I agree, only Shaak Ti was missing from the previews... well, that and the turret which is really pretty amazing for 26 (particularly if you're using Gambit rules).
I will make one observation... to everyone who thinks the Imperials didn't get much in this set... consider this.
Darth IC
Fel Officer
Many stormies
Something about a 5 point piece with a defense of 26 that just makes me want to throw up... and don't even bring up what Thrawn does to that...
As for the Dark Trooper... I think he's fine, just situational (which is correct in my opinion). I would agree if he'd been a couple more points and 30 health, I would have liked him a LOT more. Still, as is, very very powerful when used properly. I see them as similar to Rebel Vanguards...
I do agree that some of the previous pieces got even better (Yoda, Palp)... but I don't agree that we've seen some major resurrection of old stuff. By and large, the things we saw a TON of use of will get even more use. For example, they pumped up uggies... well, you already saw them in every squad. Palp and Yoda boosted... great, they were viable anyway. Show me how any of the old Republic Jedi became viable again (which didn't happen) or how a fringe shooter who was "so so" became useful, and you'll have my attention... but I've yet to see it at all. Kota can improve fringe shooters, but that happened anyway all the time with Thrawn... so the same fringe shooters will appear...
Still, the set isn't "game breaking" by any stretch... and it will revitalize SWM (hopefully... my LGSs haven't embraced it yet). And I'm having fun trying to figure out how the hell I'll store all THESE figs now
