wouldn't hurt to try it and see. That darn Mustafar playset for Revenge of the Sith was and still is hard to find these days. That playset looks more like a He-Man and Masters of the Universe playset for your Skeletor figure and others too
never seen anyone use it with Joes, but it is 3 3/4 inch scale so it would work (same scale Star Wars & Joes - more or less) - So yeah it would work I guess...

While I don’t own the actual play set, I do own the figures that come with it. The pegs for the feet are the same diameter as 25th Anniversary Joes but the pegs on the play set might be raised higher. I know this is the case with the figure stands that came with the Saga Collection SW figures. I’m sure this can be fixed by simply sanding the pegs down slightly. The only other thing that may possibly cause a problem is the difference in were the holes are in the feet of Star Wars vs. 25th GI*JOE figures. The SW figures have the hole in their feet where it should be: the heel. It’s possible that this could cause a problem but judging from pictures I’ve seen, it should be fine. You wouldn’t be able to use the pegs with ARAH Joes. I’m sure you could still use the play set with ARAH Joes. You’d just have to get ARAH figure stands.
On a side note, the figures that come with the play set are really cool. They are the least articulated versions of Obi-Wan and Anakin that you will find in the Revenge of the Sith line. While articulation is a must for GI*JOE figures, I kind of liked Star Wars figures better before they became so articulated. It just gives them a more vintage feel.

That is an awesome playset! Kind of makes me sad I sold all of my Star Wars stuff from 97 to 03. Great stuff!
Looking for a Convention Jinx MOC (The Black One). If you have one, let me know!
