Yeah, I think it nicely sums up how dumb the galaxy shrinkage is.

Lets think about some real issues why did Vader want to stay on the dark side after Padmai died? and why did he not just kill Darth sidius after she died i mean his only reason to join was her so what was his reason for stickin with it

Magister Pontifex MaximusThe darkside is covered in MSG.
Once Vader got a taste he just could stop.

I am ready for the trials!A little politeness goes a long way around here. The opposite is the path to the ban side.
As for Anakin/Vader, he's betrayed and slaughtered friends, colleagues, and little kids. Essentially destroying his entire "family". There's nothing left for him to return to, no reason to abandon the dark side. For better or worse, he owes Palpatine for saving him from dying a lonely pathetic death on Mustafar.
It's a sick twisted relationship, but it's all Vader has got.
It's not until he encounters his son that he begins to sway from the dark side.

Well if you take ROTS as a reference, one gets stupid when turns to the dark side. It is not like Anakin screwed up and is trying to save his skin when he knew all too well he was tricked (hell even Sidious himself admitted to him that he is the Sith Lord they are looking for). Instead he becomes stupid and screams "From my point of view, the Jedi are evil".
Prequel Trilogy was supposed to be a story about a good man turning bad. In reality, it is a story about how a complete jerk (PT Anakin) turned into one of the best characters in film history (OT Vader)

He does not. But maybe you could write him a story.

Advanced Padawan LearnerI'm scanning the book "Krieg der Sterne - Offizielle Film-Dokumentation" which is the german version of a book called "The Star Wars Album" released in 1977. I'm about to rebuild it as a pdf in the best quality possible. I figured that both books had the same layout, so I thought I could upload the textless pages for anyone who wants to rebuild it in another language. While I was looking for some pictures of the book in google's image search, I found out that the english/american version has 80 pages, while the german only has 68 pages. There are several pages that didn't make it into the german version. Then I found a spanish version, "La Guerra de las Galaxias", which had a slightly different layout, but even some pages that the american version hadn't.
Anyone here who has a scan of the spanish version?
(It seems that there two different covers availabe)

I'd like to think he was prone to seizures that cause him to drop abruptly, hence the helmet.

These are amazing. I bought my girlfriend one of the Darth Maul ones, and I just had to buy another to keep mint. I have never done that in my entire life before, but these figures are just fantastic and worth it.

I am ready for the trials!Nice, but it seems strange for Hasbro to come out with a new line incompatible with the regular sized figures at this point. They bailed on the 12 inch figures after ROTS and the high end companies like Sideshow took over.
How articulated are they?
Wolfman
This user is offline.
Very articulate. Here's Luke Bespin from wave 3 which shows a lot of the movable parts.
Wave 1 (now) Luke Skywalker X-Wing Pilot, Sandtrooper, R2-D2, Darth Maul.
Wave 2 (December ?) Han Solo, Princess Leia Slave Girl, Boba Fett, Greedo.
Wave 3 (2014) Stormtrooper, Luke Skywalker Bespin, Obi-Wan Kenobi Episode III.
I was just going to collect Original Trilogy figures, but Darth Maul looks really good so I'm gonna have to go with him as well at some point.
The Sandtrooper out of the box and looking freaking awesome !

Joliet JakeBespin Luke looks like a nice figure, but he looks sad.
... And they had 'The Empire Strikes Back', the fifth of the four Star Wars films. He is fucking with us numerically, isn't he! "Children, count up to ten." "Four, five, six, one, two, three, ten". No, it goes, four, five, six, one, two, three… No, it goes: four, five, six. One... Two and three have not been made." "Two and three have not been made! What should they be?" "What should they be? We do not know. All we know is that there will be a big floppy character in it that goes, squawk squawk squawk... who needs a punch up the bracket!"

I am ready for the trials!Does Luke's hand come off, and is the trooper helmet removable?
Deviant fans of all ages will no doubt fight over the slave leia. ;)

The helmet is not removable on the Sandtrooper. Luke's hand is almost surely to be removable. Figures so far have differing interchangable parts such as heads and weapons.
