Lessee...how about 300 more pieces (the original was only 263), a new Luke (Dagobah training outfit), more authentic looking landing gear (and at least the front one looks “Jedi Starfighter” retractable, though I can’t see enough of the rear ones to know for sure), a much better tapered fuselage that appears to be about 5 studs longer, and a more streamlined nosecone design? That’s just what I can tell from the tiny little picture that Tim posted (you know, aside from the addition of Yoda’s hut and a few swamp-clingies). Besides, that hut looks large enough to be a $15-20 set by itself, so especially given the piece-count disparity, I’m surprised it isn’t going to cost $60. My question is if that backpack Luke’s wearing is large enough to cram Yoda in or not.
