Way back when the 3 gunner stations were made, a fourth, Wedge, was rumored to be made.  Does anyone know how far this went?  Was a prototype made?  I seem to remember seeing one years ago but cannot remember.  Anyone?

If anyone out there can hook me up with these, it would be much appreciated.  I need one set, although 2 would be preferable.  Thanks in advance!

I was just emailed a survey from Hasbro regarding the Jedi Points.  I am sure most everyone who is a member got one. It looks like they have come to realize that the auction does not hold alot of positive feedback and they may be rethinking another use for the points.  Thoughts?

I am just looking for feedback from anyone who has bought this.  Thanks!

As many of you have reported, Dark Horizons posted the following:

"One of my pals at ILM told me a few days back that another trilogy 'might' happen. This is the sequel trilogy that Lucas said he'd never do. It's very very early days yet, but apparently there is some talk, even to the point of Mr Spielberg - who was interested in doing 'Clones' at one point - stepping in for Lucas, who may want to write, but probably won't want to direct. If Lucas doesn't they'll probably work out a deal for say Frank Darabont to pen (ala the current "Indiana Jones IV" arrangement). This one would be the three films following Return of the Jedi, Han Solo, Skywalker, post-Darth etc. How hard of a time are they going to have on their hands getting some of those original players! ha ha! finally a fitting use for CGI hey? The deal is everyone wants the sequels, except Lucas, who is apparently exhausted [Personally I'd say studio pressure]. If Spielberg directs, it could be ok. Better than those terrible prequel movies".
Our thoughts? Well, there have been rumors about a sequel trilogy for as long as there's been Star Wars. However, we have yet to hear any rumblings on this. Lucas has also publicly stated that he's done with Star Wars after Episode III. He wants to move on to other projects. Plus, there's no way they're going to be able to get Harrison Ford to play Han Solo again without generous sums of cash and giving him free reign over his character.

However....

If Dark Horizons says their source is reliable, we're inclined to believe them. Plus it seems crazy to let a multi-million dollar franchise fizzle and die after Episode III. The story still has life in it and can still generate money. Plus there are probably a long line of excellent writers and directors who would love to play in a galaxy far, far away that Lucas wouldn't have to get that involved with. After all, he's allowing the Clone Wars cartoons to play in the universe without him and he seems to be pleased with the results. The same goes with the Star Wars fan films.

Anyway, don't put too much stock in this rumor yet, but don't flush it away either. After all, Lucas has been known to change his mind...from time to time. (Did Greedo shoot first?!?)

If anyone out there can hook me up with any of the following, I will gladly pay over cost for your troubles.

Need Green, Blue and Yellow only.  Thanks in advance

This whole auction thing just ticked me off to no end so I sold them on ebay. A few months back I thought I may of had a chance, but one day into the auctions proved me wrong. How much did I get?  I sold 8500 for $150.  In return I bought myself a Sacul and will be buying a Toy Fair Vader in a week.  My problems are all solved Its amazing that people are shelling out so much cash for these.  So anyone out there with limited points can get something for them and can buy something immediately they need, versus waiting on an auction that you will probably lose.

Why has Hasbro not taken into consideration any of these figs for army building?  I would love a tech officer or the one that was rumored in the next accessory packs.  Also the different uniformed officers (tan, green) that are shown at the closing ceremony of ANH.  Anyone else want these?
