Well yes I was only thinking of Classic but who can fault me for that :-). Yes
Darth Sidious or an Emporer would be nice. I don't think you need a ship to
create a set (although seeing what we have so far TLC might think otherwise).
I think playsets would be really cool. Just for Stormtroopers I can think of a
couple of playsets that would be cool.
1. Carbonite freezing chamber.
2. Mos Eisly-sp Cantina
3. Death Star Docking Bay.
4. As you mentioned with Dewbacks.
Plus that is just the very short list.
