PlayStation Home users are sadly denied the lovable pet, but they still get a nice new wardrobe.

Starting tomorrow, players can expand their Star Warsclosets with the following:

Xbox Live
Scout Trooper Armor (male/female)
Scout Trooper Helmet (male/female)
Rebel Trooper Endor Combat Fatigues (male/female)
Rebel Trooper Endor Combat Helmet (male/female)
Starkiller Jedi Hunter Costume (male)
Ewok Pet

PlayStation Home
Scout Trooper Armor (male/female)
Scout Trooper Gloves (male/female)
Scout Trooper Helmet (male/female)
Scout Trooper Bundle (male/female)
Rebel Trooper Endor Combat Fatigues (male/female)
Rebel Trooper Endor Combat Gloves (male/female)
Rebel Trooper Endor Combat Helmet (male/female)
Rebel Trooper Endor Bundle (male/female)
Starkiller Jedi Hunter Costume (male)
