Defender Wishlists 2013: The Empire Strikes Back
« on: June 27, 2013, 09:28 AM »


For the last couple of years we ran an informal poll with your 10 most wanted characters from the current Star Wars Films.  Continuing the tradition and trying to finish up before C6, I thought it would be a good time to revisit those lists. Here's how it works: You send your Wish List for 10[/i] 3 3/4" Figures to me or post them here, be it new figures, resculpts or even re-releases and I'll tally the votes.  After four weeks of list taking I'll publish the results and we will move on to the next movie.  Fan favorite The Empire Strikes Back is currently on deck.   If you need help coming up with names check out the Official Sites Databank:  Episode V.  Have fun and thanks for sending in your lists (remember to limit it to ten)!

In no particular order:
1. Dagobah Yoda (w/ separate vader/luke helmet head)
2. Dagobah Luke (jedi training)
3. Adm. Ozzell (w/alt force-choked head)
4. Gen. Veers
5. Capt./Adm. Piett
6. Rogue Two (with alt/bloody nose head)
7. Han Solo (regular outfit on Falcon/Bespin - not post torture)
8. B-a-D C-3p0 (Bespin blaster effect)
9. Boba Fett (re-release)
10. Rebel Echo base staff: Gen. Riekeen, 'John Ratzenburger' rebel, Ion Control chick or generic Hoth rebel soldiers.

And although not figures but NEW playsets: Hoth Echo Base control room, Hoth Hanger, Vaders' SD bridge set w/ private chamber (a la 500th vader); new Dagobah and Bespin playsets.

We can dream, right?

1 ) SA Lando (with removable cape)
2 ) Hoth Rebel Hangar Technician/Flight Mechanic/Whatever
3 ) Lt. Sheckill (Jeremy Bulloch Imperial)
4 ) Wedge Antilles, Snowspeeder Pilot
5 ) Hoth Luke (TVC Figure eats it IMO)
6 ) Human/Hunchback Ugnaught
7 ) Dagobah Luke Skywalker Resculpt (Seriously this one needs better articulation)
8 ) Torryn Farr
9 ) Hoth Rebel Scout (Hoth Rebel Soldier w/Ball Jointed Hips to ride a taun-taun)
10)  Treva Horme

Some of these guys are rumored...  So I suspect some changes.
Was I the only one tempted to put Hoth Luke back on the list?  I don't consider the Vintage figure nearly adequate.  Too tall, bulky goofy hands, meh headscuplt and terrible scarf/goggle feature.  Two heads would've been a better option on that one
