Wow. I had not thought of that, but that would have been a fabulous exclusive that people might really want to display (after Han shot first, of course).
Exclusive Edition size = 750
Yep, like Lando.

did anyone else think to right click save on the exclusive image?
it's decent size. SO the exclusive poster better be bigger then the image posted LOL!

If it's a full size frameable print, it'll be pretty sweet, but if it's an accessory, it'll get 0 playtime.
Not a fan of the exclusive, which is fine for me. Can find this for less outside of their site.....

I was on the wave length that the exclusive could've been an alternate blaster-wounded velcro chest piece that could fit just inside of the vest. My opinion is the exclusive is pretty weak, seeing as it never saw any screen time.

Maybe Lucas can CGI it in on the Super Duper Special Edition Blue Ray

That poster is really unoriginal... it just says
"WANTED
HAN SOLO"
that's it. Oh yeah, and those 7-ish looking things on the sides are credit signs, pretty much starwars dollar signs ($)
here's the poster in English (for all who did not see the picture of the poster on sideshowcollectibles.com, this is not the real picture, it has been translated from star wars letters to english)
I guess they figured people on Tatooine didn't care about the money they were paid for bounties, as long as they were paid....
I mean, what if someone killed/brought solo to Jabba, and he didn't even know how much the bounty was for?
BOUNTY HUNTER: "Here's Solo. Now pay me the bounty. How much is it?"
JABBA: "Jabba pay you, but only give a cheeseburger!"

Sideshow should have put how much the reward was...
PS and the reason it had no "screen time" was because aurek-besh (the sw alphabet, in which the poster is written) hadn't been conceived of by George Lucas yet when he made ANH... they actually had some english letters on the tractor beam control, so aurek-besh was invented later and replaced the english letters in one of the special editions...

I wonder if they've held off on offering worthwhile exclusives to avoid the drama that comes from people missing out on good ones.

I am not keen on this 'poster' exclusive and am not impress by it in the least bit. On a brighter note, it works better for me as getting Greedo and the Cantina Environ from my local retailer will save me quite a lot on Fedex shipping and custom fees.
So I watched the Greedo sequence and I didn't see any moment where Greedo has any pockets on his vest.
I read on wiki that his vest changed when they did pick-ups but it didn't explain how it changed.
In fact, the only reference I can find with pockets on vest in the GG bust.
So what's the deal? Should Greedo's vest be pocket-less? If so, why did SS add the pcokets? Is it just Han's vest in a different color?
And does anyone have reference of Greedo's belt/holster? I thought it had silver boxes on it in back... but the SS one looks to be just Han's belt more or less.
Just curious if there's accurate ref out there or if any Greedo experts know what's accurate.
BTW, I do know that the "exploding" Greedo in the one frame before he blows has the pockets on the vest. Not sure if this is the same vest as the "Going somewhere Solo" shot before it goes into the pick-ups.

I don't know where the image is from, but I found this over at TheForce.net.
I believe this is the exploding dummy for Han's shot before it gets set off.
As for the holster, it's just a figure, but even Hasbro used a Han-esque setup, so that's probably how it was, given the budget, I'm sure they just took a spare Han belt, cut some parts off and bang, Greedo belt.

Did I really have to go all the way back to page 8 (page 16 for those of you on the ten threads per page option) to find this thread?
Anyway...I am stoked because I got the notice that my waitlist reservation for the Exclusive will be converting in 2 days.
