Amazon has the [ame="https://www.amazon.com/Star-Wars-Action-Figure-Playset/dp/B00CM5D8QE"]Slave 1[/ame] and [ame="https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00CM5D86Y"]Tie Intercepter[/ame] for pre-order at $100/50 respectively.

I think these are way overpriced. I purchased the clone wars Slave 1 for $70 (retail was still only $99) and it came with two spaceships, a cargo container and five decent figures. I figured that Slave 1 would be $75 at most, and $60 being the sweet spot. For the price, the paint job should have been much better, and should have been hit with a dark grey wash and sport the blaster marks.

And here I was bemoaning spending so much time repainting my Clone Wars version.

$75? Umm, more like should be $39 for Slave 1. It doesn't come with any figures. At $100 it should come with at least the same stuff as the Clone Wars release you mentioned.
 
That's not a repaint of the Rise of Boba Fett Slave I is it? Just the same old POTF one they have been re-releasing every few years right? If so that's a total ripoff. You are paying $100 for the vintage style packaging which will likely arrive dented and scratched. For that kind of money you are better off buying the REAL Kenner vintage Slave I MIB.
 
It is a repaint of the Rise of Boba Fett Slave I.

$100! We could almost buy our own ship for that!

It is, with some modifications.

The Rise of Boba Fett Slave I and "new" Slave I ships are larger than the POTF and all earlier versions. The Amazon version is the largest ESB version of Slave I made available by Hasbro/Kenner. Still not worth $100, even with the vintage packaging.

Gotta get this one as i missed Jango's version. Wish they had added a figure at that pricepoint though.
 
Try living in the uk. I'm guessing that if we get it we will be looking at £100 (about $150)

Sucky.

Just making sure I didn't mistake what you're saying. This release will be the same size as the Rise Jango version but in OT Fett colors, right?
 
From the first pics it does look like we won't seen anything for the 4" line that hasn't already been revealed/displayed.

That's a damn good Stormtrooper sculpt (from the Saga Legends/Mission Series line).
