Star Wars: Ralph McQuarrie Concept Collection Action Figure Set (1 of 2) Review

I am a huge Star Wars toy collector. Perhaps it's Hasbro's fault for creating these multi-pack sets and being tight on space, but I don't really think that's any reason to cheat us out of the complete figures. Don't be fooled by the images. There are a ton of accessories missing from these figures. Boba Fett is missing his flame effect and extra head, Darth Vader is missing his alternate head, The Storm Trooper is missing his blaster pistol and riot shield, Star Killer Hero (female) is missing her lightsaber, Chewbacca is missing his blaster pistol, and Han Solo is missing his blaster pistol. The image shown to display these figures in this set shows the figures with more of their accessories. For collectors this is a great inconvenience to receive incomplete figures.
There should be a disclaimer or warning on the site, and Brian's Toys/Amazon should have more accurate images of the figures.
I'm almost always satisfied with Star Wars figures by Hasbro so i was dismayed to be so disappointed.
Thanks.

When George Lucas wanted to transform his screenplay for Star Wars into a film, he turned to the concept artist Ralph McQuarrie. These action figure sets take McQuarrie's original concept designs and sculpt them into a unique group of action figures that are both comfortingly familiar - and surprisingly different. Set #1 contains Concept Chewbacca, Concept Han Solo, Concept Obi-Wan, Concept Yoda, Concept Boba Fett, Concept R2-D2, and Concept C-3PO. Set #2 contains Concept Vader, Concept Storm Trooper, Concept Snow Trooper, Concept Rebel Trooper, Concept Star Killer, and Concept Luke. Each figure is sculpted at the 3 3/4"-scale. Collect this unique look at the Star Wars phenomenon. Window box packaging.

I love the idea behind this. It's so seldom that we see anything regarding Ralph McQuarrie's concept art for the original Star Wars. These figures are a great representation of what might have been. R2 looks pretty cool. His all grey, but he has a bunch of neat gadgets. C-3PO is a bit boring and doesn't stand well. He looks like a miniature version of the Oscars award statue. Not my favorite set of the bunch.
