“Wanted” posters are a cool thing to have appear in a game. They can be adventure hooks, to get the party into a new plot. Because chasing down a criminal can lead to all sorts of interesting twists: maybe they're not really a criminal and have been framed, or maybe they are breaking laws but for ethical reasons (à la Robin Hood), or maybe they are villainous but they have an offer the PCs might not want to refuse.
Another twist is that the poster might contain an image and description of the party of heroes! What weirdness has happened to produce this turn of events?

Aww, no tank chase scene. I guess there was a speeder chase quota the movie needed to meet to match Episode VI or something, so we're going to have that instead. Unfortunately, there's going to be a definite lack of tree and brush cover, so hopefully the sand dunes and random boulders can provide enough replacement cover to allow the heroes* to escape. And just how big are these speeders anyway? The one Poe is under looks big enough for maybe half the group.
Isn't it nice when you can reuse earlier preparations on something new? I bet that speech was written for any number of Han Solo escapades. Or at least, ones that Sally could imagine needing for various backstory plot hooks, or perhaps even just for fun.
* Possibly including Poe.
