The only thing I see is in the Birth of Darth Vader Pack, that robotic arm that is holding his helmet...wonder if that is plastic or is it just cardboard?

That's why I thought this battle pack looked cool.  However, I just saw this thing at Target.  The picture posted in this thread is the picture on the back of the packaging.  In the actual placement of the figures, there is no robotic arm holding the helmet.  Lame!  I put the thing back on the shelf and kept walking.  Bummer, had the actual figures been arranged as cool as the depicted picture (and with the robotic arm holding the helmet) I would have bought it and kept it packaged.

Well, good looking out. I knew it was too good to be true. So Hasbro pulled the timeless toy technique of making the pictures of the toys look cooler than the actual toy itself? That's been going on forever. Some things will never change.

Was it just a straight up repack of figs?  Of course, I can always use more exam tables and medical droids...
