4500 Rebel Snowspeeder 213pcs $19.99 The newly designed speeder appears to come with the same minifigs as the original set; Luke and Dak are listed and I'm trying to verify the Hoth Trooper. - fbtb.com
4501 Mos Eisley Cantina 193pcs $29.99 The cantina itself is nothing more than the alcove where the Rodian meets his fate; set includes Luke, Ben, Han, Greedo and a Sandtrooper. But that's not what gets you excited over this set - there's a dewback that ROCKS . . . and a newly designed Landspeeder in here too . . . - fbtb.com
4502 X-Wing Fighter Also a redesigned X-Wing fighter, complete with Dagobah seaweed and Yoda's hut.
10129 UCS Snowspeeder Due to be available here in the States between mid to late October, this 1,457 piece set (pay attention to that piece count - this is larger than the X-Wing and almost twice the size of the TIE Interceptor) will sell for $129.99. It is a LEGOShop.com /S@H exclusive. - fbtb.com
I don't have the product information for it, but there's also a Cloud City diorama featuring Lando, available this month (should be, anyway). Next summer there will be another redesign: a new Millennium Falcon.
Lastly: a trifecta, new Vader tie, plus two other TIEs. Yeah.

OK, I have to get a Boba Fett minifig, and I want a stormtrooper riding a. . . whatever that is. I don't imagine we'll be seeing a LEGO bantha anytime soon.

It's a Dewback.
There's still time for a Bantha - Lego's Star Wars license doesn't expire for another four years.

Han looks pretty happy considering he's about to blow Greedo away. Mabye this is part of Lucasfilm's "revamping" of the original trilogy: Not only does Greedo not shoot first, now Han and him hug and make up...
