4/6/2004 3:04:51 AM | Reported by Mike

Leading the figure assault for early spring is the new "Battle of Endor" themed wave from Hasbro featuring General Madine, General Lando Calrissian, and General Han Solo in AT-ST Driver disguise. While Lando and Madine sport all new sculpts, the Han Solo figure features a new head and borrows the body from the previously released POTJ/Saga Imperial Officer (except for the newly sculpted left hand holding a commlink).

Look for this wave to hit stores later this month!

Comments: Body is from 2002 POTJ Imperial Officer along with new hands with sculpted commlink. Han Solo head is all new sculpt.

Han led a strike team to the moon of Endor, to destroy the shield generator protecting the second Death Star high in orbit. Han had to get inside the Imperial bunker to disable the generator. Commandeering the uniform of an AT-ST driver, Han pretended to be an Imperial trooper. Using a communicator. he told the forces in the bunker that the Rebels were fleeing into the woods and reinforcements were needed. The troopers opened the bunker, and Han and his team attacked. With the help of the native Ewoks, the Rebel strike team defeated the Imperial forces and destroyed the generator, paving the way for victory at the Battle of Endor. (MORE IMAGES)

A strict military disciplinarian, General Crix Madine was an important Alliance officer and advisor to Mon Mothma. It was Madine who masterminded a number of crucial Alliance operations that paved the way for victory at the Battle of Endor. Madine was tasked with finding a way to destroy the shield generator protecting the second Death Star. His personally trained soldiers captured the Imperial Shuttle, Tyderium. With this shuttle, Madine's troops, under the command of General Han Solo, infiltrated Imperial territory on the Sanctuary Moon. (MORE IMAGES)

After the daring rescue of Han Solo from Jabba the Hutt, Calrissian became a General in the Alliance Forces. He volunteered to spearhead the starfighter attack on the second Death Star while Admiral Ackbar led the capital ships. When the Death Star proved operational, Ackbar was ready to retreat. Instead, Calrissian commanded the Alliance Fleet to engage the Imperial Fleet at point blank range, offering limited protection from the Death Star's massive superlaser weapon. Lando led the starfighters into the station's incomplete superstructure, striking the station's reactor core with a volley of concussion missiles that caused it to explode. (MORE IMAGES)
