Dark Lord of the Typos
Pics ahve been surfacing of the upcoming new Hasbro releases. StarWars.com had posted pics of them, including TWO versions of the Endor soldier! 
these figures are quite similar (kit-bashed) to the Blue-Saga line's Endor troopers. The biggest difference is these ones have jointed knees, 2 different pant camoflauge paint jobs, and new heads.
One head is a dark skinned trooper with a mustache. The other is an older caucasian male, who is a dead on likeness of Colonel Airen Cracken! Cracken worked alongside Page's commandos on Endor, and later became a General and head of New Republic Intelligence. He was an old character from the 1980s RPGs, and has been a constant presence in all manner of Expanded Universe material.
I, for one, am very pleased with this little easter egg.
