In the Cross Sections book that someone mentioned earlier, the cutaway of the
Jawa Sandcrawler shows the "Decoy Pod from Tantive IV" which I am guessing is
R2-D2's and C-3PO's escape pod. So I believe this settles it, the Jawas got
the Escape Pod.

Aldar Beedo is a podracer pilot. He doesn't seem special for any reason
though. Just the average podracer pilot (sort of like Gasgano). So the set
will probably include his podracer.
