I have the original and it's in really good shape, but I just had to support my local game store by ordering the reprint. I'm also hoping to run some sort of WEG SW game in my local game store to celebrate its release. I'm not sure of the exact release date, but I was thinking it was coming up soon....

I will be picking up my copy after work tomorrow. Even though I have these two books on the shelf, and there can't be much in the way of new content (except for new intro) I don't see my self getting much sleep tomorrow night.

There’s nothing quite like shiny new books, is there?

Found an “unboxing” video.

I am starting to see this set all over the place. I thought it was going to be a smaller print run, but it looks to be pretty big. Amazon has it, and there is at least one seller going through Amazon to sell it. eBay has new copies being sold (for about $47 and change--the least expensive price I've seen). I've heard that some Barnes & Nobel stories have it.
This sounds like it is selling well.
My hope of all hopes is that FFG publishes both game lines--their version of SW and reprints (and new material!) for the D6 rules.
I'd love to see FFG come out with a second set that includes the Imperial Sourcebook/Rebel Alliance Sourcebook combo.

I'll second that. It would be an awesome victory for Star Wars fans and old school gamers if FFG revived the WEG line with reprints and new products, even if they just do them as PDFs like WotC with their D&D stuff.

I wish they’d sell the Rulebook by itself, because I would pick up 7 copies. I like to have copies for all my players, but I don’t need a single extra Sourcebook. (And the set is too expensive to just suck it up and buy 7 full sets.)
What else would I want to see reprinted, hmm, well, it has been relatively easy for me to obtain many of the 1e supplements I wanted…
Campaign Pack Tramp Freighters Planets of the Galaxy, Volume One Heir to the Empire Sourcebook Alien Races Tatooine Manhunt Starfall
…but some of the 2e stuff is very rare and expensive. My grails are:
DarkStryder Deluxe Campaign Set and the eminently useful Stock Ships

For a 1E game, I find all of the WEG D6 stuff useful, even if printed for 2E. The conversion to 1E ain't that hard, except for Speed Codes, the GM just ignores the extra detail.
So, really, 2E stuff is 1E stuff.
