so SW itself. I haven't
really been following all the EII stuff, I want to go in not knowing all
that much. But out of what I have seen something has stuck out at me. Maybe
this has been discussed elsewhere already.  I noticed on this set the
insignia on it looks to me like the Imperial insignia from The Trilogy. I
noticed the same thing vagualy on a pic at starwars.com the other week. So
am I right that the Imperial insignia was originally used by the Jedi?

Yup, you are correct.  When Emperor Palpatine, I mean Senator Palpatine,
dissolved the Galactic Senate and made himself emperor(in Episode III) he
basically kept a lot of things including the wedgie design of star fighters
and capital ships and the insignia which *I think* was used by the jedi's
symbol (which would sense since it is on the Jedi Starfighter).

I don't think it's the Jedi's symbol. I think it's the symbol of the Old
Republic.
