Also like Kylo, this figure is a mixed bag. Kylo featured a better "force push" left hand and a more movie accurate lightsaber, but he had that white frosting on his feet and at the bottom of his cloak, so he wasn't quite the perfect replacement for the regular Kylo. The same applies to Rey.
While she comes with the lightsaber that everyone wished she had come with the first time around (although it was left out for spoiler reasons, I assume. Still not a reason to not include it with Finn, though!), she doesn't come with any other accessories (other than the base parts) and she also has that snow effect on her feet. So, unless you have a Kylo and want the Rey to make your display complete, the only real reason to buy this Rey is for the lightsaber. (Or you can shell out some big bucks for the older Anakin figure, or wait for the upcoming Episode IV Luke coming in a month or so.)
So, I'm a bit torn on this one. With this coming out, I'm now thinking that it might be cool to get the Kylo (still fairly affordable on eBay) and pair with the upcoming Rey. It would make for a pretty cool display! But, I do already have both the regular release Kylo and Rey... Hmmm... What to do....
Price and release date are still pending on this one; and while it is up on Kmart's site, it's listed as "temporarily unavailable".
