Poll is here: http://www.wizarduniverse.com/magazines/toyfare/TF20060313-tf_poll.cfm

who would people want to see as a figure? Not that i still collect, but I'd prefer someone from the movies (OT or PT) vs a video game or book character. though some of the characters from the books/games would be cool to see.

I'm a OT fan only so of course I'm gonna go with Luke. Though Padme's funeral dress was lovely and anything that remindes me of her death and the end to the PT is always welcome on my action figure shelf.

I really want to see Hasbro make the triple breasted dancer from Jabba's palace. It's long overdue!

Where were you in '77?

I was about to vote for Kyle Katarn, but:

a) He's already had an action figure (I have the ancient Star Wars Insider issues to prove it), and

b) C'mon, it's the Ice Cream Machine Man!!!!!

I think I'll have to go with the Solo children. Any one of them.

they had a cantina barkeep figure

Wuher i think his name is, something like that.

Ill see if i can find a picture. If not ill dig mine out next time im at the parents and take a picture of it. it was a fan club exclusive (well had to be ordered through the fan club store anyway)

*edit* found one, also, i believe it was a fan club exclusive, while searching saw a post on tf.net that said they found one in the store and something about it being a repack. though im 99.9% sure that when it was first released it was fan club and thats where i got mine. though i may have got it a TRU since i was working there and the only figure i had a hard time finding was Vader with removable helmet (one per box, i think the store got like 5 in total while i was there) and the death star trooper.

anyway, heres the pic

Hmm. I never had a hard time finding Vader with removable helmet back in the day.

Really? I know for a fact that there was only one per case. I guess the store I was at just had bad luck cause we got very few of those cases. The other thing was we had a few collectors working there, one guy on the crew the unloaded trucks, so a lot of the figures never actually hit the shelfs, at least not at the first shipment. I got mine cause one of my friends put one aside. I was supposed to trade with him for a death star trooper but we never were able to make the trade, i missed that one for some reason, think it was similar to the vader situation. Finally got one which completed my pre episode 2 collection (got the first wave of those figures but thats basically when i stopped, did wanna get just the first wave of episode 3 though, never did)

Well, to be honest, since I wasn't really looking it for it so much after I found one, and since I didn't know it existed before I found it, I might be wrong in saying that. But I do remember that, in '95, Princess Leia seemed pretty rare, as it took me months to find a store that had her, and I don't have that stigma attached to the Vader.
