"I wonder when Joker PF goes on pre-order today....Hmmmm... mmm?

Are you going DC on us? That's more of a Faker-Skiman type of move.

 

[Darth Waller]

Here, I'll be a total hypocrite...I'd buy vintage Kenner style prequel figures.

I don't give you a hard time about that. There's just something cool about the vintage line. I think it would work well with the PT characters and costumes. I wouldn't buy those, but I would buy vintage OT figures that didn't get made like Tarkin, Slave Leia, etc.

Poor ghost Anakin was erased from existence.

Yeah, that part bugs me too... 1) since removing an actor is a ****** move and 2) Hayden sucked so seeing him at the end of a good movie is a kick in the nuts.

I don't think I would, but I can't say I wouldn't be interested to see what this would look like. Like Waller though it would be even harder to turn down vintage styled figures of Tarkin or Slave Leia... I mean I've got the neck chain from Jabba's thone and I think Leia would look better hooked-up to it than C-3PO

Vintage style Stormtrooper Han would be awesome.... Dr Evazan too.

Have you seen the one a guy on Rebelscum did? Sadly, he's not making them available.

There was a guy on here that used to have a website for recast Droids and Ewok prototypes he would sell and he also sculpted a Kenner style Gargan, Slave Leia, and a cantina alien. He sculpted a 1/6th Blue Snaggletooth figure on here too. I forgot his name, Adam maybe?

 

[Deak Starkiller]

Never mind, you found it while I was "working"/typing.

 

[Darth Waller]

Kenner was going to do a Gargan, but didn't.

Baby got back.

So there are obscure background characters that never made it into the original lines, eh? I don't suppose Hasbro made that mistake with the newer figures. I even saw on JediDefender that the guy with the ice cream maker or whatever it is got a figure.

LOL

 

[Darth Waller]

I cracked up when I saw that guy the last time I watched ESB.

 

[karamazov80]

He valiantly protected his ice cream maker against all threats. I can't believe someone decided to give him a complex back-story and everything:

Sweet jesus

That might well be the single lamest Star Wars figure ever...

That might well be the single lamest Star Wars figure ever...

And you might be the single lamest person ever for saying that.

 

[Darth Waller]

"Who wants ice cream?"

Why so defensive? Did you just shell out 500 bucks for the Kubrick version?

 

[FLOSI]

I call this ode to Willrow:

 

[Darth Waller]

See that gut he has? Too much ice cream.

I would. . .if only they would let me. Next DX set should be Cloud City themed, and he is more than worthy of being one of the 1/96 blind boxed chases.

 

[user 1190]

Well he was made since he won the fan contest and was one of the most requested hasbro figure for a while.

Getting rid of Ice Cream Tummy is not easy... Mine has been shrinking as of late, which is a good thing.

How much do the 1/96ers go for? You'd pay 500 for a Willrow Hood Kubrick?
