LEGO Star Wars Character Encyclopedia: The exclusive minifig is ....

This is the site Amazon.de which gives a clue on the exclusive minifig that would be delivered with this edition scheduled for October 2011 of the book LEGO Star Wars Character Encyclopedia.

As indicated in English in the description below:
"... More, there's even more. An exclusive Han Solo minifigure, receiving a medal in the same scene from a New Hope as our Luke Skywalker minifigure, not available anywhere else. Grab one before it's gone ..."

Looks like we're getting a Han Solo minifig that was medaled along with Luke Skywalker in Episode IV's A New Hope scene.
This minifig suddenly seems obvious in the logic of the editor, and seems satisfactory to me by allowing to obtain a duo of original and unpublished characters.

The information seems plausible, but as usual it is advisable to be careful, the time of exit of this work being still long, the choice of the minifigure can change.
