One figure to decide it all......

[Dublinjeff]

So, if you had to decide on one figure from the Original series of SW figures, forget focuses, bias etc, that defines the Star Wars action figure world, which would it be?
For me it has to Darth Vader.....a mint loose Vader figure with his Shiny cape, cool chest plate and Red Saber epitomises the whole Star Wars genre. Not to mention he was taller than the other figures....
I just think regardless of being a collector, anyone who sees the figure can immediately identify with the film series and the toys it produced?
Anyway, just interested in what people reckon.....

Thought on this and most first 12 easily shout SW....but got to agree Vader is the one.....Dark V Light...the villain has to be super bad...where as the good guy always has to be an Everyman who calls upon the general good in all to defeat evil

So Vader for me :wink:

Vader is the ultimate reminder of star wars but if I was going for a single figure it would have to be Fett. He was the Buzz Lightyear of his day, with everything a kid wanted. He could fly, shoot darts from his wrist, the armour was cool and knowone knew what he looked like under that helmet.

 

[Frunkstar]

Pin Head Han for me all the way, he epitomized everything cool about the first film & for me was everything I wanted to grow up to be at the tender age of 7 :lol: he was a smuggler worked outside of the law was hip with the chicks had the coolest side kick & did not give a sod about shooting up anything in sight, also my mostest played with figure by a long shot when I first got in to SW

 

[browny]

Luke bespin for me,super cool and the first Luke you could proper play with,nine if that hole in the arm bollocks!

 

[JuniorChubb]

Disregarding my obvious bias I am unable to make a decision...

I can narrow it down to 3 or 4 but thats not in the rules so I am not going to play :lol:

Great thread Jeff and I have to agree on Vader being the one, I picked him as my focus figure, just need him on an empire card!

Well spotted Iain, My god everyone on here seems to have gone through that Vader

 

[Dublinjeff]

[timbo72]

It's hard as I love the first 12 figures...torn between him and vader.

 

[jambobbyb]

Couldn't agree more TFB the first 12 make up 90% of my small collection, they are for me personally the best 12.

 

[Michael Sith]

Strange as I am new to " really" trying to collect, rather than running around buying anything SW. I have been drawn towards first 12 as a focus ( with the first 12 mail away stand)

First 12 epitomise SW and it's really hard to choose, but for a stand back unbiased, I would think it would always be Vader cool as F** k 8) hard as nuts...and immediately identifiable with the movie

Oh and he had the best weapon :!:

Luke Stormy for me :mrgreen:
