That was a cool element of the Star Tours, having a unsuspecting guest as the Rebel.

We did Dinosaur, but my kids ended up being a little freaked out they way they made it pretty realistic, though I liked it. One of my girls' favorite thing was the Test Track and also Soar at Epcot. My other daughter is the more adventurous one and is my ride buddy, her favorites were Rock 'n Roller Coaster at Hollywood Studios and Expedition Everest roller coaster at Animal Kingdom.

Yeah, that looks to be awesome Balantai. Hopefully we can go back in 5 years and check that out.

That's awesome that your son got to do that Fret. That's a memory for a lifetime. Some kids would be afraid to go up and do that, but it's cool that he did it.

Oh, that's the best part! Seeing the pictures at the end is hilarious. My sisters and I laughed until we cried at some peoples' faces. Even the tough looking dudes have wide eyes.

I just had the opportunity to run HoSS' Han Solo in a Planet Wars tournament in Grove City, PA on Saturday. I wanted to give heroscaper2010 a big shout out for the chance to play Han as well as giving me the mini and finished card to keep after the tournament. He also brought Chewie w/ card to give away as a special bonus at the end of the tournament and my wife's name was randomly drawn to win him as well!

As far as how Han did, I finished in 3rd place out of 17 players. The rules were that your entire 480 point army had to be from the same planet, and Han was ruled to be from Earth for the purposes of the tournament.

My army was fairly vanilla: 4 x 10th Regiment of Foot, Han Solo, and Deadeye Dan.

I only got to play 4 games because I drew a first round bye since we had an uneven number of players. My only loss was to an all viper army that rolled a ridiculous number of frenzies (taking nothing away from my opponent, he and many others at this event are top notch Heroscapers). Han solo was activated in every game except one, when my red coats took out a marro army with no help needed.

My impressions (without giving away anything for those who are waiting for the official release) after playing him at the tournament and in several practice games leading up to the tournament is that he is a solid, versatile, and well designed hero who, when given the opportunity to, seemed to earn his points in kills and be a pain for the opposition to take out. He did win me a game against a Glad/Blast army after most of the common troops were destroyed and it came down Han against Warden 816 and Kira Jax (C3V).

He's also got great theme/abilities that are iconic for the character. Really nice work by HoSS on this card (and Chewie's) and I'm very much looking forward to the rest of HoSS' first release. Big thanks to heroscaper2010 on offering Han to our group to preview in our tournament and for generously giving away Han and Chewie on Saturday!

That's really awesome, rudyvalentine! I'm so glad you enjoyed playing with Han.

Great work HS2010.

Yeah, he doesn't mention this is against his wife.

~HS2010, who got beat by the same Glad/Blast army...

Yeah, so depending on how fast you can read, you can see all the changes we made to each unit before release.
