They really went all-out on the packaging, I hope the actual figure quality isn't sub-par, you really can't tell by promos.

His arms sort of split, like this:

THESE PICKS HAVE BEEN AROUND FOR SOME TIME NOW. I'VE SEEN PICS OF THE DARTH SIDIOUS, OBI-WAN, ANAKIN, VADER, CHEWIE, AND DOOKU FIGURES. THERE WAS A SITE THAT HAD THE PICS POSTED OVER A MONTH AGO. THE PICS EVEN SHOWED THE BACK OF THE PACKAGES THAT LISTED ALL OF THE FIGURES FOR THE FIRST WAVE. I'LL SEE IF I CAN FIND A LINK FOR YOU GUYS.

They had a whole thread about it at MF.com, but they're down right now.

I've never been to MF.com that I remember. I know I've tried but I've always received error messages about the site having exceeded its bandwidth or maybe it was just down at the time. So I stopped trying.

I've never even been curious enough to go.

that pic makes no sense. Grevious has 2 blue light sabers and 2 green. Shouldn't all 4 be red?

He took them from the Jedi he has killed, and he hasn't killed any Jedi with red sabers.

Actually, I think it explains the whole thing in like the last 2 eps of the Clone Wars series(which is up as a torrent at myspleen).

Well, the official DVD release is in March if I'm not mistaken.
