“I'm pretty certain this would be one of the most popular sets among LSW fans considering the OT material, and the long time it took for this set to be re-made adds another level of desirability. TLG is once again capitalizing on the minifig-driven customer preference on... More buying sets, and for long-time LSW fans like us, this set is a welcome opportunity to add four new minifigs in our collection. Overall, one could never go wrong with this set, I highly recommend this to any avid LSW fan.”

“Unlike the previous version, the Sarlacc can fit one minifigure in its mouth. Actually it can fit two inside it's mouth. This is the first set to include Lando since 2009, also the first to include Lando in his guard disguise since 2006. There are four minifigures included,... More Luke Skywalker, Lando Calrissian, Boba Fett and Kithaba, all are new or redesigned.”
