Found these images while surfing this evening.

I can pick out every mini except the Holographic Veers and one other one in the pictures.

I see:
Rebel Leader
Han Solo on Tauntaun
ATGAR Cannon
Luke Skywalker on Tauntaun
Princess Leia, Hoth Commander
(4) various Hoth Troopers
Obi-Wan Kenobi, Jedi Spirit
Darth Vader, Imperial Commander
Snowspeeder
AT-ST, Blizzard One
(2) various Snowtroopers

I just wonder when we will get more detailed information on this set. According to the websites, this is scheduled for release on November 2nd.

That is still too close to the mockup for me to believe that those minis are the contents.

I mean, awesome minis and all, and looks totally cool, but WAYYYYYY too expensive for my tastes. I'm hearing ~$200... I can get two booster cases for that much. How is this worth even close to that much?

That's a lot more than i was expecting.
Seems odd to have that many uniques in as well. As i seen it somewhere there were only 2 VR in the set. ! being Veers the other Being the snow AT-ST. 17 figures in total.
This does not fit with the picture here.
Also i have Vader, Obi ,Luke, Leia & Han already the troops you can always use more of. A lot of money for figures i can not use.

Whats more anoying i only got that Vader & Obi this week of e bay.

These same pics are in the Hoth pack thread in the News section. There's a little more info about it there.

Anybody have a better idea on the release date than "around November"?

yeah, every stores still using the Mock up images as official pics of it have not been released.

If it makes it's Nov 2nd SD, then we'll likely see proper images about then.

Being both a student of history and having met several members of the SWM community, I think we can take 'em...... :lol:

Excellent! I noticed in the mock up that the AT-ST looks like the AoE version, however it is missing the Flames shooting out of the end of the cannons. What does this mean? I'm pretty sure most if not all of the items shown will not be in the set..but you never know.

I think it will include other than Blizzard 1 and Veers a:

Golan laser battery
Hoth troopers (a given)
Snowtroopers (a given)
Hoth trooper w/ Atgar
Snowtrooper w/ E-WEB
Hoth trooper w/ Repeating laser cannon
Leia Hoth Commander
Luke on Tauntaun
and maybe a Vader among others.

I'm interested to see how close or far i got.

I think the tauntaun will be generic.

I believe there was a mention of a Unique Snowspeeder. Probably Wedges. I also expect a Unique commander as a counterpart to Veers. Reikan perhaps.

And it is Blizzard SCOUT 1.

They said the snowspeeder would most likely be generic with nothing different from the BH one.
