Let me preface this by saying that I've been playing this game since the end of last year and this is all written in light hearted jest.
I can't help but feel both amused and annoyed that this game chose the most specific depiction for Han that totally don't match his iconic image. ST Han. Just...Why? Why would you depict Han as he was in one specific scene of one movie when anyone who hears the name Han Solo would immediately conjure up the image of him in his black vest and side blaster?
At first I thought maybe this was a set up to having a Pokemon-like game mechanic where characters will eventually "evolve" into later, more iconic versions of themselves. That would explain Luke on Tattoine or Clone Wars Chewie but that also means Old Ben becomes a missed opportunity.
I also had the thought that since they forced Han to be a Tank, they needed to depict him as having some form of armor but that's entirely silly considering Poe is in his normal wear.
So what's the deal CG? Why ST Han?

I've wondered this as well. I mean, no matter what nonsense he's wearing, he's still the same scoundrel he always has been.
Look at the latest movie, still a scoundrel.
No sense, none at all.
They are saving the iconic characters for an event and attract players. Surely you know that.
On a wild tangent, Carbonite Han can have Defense +10000 and Offense -10000. Unless Slave Leia (another character opportunity!) is present, in which case Han can't hit the broadside of a barn except 100% hit and critical chance against Boba Fett.
But strangely, we got only one (Yoda) for 6 month. Why such a slow pace ?
We all wait for Jedi Luke, Palpatine, Solo, even R2-D2. In the help section of the game, you can see pictures of shards with Bespin Luke, Scoundrel solo, Bespin or Hoth Leia, and R2-D2.
And for Solo, you could get Scoudrel Solo, ST Solo, Carbonite solo, Tatooine Solo, Endor Solo, Hoth Solo, Old Solo, Crossbow Solo. Are they going to find skills for every version of the same character? Why not just give them differents suits so we can change the look of our characters.
Having Finn using his fn-2187 outfit also would be cool.
I thought Clone Wars Chewie was an odd choice, too. How can you tell the difference between him and any other Chewie? He's pretty much exactly the same throughout the movies.
That should have been the tank that RG is. Constant taunt and 1M health (Carbonite is hard).
They made a movie!??!!
Haha, Carbonite Han should have RGs taunt mechanic and be even more stout...but no offense!

I mean, c'mon, that's great stuff, lol!
Ya it is lol
Btw, he wasn't a rebel here. He was a scoundrel, looking for a big reward rescuing a princess. You'd think they'd give him double status like Lando.
Before that the Empire just viewed Han as an annoying scoundrel, but after that he be branded a Rebel, shoot on sight!
O
Everything is fine, don't nerf me, thanks, or RG or Dooku. Instead, make others stronger. OK thanks (blasts comlink)
Very simple. It gives you an iconic version of Han without the ULTIMATE version of Han that can be saved for a later patch.
Why not Jedi Knight Luke? Exact same reason. You talk about Luke Skywalker, nobody thinks of a guy with a sniper blaster.

That being said I like ST Han for the 1st choice I mentioned but would like to see a 'standard' Han eventually. (As well as a lightsaber Luke and younger Ben Kenobi)
Been farming Scoundrels just in case. Hopefully don't need 5 7*s
