Hyperdrive bundle worth it?

I got a minor raise at work so I celebrated by buying it yesterday morning. It was worth it. My one complaint is that the only ship/character I got was my Vulture Droid. So a free star on that. I kind of thought that the rest of the characters that didn’t get upgraded would convert into shard shop currency or something since the description says their value will be “retained” and that could mean anything, lol!

But, anyhow, the gear and crystals and so on was really useful in preparing for Malak’s return. I also now have a nice surplus of extra gear that I know I’ll eventually need (ie: the Nubian security scanners you get from Pit raid) but not at the moment, so I don’t need to stockpile those.
