The second wave for 2009 has been revealed, and it will be centered on characters from The Empire Strikes Back! This wave will also include a Build-A-Droid (B-A-D) series of what looks to be U-3PO and not HK-47, as had been previously reported. (Although interestingly enough, U-3PO WAS rumored to be part of this wave initially.)

This wave includes the following figures:
  • BD-38: Luke Skywalker
  • BD-39: Emperor Palpatine
  • BD-40: Captain Needa
  • BD-41: Princess Leia
  • BD-42: Hoth Rebel Trooper (Version 1)

    Missing from this gallery are the Ugnaughts, who may or may not be a 2-pack. Previous information suggests this will be a running change between the two versions, but perhaps they will be packed together after all. Time will tell...

    In addition, several figure from wave 1 will also be repackaged in this wave, complete with the new BAD accessories
  • BD-08: Darth Vader
  • BD-33: Jawa & WED Treadwell Droid
  • BD-34: Ben (Obi-Wan) Kenobi


    And in case you aren't sick of them yet, here's one more chance to nab a "Greatest Hits" figure...with the new B-A-D part, of course!:
  • GH-02: Kashyyyk Trooper

    And just for good measure, we've also got a nice pair of shots of the Trinto Duaba and Dice Ibegon set, which will be part of the A New Hope wave
  • BD-37: Trinto Duaba & Dice Ibegon

    George Lucas has announced he's done making blockbuster feature films after Indiana Jones 5. He states that one of the factors that weighted heavy on the decision was the negative comments made by fans. The Probe Droid is curious what you think about that.
    We didn't mean it! Please make more movies!
    Boo. I don't like that at all. More movies please.
    We got six movies that tell the full tale. I'm happy.
    Good for you George! You've earned it.
    Thank goodness!
    I don't see the irony here.
