nearly
identical... but what differences there are actually seem to make them inferior to the originals. This has some side by sides:

Especially look at Luke, he seems to have suffered the most, somewhat sloppy molding and paint, etc. The article also mentions that the figures can't hold accessories properly.
If these are indeed a similar line, I'll only be grabbing them if theyre equal or improved remakes.
I was all set to buy the SW retro figs until I saw the reviews. I love nostalgia but I will not stand for a fig that can’t even hold their accessories.
