When I found out a couple of months ago that we weren't getting Mace Windu
this year all my enthusiasm for the Ep.2 lineup suddenly disappeared out the
window (I know it sounds crazy but thats how much he's needed). However, I
am confident we'll get Mace(and Lando) eventually, so now I am kind of glad
we got an anonymous Jedi instead because he may never have been made
otherwise(??), and I for one am grateful for every variation of the Jedi
Knight we get.
The Republic Gunship is the most exciting Lego set I've ever seen in my life
-- a lot better than I expected. I don't own any of the other "expensive" SW
sets but I'm definitely getting this one! But then again I'm probably
biased, because to me the demise of the old republic is the most interesting
aspect of the entire SW saga--- and I've felt that way for the last 20 years.
Cheers
