The best and worst Star Wars figure ever - Page 2

Technically, we should be naming figures that are simultaneously the best and worst. Concept Chewbacca definitely qualifies.

How about figs based on the manga adaptation?

George Lucas and his kids, in action figure form. Wow.

Edit: Hmm, it won't display the pic but if you click the link you'll see it.

If that's real, I'll eat the entire Sy Snootles and the Max Rebo Band playset.

It's totally real. I've actually seen this set at my local comic shop.

I'm surprised no one's made the comment about being able to re-enact the literal representation of the figurative disappointed fanboy's childhood raping with that stocking stuffer. Kinda like a Mego-morality play.

Gives new meaning to "stocking stuffer" if you know what I mean.

How about figures based on the casting sessions - Christopher Walken auditioning for Han Solo figure, or even better Kevin Spacey imitating Christopher Walken auditioning for the part of Han Solo figure.

I have a feeling the Scout Trooper was a Munny figure that's been heavily modified.

Awesome. I want these.

I have always been fond of Assface, the guy who got his arm cut off by Kenobi in IV. My friends loved looking at his assface. I wonder what it would have been like to get blown by that guy.

I'm still waiting on a Kevin Pollak Star Trek figure.

NERD ALERT!

I think Chris Kent's referring to Ponda Baba (AKA Walrus Man), the Aqualish mercenary, not his physician, Dr. Evazan. If you look (even in all the confusion of the scene) at the dismembered arm on the floor, it's clearly covered in an orange sleeve and if you look at Ponda Baba's face, it clearly looks like an ass.

I'd imagine a BJ from Walrus Man must feel a bit like prison-love (which villainous scum like Ponda Baba must know all too well).


He doesn’t like you. I don’t like you either.

He was also one of my first action figures ever (came in a JC Penny boxset with a couple other Cantina creeps), but for some reason, that figure had blue sleeves (with an orange vest... and flippers!). But the newer version even comes with a detachable arm and correct attire.

Holy fuck!
Take away my Star Wars badge right now.

For some reason I thought assface meant the good Doctor.
didn't even read the line about the cut-off arm.

I hate everything about myself, my life and I want to die.

If only Kenobi knew what he was truly saying....

Can't explain why, but I crack up whenever I think about someone actually recording his "dialogue".

I also really loved "Prune Face", mostly because he was one of the good guys.

That's stupid. How the fuck can he be a good guy and have an eye patch?

George Lucas raped my childhood.

Riddle me this: What's worse than owning a life-size Han Solo in Carbonite replica?

Owning one, removing Harrison Ford's face, and replacing it with your own.

Getting back to somewhere near the origin of this thread, I learned from my SW superfan friend that there will be about 16 of those concept figs, total. I saw his Chewie one, and it is indeed WEIRD.

I would like to have one of the Stormtrooper ones, though.

The Stormtrooper is OK-- it's a repaint of an older sculpt and it doesn't have the G.I. Joe articulation we're rapidly becoming accustomed to seeing from Hasbro. My current favorite is Artoo-- he's almost exactly like the drawing (which I believe was by Joe Johnston or Nilo Rodis-Janiero, not McQuarrie, but whatever) from the old Star Wars Sketchbook. Luke is a very clever design as well-- with his mask on he looks like one McQ painting from the back, and with it off he looks like a different painting from the front.

Having seen a couple of those concept figures in person (I understand they're semi-rare), I have to say they're almost cool enough to get me to start collecting again. My favorites are my 12-inch scale Biker Scout with Speeder Bike (it's huge) and my ROTJ Vader with Removable Helmet. My least favorite is probably that hideous Leia that came out in 1995.

Best unproduced figure: Padme Amidala with baby-making action

I would like to see a multi-pack featuring figures of the Lucas Yes-Men.

Doug Chiang, Rob Coleman, John Knoll, and McCallum
all posed with thoughtful smiles and "yes that joke is hilarious, George" head-nodding action.

Only if there could be an opposing multi-pack made up of people like Gary Kurtz and Marcia Lucas. They could include Commtech chips that allow them to explain in detail how they were the true geniuses behind Star Wars.

Don't forget mail-away Indiana the Alaskan Malamute.
