    Yes.

    Han Solo is Raid Han.

    Am I thw only one thinks thats dumb? Either you can get the shards with your guild, so you already have solo maxed, or you cant, in which case, 40 shards wont make any difference either..

    Why not captain han solo?

    The login shards don't make much difference regardless of who it is. A little over 1 shard a day? Ok.

    Either it's shard shop currency or a tiny fraction of what you need.

    I think it’s pretty cool. Opens up the possibility of GK, and treya. Many moons from now for sure but still opens it up.
    Also as a longer tenured player I ve been getting Raid Han 3 times a week anyway.

    It could be the new Han Solo

    Idk. Maybe it’s just my rosy disposition but I was never the type to want someone to suffer because I did- see FOTP.

    Also I can’t see how raid Han hurts anyone as the login toon. For people that don’t have him - cool.
    For the people that do - cool.
    For the people that had him 7* for such a long time and question why the rancor is still around - same.

    Something new and it’s topical - Solo movie.
    Also I don’t really hold out hope for a login toon that I don’t have anymore.
    Or maybe ! 4 Hans to unlock young han!

    If there is anyone that has been running guildless 40 shards will do little for them if that's all they'll get. I know my numbers could be wrong on this, but think it's 145 or some such to activate him. I know it's over 100

    While I am bummed about Raid Han being the login toon, it means that young guilds accelerate their farming of a toon which has been around since middle of 2016.

    With so much new content, this will encourage new players to stick around?

    It's 145 and you're absolutely right.

    Let's be honest.. to long term players, all login characters are shard shop fuel.

    As a long term player my face was not slapped and I am happy for the shard currency. Working on GG as I never found reason to grind him. So for this long term player the only thing better would be actual GG shards for daily log in.

    So you're just mad about the timing. Bet you would have been all for it last month.

    I’m not really mad at all. Free shards are free shards. Would it have been nice a month ago? Sure. Still wouldn’t change the fact i have him 7* now.

    Yay another pointless log in character.. possibly the most pointless in SWGOH history. If you have him, he is 40 shards (over a month) for the shard shop... if you don't, he is 40 shards which doesn't even unlock him...

    GK log in character in June and Traya July ?

    i have only a 5* Raid Han so far, so i really like the additional shards on him.
    There are always players between "7* Han owners" and "dont have them players"

    i am happy with this log in character o:)

    Maybe they plan to replace him as a reward on the rancor raid? I mean a new Han is already in the making so that is not totally impossible

    Could be raid Han is going to be used in a legendary event, maybe the fifth guy for rotj Luke. Being a log in character isn’t enough to get him if you don’t have him anyway it’s mostly symbolic
