Well, I can't say for sure that it's disappointing. Maybe it was for the OT fans since the only OT set was the rather illusive Death Star (don;t think they got it here yet). But I was happy that I manage to get the Republic Attack Gunship (why can't they give them their actual name?) because I missed out on the one that came out those few years back.
Overall I guess it was an okay year but I do hope that come 2009 there will be better sets with more minifigs of clones/troopers and reprints(?) of older sets (especially the OT ones)... Must... be... optimistic !!
