You make a good argument about the cantina. My original thought was that Obi Wan stumbles into town at dawn after being out in the desert all night. A bandit demands his money, Obi Wan declines while reaching for his lightsaber to find it missing. Another bandit reveals the saber which he obviously pickpocketed when Kenobi first entered town. Not certain it's a good introduction for Anakin to rescue Obi Wan here. But perhaps he could then take him to get a drink and help him find a pilot. I thought it might be good to show why Obi Wan dislikes Mos Eisley so much...so violated as to have his lightsaber taken after a grueling hike in the desert, which to me corresponds well to his body language when talking about it in ANH. Thoughts?

I know you just want to make lots of money by selling Falcon toys! ;)

I think it's too much to have the Falcon. Otherwise I think Vader should have given the Falcon a fond pat, maybe sat in the cockpit to relive old memories in ANH, or something. I think it's better for Han (and Chewy) to have his own story.
