For Dagobah, what would the vehicle have been? Yoda's escape pod? :P
That's the only thing it could have been- they wouldn't have done another X-wing :)
@new news- now I've stopped looking at the minifigs, those spring-loaded missiles look interesting, especially how they can be used as hand-held blasters to fire studs as well. I just hope there's a way for the stud to stay attached to the blaster when it's not being fired, otherwise I'm going to have a lot of studs falling off troopers all the time, like how I've got lightsaber beams acting as laser beams falling out of blaster turrets and the first minifig-scale Star Destroyer...
Anyway, the figs in the mainstream sets are very underwhelming, however the construction of the wheel bike and the vulture droid does seem to be significantly improved. I love Eta-2's but I don't think I'll bother with a remake of Anakin's one if that's all we're getting for figs, but I'm guessing one or two more will be added to this one, the wheel bike and possibly the V-wing.
In comparison with what darth_tater on Eurobricks has said, I really hope he's right about everything he said and he actually saw a newer version of the catalogue. Except for the Kashyyyk battle pack- I'd take a clone over a wookiee any day.
Also, it's great to see we're getting a cheap way to get Royal Guards, I know they're being complained about a bit, but I'd like to have a few more personally, and also good to see the spear is getting replaced by a decent force pike (the ones shown are obviously stand-ins, as are the DS gunner helmets)
