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 two to three weeks of list taking I'll publish the results and we will move on to the next movie.  Continuing on down the road I am inviting one and all to turn in your Wishlists for the middle movie of the Original Trilogy, The Empire Strikes Back.  Hoth, Bespin, Dagobah, Bounty Hunters and Wampas fill this fan favorite full of great background and main characters.  Feel free to send in your lists via e-mail: spearson@jedidefender.com or post them here.

If you need help coming up with names check out the Official Sites Databank:   Episode IV (http://starwars.com/databank/ep5.html).  Also check out Red 6 (http://red6.tk/) for even more great charcters (and petition supporters) :P

Have fun and thanks for sending in your lists (remember to limit it to ten)!

Post by: Mikey D on May 6, 2003, 02:09 PM
Wow, ten for ESB is tough considering my love for droids and weird and wacky aliens.  My list is also based on the rumour that my #1 choice (Riekkan) is coming and we'll get R3-A2 in the Hoth 4 pack.

Anywho, here it goes:

1.  Major Bren Derlin, who knows everyone's name on Hoth
2.  Toryn Farr
3.  General Veers pre-Hoth invasion
4.  R-3PO with authentic "Thank the Maker" tatoo on his ass
5.  Ice Cream Maker Guy, just for you Scott ;)
6.  Cloud Car pilot but only if Hasbro releases something for him to fly (hint, hint Hasbro)
7.  Treva Horme, although I've never this alien in the movie this list would be mighty boring without her.
8.  Utris M'Toc, the Star Trek wannabe.  See #7 for comments
9.  non "Saturady Night Live" Lobot

Hmmm, looking at my list, I've only determined nine.  I know who I want, but since I'm too lazy to look up his name, I'll give you the actor's name.  Are you ready?  Why we don't have a figure of him yet, I have no idea.  I present you my #10 choice, the most obscure character played by a well known actor in the OT:

10.  Scott Bakula's Imperial.  That's right, the star of Quantum Leap and Necessary Roughness.  Its gold baby, I'm telling you!  Nobody would pass him up.  Get to work Hasbro.

Treva Horme for those who care can be spotted in ESB right before the most infamous charcter in the OT appears on Bespin.  As Lando rushes through the crowd after the evacuation call, a large alien is seen running the opposite way.

Thank you Asian Bootleggers and your OT DVD's!

Post by: Jesse James on May 6, 2003, 03:47 PM
Oh goodie, because this is a place that NEEDS resculpts!

The figure's I list are just what I want with their "dream" features, but either way I want the figure.  Hasbro may do SOME of the stuff listed.

1) Hoth Rebel Footsoldier (Fleet Trooper)...  White uniformed guys that we have a figure of.  Resculpt with 16 points of articulation (wrists, shoulders, biceps, elbows, knees, neck, waist, boot tops, hip/thighs).  Removeable helmet with 3 head variants (bearded, clean shaven brown hair, clean shaven blonde hair).  Functioning holster for RFT blaster as well as blaster rifle, backpack and macro binoculars.  I'd also give him a cloth scarf on his hat as well as removeable goggles.  :)

2) Imperial "Snow" Stormtrooper...  16 Points of articulation like above, functioning holster, maybe a removeable helmet with a generic impy head underneath?  Cloth skirt piece, and cloth face mask a must for poseability.  Comes with blaster rifle of course, and I'd throw in a lil explosive or grenade for them, just for fun.

3) Dagobah Luke Skywalker...  Uber-poseable, with at least 16 POA.  Give him his gear from the Saga X-Wing, and a WELL MADE cloth jacket that he can have on, but opened...  ALso a removeable belt/gun holster for when he puts it on to go in the cave...  Of course, his lightsabre as well.  One must, he MUST be able to stand on his hands, but still hold his weapons.

4) General Maximillian Veers...  Removeable hat, removeable body armor, removeable belt w/holster, removeable helmet with goggles, and blaster pistol.  16 points of articulation.  This guy will be the ULTIMATE Imperial officer figure.  He'll sell by the truckload just so people can make customs.  I guarantee no pegwarmer here!  Oh and give him a mini holo Vader to talk to. :)

5) Han Solo (Hoth Gear) ...  Give him a ton of articulation (16 points?) and a cloth hood that pulls down.  Removeable helmet, functioning holster, removeable goggles...  The new Hoth Han does not cut it in my book...  Nice sculpt, but bad action figure IMO.  I doubt my Hoth Han ever comes to fruition, but I'd like to see him some day by my own hand maybe.

6) Jeremy Bulloch Imperial Officer...  Just to have Bulloch as a figure, I'd love to have him as the blonde Impy on Bespin that hides behind Leia.  Removeable hat of course so we can make neat Boba Fett customs. :)

7) Lando Calrissian...  Cloth coat again, better poseability and more neutral pose.  Give him a stormie blaster and Bespin Gun or something...  Just give me a normal Bespin Lando that I can pose some.

8 ) Lobot...  For god's sake, do Lobot over...  Yeesh!  OOGLY figure, in desparate need of a resculpt.  

9) Hoth Rebel Technician...  Multiple points of articulation, and he comes with TWO hats (and a couple variant heads).  The first hat is the long brim "ballcap" type hat.  The second one is a soldiers cap...  2 figures in one I say!  Give him some tools too maybe?   They'll look great wranglin' your taun-taun, or fixing your X-Wing.

10) Yoda...  Poseable legs, cloth coat, belt, snake (orange and brown versions. :D ), gimer stick, cloth backpack that he fits into...  A great and needed figure, plus he will go VERY well with the aforementioned Dagobah Luke.

Post by: Scott on May 6, 2003, 04:01 PM
1. Cloud Car Pilot
2. Hoth Rebel Soldier (Echo Base troop garb) Both are no brainers that need to be updated from Vintage Figures
3. General Rieekan A troika of Rebel Generals is in order
4. Ice Cream Maker Guy 'nuff said
5. Death Star Trooper Resculpt Running to the Bathroom wasn't cool then.  I've boiled and popped some Imperial "Officers" and the old one, still not good enough
6. Hoth Rebel Officer (Major Derlin) Cliff Claven needs a Star Wars figure...again
7. General Veers With or without armor, the first one stinks
8. Admiral Ozzle  Great opportunity for a new tuniced officer that actually had some memorable lines
9. Hobbie or Zev or both ala the Running Change Imperial Officer, just throw in 4 or 5 helmets and boom, instant Rogue Squadron
10. Yoda/Luke Dagobah Resculpts  A 2 pack combo platter, throw in R2 and you have a great Screen Scene
Title: Re: Defender Wish Lists: Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back
Post by: Jeff on May 6, 2003, 04:17 PM
Here's my choices:

10.  Admiral Ozzel – “He is as clumsy as he is stupid”

9.  Captain Needa – “Apology accepted, Captain Needa” *urk*  :P

8.  Major Bren Derlin – Cheers denzien AND hoth good guy in one.

7.  Toryn Farr – We need more ladies in the SW universe and comm officer Farr is a good place to start!

6.  Cloud Car Pilot – maybe if they make the figure, they’ll have to finally make the darn vehicle!

5.  Zev Senesca with removable helmet – He rescued Han and Luke, and hey, Jek got a figure so it’s not impossible!

4.  Wes Janson with removable helmet – MORE rebel pilots please!  I’d love a good removable helmet, generic snowspeeder-pilot gear figure to use for snow-speeder pilot customs!

3.  “Generic Bespin Background character” – Hmmm... which one should I choose, so many running around the halls of Bespin.  If only there was one background character that stood out.  Maybe running with an appliance?  Hmmm... um... how about: Ice-Cream Maker Guy!  (great OCB, now you’ve got me wanting one too)  :D

2.  NEW Princess Leia in Bespin Gown – we need to replace that Leia-2pack version!

1.  NEW un-buff Dagobah Luke Skywalker w/cloth Yoda bag and crates.  It’d be nice if he came with a swamp base/stand that allows him to do hand-stands!

Yeah, I was wondering the same thing as Bespin_refugee when I saw your post Mikey...  No way Scott Bakula was in Empire.  I'm sure we'd have all heard about it (like with Cliff Claven)...

Or are you just totally goofin' with that pick?   :P
Title: Re: Defender Wish Lists: Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back
Post by: Mikey D on May 7, 2003, 07:35 AM
He was the officer who, after the Millenium Falcon grapple hooked to the Star Destroyer, said "There not on our scopes" or something to that affect.  I'm pretty sure that's the scene, but I haven't seen ESB is awhile, so I could be off a little.  He's sitting in the recessed commucations area and looks up to his commanding officer.

Scott, with your bootleg DVDs, would you care to take a look to confirm this for us? Thanks.
Title: Re: Defender Wish Lists: Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back
Post by: Mikey D on May 7, 2003, 07:49 AM
Well I found him.

Go to Scotts Red 6 link and look under Imperial Commanders.  His name is Commander Nement, complete with picture.

Although it doesn't say who played him, its obviously my main man Bakula.

I have heard this one before, not sure if it has ever been confirmed or not though, sure looks like him

Post by: Guttersnipe on May 7, 2003, 10:02 AM
Dang! I missed the last one.
Some good ideas people, some so good I will sign my name up for them too.

1) Ozzel
2) Veers
3) Treva Horme (never seen him before, but looks kinda cool)
4) Wiorkettle (as above)
5) Riekeen
6) Zev Senesca
7) Fried Solo with grilling dooberry.
8) Dagobah Luke
9) Dagobah Yoda
10) Delux Ugnaught (I came upon this idea when displaying my collection. The C-3P0 that came with Cloud City Chewbacca, looks cool with the ugnaught. So why not make a new ugnaught, pack him with a conveyor belt and droid parts then add an IG-72, done the same way as the C-3P0 was done then hey presto you have a nearly complete scene).

I better chime my butt in here before I miss out on the fun, like Brent often does...  ESB isn't nearly as exciting as the other flicks with a lot more aliens, Jedi, and various other interesting denizens of the SW universe, but oh well - here goes:

Guess that'll do it.  Honorable mention to Toryn Farr, Admiral Ozzel, and of course ICMG!  Sorry Scott, but I might've included him in my list, if not for all your damned baggy sweater banter!   :-*

Can't wait for the ROTJ lists!  Bring on Jabba's Palace!   8)

6.   Ice Cream Maker Guy with lots of articulation  ;)

1.  Major Bren Derlin
2.  General Veers
3.  Lobot resculpt
4.  R-3PO
5.  Admiral Ozzel
6.  Captain Needa
7.  General Rieekan
8.  Bespin gown Leia
9.  Deluxe Ugnaught
10. Black Bespin Guard


Okay, so we have General Carlist Rieekan and R-3PO (according to the Japanese catalog shots ) coming now, I guess I will replace them with Dagobah Luke and now I can finally jump on the icecream maker guy bandwagon as my last choice..

Well, now there are 4 from my original list that are being made (Rieekan, R-3PO, Bespin Leia [assuming Swami is correct], and Ozzel).  So, I will go with:

1.  Major Bren Derlin
2.  General Veers in Imperial uniform w/ snap-on armor
3.  Lobot resculpt
4.  Captain Needa
5.  Toryn Farr
6.  Zev Senesca - Rogue 2
7.  Dagobah Luke resculpt w/accesseries
8.  Non-buff Snowspeeder Luke resculpt
9.  Black Bespin Guard (Sgt. Edian)
10. Yoda w/backpack, & other accessories resculpt

I'm assuming/hoping the Medical Frigate Luke rumor is true because I would like to see that as well (besides, I only have 2 Lukes on my list!!!)   The Jeremy Bullock Imp. officer and E-3PO were also hard to leave off, as well as ICMG.   Sorry about that, OCB.   Hopefully the Dagobah Luke & Yoda will be made as well and I can add that back in as well as a super articulated Snowtrooper (if I don't chose to add Jeremy Bullock Imp. officer and E-3PO into the list).

My ESB list...  Let's see how I did here!

Guess that'll do it.  Honorable mention to Toryn Farr, Admiral Ozzel  8), and of course ICMG!

Wow.  Not too bad a year for the ESB figures!  8 for 13 on the figures I mentioned.  Man, really not too much left from this movie now.  Guess I can add a Snowspeeder Pilot Wedge/Luke/Zev in there now, but that about covers it, I think.  Cool.  Now let's move back to ANH and do some damned Cantina aliens!   >:(

1. Cloud Car Pilot
2. Hoth Rebel Soldier (Echo Base troop garb) Both are no brainers that need to be updated from Vintage Figures
3. General Rieekan A troika of Rebel Generals is in order
4. Ice Cream Maker Guy 'nuff said
5. Death Star Trooper Resculpt Running to the Bathroom wasn't cool then.  I've boiled and popped some Imperial "Officers" and the old one, still not good enough
6. Hoth Rebel Officer (Major Derlin) Cliff Claven needs a Star Wars figure...again
7. General Veers With or without armor, the first one stinks
8. Admiral Ozzle  Great opportunity for a new tuniced officer that actually had some memorable lines
9. Hobbie or Zev or both ala the Running Change Imperial Officer, just throw in 4 or 5 helmets and boom, instant Rogue Squadron
10. Yoda/Luke Dagobah Resculpts  A 2 pack combo platter, throw in R2 and you have a great Screen Scene
Here's my latest List

The Empire Strikes Back
1. Hoth Rebel Soldier (Echo Base troop garb)
2. Ice Cream Maker Guy
3. Death Star Trooper Resculpt
4. General Veers
5. Hobbie or Zev
6. Torryn Farr
7. White Bespin Guard
8. Major Bren Derlin
9. Luke Medical Frigate
10. Leia Medical Frigate

No changes to mine, but ESB doesn't have a lot of really solid or super necessary choices left at this point...

I sort of agree, I'd like an Echo Base trooper, he's a Vintage Redo and same goes for Cliffy but I'm wondering if there are rights issues with him.  I would like the Bespin Frozen Dairy Chef though.  And if they want to do Main Character Variants...Luke and Leia Medical Frigate would be keen in my book

General Veers seems to be mucho requested and I'd buy one as Imperial Officers are always welcome

Snowspeeder Pilots, Torryn Farr,

Not sure if I can come up with 10 or not, although there are always some further background characters to explore.  Otherwise, not too much left from the main ones really...wouldn't mind seeing a few resculpts though, those POTF2 figs just don't hold up in some cases.

1. Zuckuss (resculpt) - missed the 1st version
2. 4-LOM (resculpt) - ditto #1
3. Luke Snowspeeder (resculpt)
4. General Veers
5. Luke/Leia Medical Frigate
6. Lando (smuggler's gear)
7. White Bespin Guard
8. Hoth Rebel Trooper
9. ICMG (for Scott) :)
10......

Not sure, a few choices.  I wouldn't mind seeing a fig like Torryn Farr or Major Bren Derlin, but like Scott said, it might be a likeness rights issue with the latter.  Some of the ones I wanted the most (resculpts) have been taken care of lately with Dagobah Luke, Yoda, R2, etc.  Although I didn't mind the Saga Hoth Han, I wouldn't mind seeing that figure redone...in a more neutral, articulated, vOTC style Han figure...but I guess we could say that for a lot of figures ;).  As I start putting these newer figs on display, it just seems like the vast majority of POTF2 figures pale in comparison...and there are a number of resculpts that I wouldn't mind.  Sure, some still look ok, but when you look at figures like vOTC Han, Stormtrooper, Chewie, etc....you just know they could do so much better.

Wow, ten for ESB is tough considering my love for droids and weird and wacky aliens.  My list is also based on the rumour that my #1 choice (Riekkan) is coming and we'll get R3-A2 in the Hoth 4 pack.

Anywho, here it goes:

1.  Major Bren Derlin, who knows everyone's name on Hoth
2.  Toryn Farr
3.  General Veers pre-Hoth invasion
4.  R-3PO with authentic "Thank the Maker" tatoo on his ass
5.  Ice Cream Maker Guy, just for you Scott ;)
6.  Cloud Car pilot but only if Hasbro releases something for him to fly (hint, hint Hasbro)
7.  Treva Horme, although I've never this alien in the movie this list would be mighty boring without her.
8.  Utris M'Toc, the Star Trek wannabe.  See #7 for comments
9.  non "Saturady Night Live" Lobot

Hmmm, looking at my list, I've only determined nine.  I know who I want, but since I'm too lazy to look up his name, I'll give you the actor's name.  Are you ready?  Why we don't have a figure of him yet, I have no idea.  I present you my #10 choice, the most obscure character played by a well known actor in the OT:

10.  Scott Bakula's Imperial.  That's right, the star of Quantum Leap and Necessary Roughness.  Its gold baby, I'm telling you!  Nobody would pass him up.  Get to work Hasbro.


Didn't get the "Thank the Maker" ass tatoo or a Cloud Car to fly.  And the Scott Bakula figure won't be coming, because it ain't him :(

Here's my choices:

10.  Admiral Ozzel
9.  Captain Needa
8.  Major Bren Derlin
7.  Toryn Farr
6.  Cloud Car Pilot
5.  Zev Senesca with removable helmet
4.  Wes Janson with removable helmet
3.  Ice-Cream Maker Guy!  (great OCB, now you’ve got me wanting one too)  :D
2.  NEW Princess Leia in Bespin Gown
1.  NEW un-buff Dagobah Luke Skywalker w/cloth Yoda bag and crates.  It’d be nice if he came with a swamp base/stand that allows him to do hand-stands!


Jeff

Hmmm... 4/10 not too shabby!  Actually, it looks like Hasbro read my list because I specifically asked for Handstanding Luke!   :P
