That wouldn't surprise me in the least. Hasbro did a real good job making the exclusive less exclusive courtesy of Saga Legends. What's next? Jorg Sacul? Silver figures? Any of the others we got stuck paying $15 a pop for??  >:(

I am really thinking about not buying exclusive figures any more.  Why pay the inflated price when in a year or two, I can pick it up for half the cost?   If Hasbro continues down this path, I think that they will see less of a demand for the exclusive figures while people choose to wait for the cheaper version to be re-released as a Legend or whatever.

I am sure the big h has a bunch of these laying around and thought... let's sell them off as legends!!! oh well, I could use more shadow stormtroopers... the purple from hasbro toyshop... I bought 10 and that is well enough... I did not care for that one.

I was never able to get a covert opps trooper (purple).  I can't wait till they rerelease these they were too exclusive the last time.  Maybe this time I can actually get one!

i bought 4 or 5 when the utuapaun troopers were first released. this time it should be easier to army build though as they will be cheaper. i think last time they were 10 or 15 dollars a piece. i also want to army build some shadow stormtroopers.
