Post by: Scott on December 7, 2004, 01:16 PM
And man oh man...its hard to wittle the list down to 10...but here's mine:

1. Chief Chirpa/Lumat
2. Klaatu Jabba's Palace
3. Hermi Odle
4. Yarna D'al Gargan
5. Ice Cream Maker Guy
6. Major Bren Derlin
7. Hem Dazon
8. CZ-3
9. R5-D4
10. Bom Vimdin
Title: Re: Defender Wish Lists 2004: Original Trilogy Tournament of Champions
Post by: Jeff on December 7, 2004, 02:07 PM
Here are my ultimate 10:

#1. Hem Dazon (Arcona) - come on!  We get EU Booger-man, but NOT an Arcona?  This farce needs to end, and we need an Arcona NOW.

#2 R5-D4 - A resculpt that I'd gladly buy.  That missile launching nightmare must be atoned for...

#3 Bom Vimdin (Advose) - Any Cantina Alien is a good choice by me.

#4 Owen Lars - A nice non-crappy Owen to go with Beru would be sweet and make up for the finger-pointin' Cinema Scene wreck.

#5 Ice Cream Maker Guy - The only ESB to make the list.  Shows off how sucky the ESB list of 10 was I guess...  :P

#6 Chief Chirpa/Lumat - I'd rather have Wumpus the Ewok, but this is a good start...

#7 Romba/Warok - Again, I'd rather have Wumpus the Ewok, but this is a good start...

#8 Hermi Odle - Ephant Mon needs a ridiculously over-sized figure to join him in Jaba's Palace.

#9 Yarna D'al Gargan - Who wouldn't want this fat, creepy dancer?   :-\

#10 Luke Skywalker (Endor) - We need the vOTC version of Jedi Luke with Endor Poncho and helmet!

Post by: JediMAC on December 7, 2004, 03:31 PM
Buncha pansy-ass Ewok lovers...   ::)

OK, here's my Top Gun list of most needed figures still - the best of the best (hesitantly refraining from the ones that we just need resculpts of)...

  1. Hem Dazon (Arcona) - without a freakin' doubt, this guy's Numero Uno! 
  2. Yarna D'al Gargan - can't go wrong with 3 sets of knockers!
  3. Hermi Odle
  4. Cz-3
  5. Bom Vimdin
  6. Tonnika Sisters 2-pack
  7. Chief Chirpa/Lumat
  8. Sim Aloo
  9. Wioslea
10. Seargent Doallyn

Yep, that should do it!  Now make it happen Hasbro.  We've waited far too long for these suckers!

Post by: JesseVader08 on December 7, 2004, 09:25 PM
My priorities are focused on figures that have never been sculpted in the modern era (or ever, for that matter).  In no particular order:

Fringe:
1. Hem Dazon
2. Bom Vimdin
3. Tonnika Sisters (I know it'll never happen, but a guy's gotta hope)
4. ICMG (well obviously he had to be on the list!)

Imperials:
5. General Tagge
6. Captain Needa
7. Moff Jerjerrod
8. General Veers (a resculpt, but a badly needed one)

Rebels:
9. Major Bren Derlin
10. Lando Smuggler (the way Lando was meant to look, he's not a general at heart!)

8. Klaatu Palace
9. Luke Medical Frigate
10. Chief Chirpa/Lumat
Title: Re: Defender Wish Lists 2004: Original Trilogy Tournament of Champions
Post by: Jesse James on December 7, 2004, 11:47 PM
My list is in no particular order, and based on my favorite characters as well as trying to maintain a mix of obscure aliens, army building fodder, and needed resculpts.

1)  Hermi Odle...  I listed him #1 because he's probably the #1 alien figure I want made.  I want him to come with apples too.  Does anyone else want the apple basket with him?  I just find this fecal-looking feind to be all the more amusing when he's eating apples.  I dunno.

2) Grand Moff Tarkin Resculpt...  While Bib Fortuna and R5-D4 were in the running, I simply don't care for the Bib character that much and R5-D4 I can make myself if i tried, so I'm voting GM Tarkin as the most needed resculpt.  GOOD articulation for neutral poses and those in moments of contemplation. 

3)  Romba/Warok...  If there's one thing Endor needs, it's more Ewoks...  Namely warriors.  Since I feel that painting up a chief Chirpa would make me happy for his figure, then I want Romba/Warok in a warrior 2-pack.  If Hasbro were wise they'd articulate them as well as Teebo and re-release them painted as other warriors (generic) with different weapons and/or hoods.  People may hate Ewoks, but I think they'd sell to the army building crowd to more than off-set any anti-ewok bias.

4)  General Veers...  Removable armor, removable helmet, removable kepi hat, remvable belt/holster, and a holo Vader.  This Veers should be the ultimate Imperial Officer in sculpt, accessories, and I think he should have some good articulation too.  Go all out on this one!  Finally do one of the only Officers Vader didn't kill someactual Justice Hasbro!

5)  Bom Vimdin...  This is THE Cantina alien that I want now that Dannik Jerricho is made.  I like Hem Dazon too, but Bom's a freakish design I've always liked.  Plus his studded tunic thing is freaky too.  Make him as nice as the Cantina wave guys and I'm happy as a clam.

6)  Hem Dazon...  I pick Hem Dazon because he's such an iconic alien.  One of the best designs, the first one you see in the entire sequence, and even if he wasn't so blatantly camera hogging I think he'd still be a memorable and popular choice.  Like Bom, I think Hem should be just as nice as all the Cantina wave figures coming out.

7) Luke Endor...  Soft goods poncho, removable helmet, softgoods (removable) vest underneath, removable belt (with saber hilt that hooks to it).  This should be the ultimate Endor Luke, no holds barred.  Super Articulated to the max.  Perfection for Luke Skywalker.

8 ) Sgt. Doallyn...  If the uniforms are similar enough, I vote for a running change where half are in the white skiff duds and half in the black palace duds.  Articulated as nicely as the Cantina wave...  If Hasbro wanted to get funky, a removable helmet with EU accurate likeness underneath would be sorta neat.  This guy's behind Hermi as one of my favorite Palace freaks.  His voice is too funny, and he got punked...  twice!

9)  CZ-3...  Gotta have one droid, and since I do, I'm picking CZ-3.  The clown droid's been overlooked far too long.  He's so blatantly noticeable all over Tatooine that you really just have to have one in figure form already.  If they included a cheap molded droid accessory with him like Treadwell that came with Beru, that would rock.  Like maybe doing the Mining droid as a 1 or 2 piece accessory to pack in with him.  Seems simple enough to me!

10) Bren Derlin...  As much as I was torn between Torryn Far or Cliff here, I went with Cliff.  I wanted an army builder of sorts on the list, and as a somewhat generic officer for Hoth I decided Bren was best.  Super Articulation is warranted since the body would be hot customizing fodder...  I'd dig a removable hat/goggles too, and a working holster w/blaster pistol for him.  It'd be neat having the full Cliff Claven headsculpt for customizing him in a regular Fleet Uniform, and it would make the figure just a great customizing piece, army builder, and a good figure that many seem to want.

R5 was the only resculpt I allowed myself from the modern era.

Close, but no cigar:
Hem Dazon (Arcona) - I'm afraid of what Hasbro would come up with for a body
General Tagge - I like the Imperials, what can I say?
Captain Needa - see above
Torryn Farr - would be awesome with another piece (with a different screen) like with Rieekan or one where she is seated.
Klaatu (Palace)
Sim Aloo (very hard to leave off)

When this is broken down like it is, I see a lot more correlation among fan opinion.  Very interesting.  I know bracketing items downward like this is popular among many companies (including toy), so it's pretty interesting watching the process like this.
Title: Re: Defender Wish Lists 2004: Original Trilogy Tournament of Champions
Post by: Scott on December 11, 2004, 04:11 PM
It is interesting that some of these figures are on almost everyone's list.  And for the most part all of them really have no involvement in the movie any more (outside of resculpts) except for background filler.  Its a sign that pretty much everything major has been made, everything new from now on is pretty much gravy

I noticed most people voting for Hem Dazon, which I almost did.   Like I noted in my vote, I would be very concerned with Hasbro's conception of his body from the neck down.   Is there any concept art anywhere or a Dicipher card with the rest of the body?
Title: Re: Defender Wish Lists 2004: Original Trilogy Tournament of Champions
Post by: Scott on December 15, 2004, 10:25 PM
I believe Hem was added post-production in California so he was designed after the fact.  I think all there is as far as concept art is what West End Games did back in the early 90's

There's also a pic of the Arconas (Hem's species) in The Essential Guide to Alien Species.  Very similar to what Scott posted (and probably where the artist caught his info).  I'd be happy with that body.
Title: Re: Defender Wish Lists 2004: Original Trilogy Tournament of Champions
Post by: obi-dad on December 16, 2004, 04:42 PM
I would be quite happy with that if Hasbro based the figure on that.   Maybe I should go back and rethink my voting...   Nah...  Hem will make it anyway.

Picking 10 out of all those is tough, especially when we want to include some resculpts that are needed desperately, so I'm not going to count in any resculpts and Imp. Officers with the faith that Hasbro already has some of them on the drawing board by popular demand (i.e. Veers, Tarkin, Tagge, R5-D4, Bib Fortuna, etc)...

1) Torryn Farr
2) Cz-3
3) Tonnika Sisters Two Pack
4) Major Bren Derlin
5) Sergeant Doallyn
6) Luke Skywalker (Endor) *note: MUST have removable helmet & poncho gear!
7) Bom Vimdin (Advose)
8) Hem Dazon (Arcona
9) Chief Chirpa/Lumat
10) Ice Cream Maker Guy

Now, I wonder when Hasbro will answer our call....

25. Moff Jerjerrod
26. General Tagge
27. Bespin Guard
28. Captain Needa
29. Princess Leia (Frigate)
30. Bib Fortuna

I guess its no secret that most of us here prefer never before done figures and beyond that...aliens and droids outrank the humans.  This final voting totally shows that

Also note the poor showing of ESB figures which reflects the sentiment that not much else needs to be done from ESB

Our lists last time got about 40% of the figures done, lets hope we see 15 of these at Comic Con next year :)

Also scoring high but not quite high enough were a number of Vintage Updates and Resculpts.  All of which seem to be very welcome after many years of hearing bitching about resculpts :P

Welp, not ALL the figures I want of course, but many nonetheless.

I'd say Hem, Hermi, Bom, and Veers all are figures I'd love to see...  Veers especially if he's got the removable armor/helmet, belt, and officer's cap.  Excellent.

While I like the list, I think this is a list of figures that would rock if mixed in with a variety of other "types".  Army builders namely, but resculpts of main characters as well have their place I think... 

It's good, and I think all of the top 10 have a strong chance at plastic between 2005 and 2006.  :)

With the Lego SW game coming out, I want a game based on vintage SW figs.

IT be cheesy as all get out, but you could pick from being any of the original 12 figs, and you start from behind the bed, the goal being to ultimately get all the figures into sealed cases and packed away in the closet.  All the while fending off the dog, your big brother who likes to attach firecrackers to you, falling into the sand pit in the backyard, avoiding being sold at flea markets, and you have to try to not  lose your weapons in the sweeper.  You could run through all the vintage playsets as you go around the various levels  house/store/etc.  freeing the other 97 vintage  figures as you go with Yak-face an Snaggletooth being the last 2 you have to find and save.  Maybe you could be fighting off other toy lines like G.I. Joe, transformers, and for the very last "Boss" you have to fight off the Purple pieman!

As a bonus level you have to run back and forth on a desk and dodge rubber bands being shot at you from your little brother.

How's that?  ;^)

This is about as good a place as any to post this...

I handed over to Hasbro a copy of the JD Top Ten Polls for each of the movies, as well as this poll for the "best of the best" top ten request list.

They said they'd take that info home, so maybe, just maybe, we will have had a hand in helping them to plan out 2006/2007?   ;)
