I know everyone thinks the first 12 are great - FB Luke, Vader, Chewie and so on. But what was the absolute shittest figure in your opinion? For me it's got to be from the ROTJ line. Possibly fish breath Ackbar or Boring fart Madine. With all the possible figures that could have been produced why on earth were those two made. They could have produced that Imperial Spy from ANH or Oola from Jabba's palace. Grinds my gears :x
 
Its got to be Madine or Ackbar but I do think Ackbar is more interesting than say Klaatu or Barada or Nikto or Weequay but maybe not. I suppose some of those guys were ok since they appeared around the Skiff scenes. 8)
 
I know what you mean. Ackbar was one of the first ROTJ line as well wasn't he? Madine though :roll: He didn't even have a gun!

Precisley. That has to give them SOME caché. And Klaatu, whist not that exciting, is a really well put together figure. But Anakin is just ****. Nothing good about IT whatsoever.
 
Oh yeh, Anakin! I noticed him today sat at the back of my collection being very, very boring :|
 
Oi Yak boy less of the Anakin bashing :) I like Anakin as a figure, even if his play value is poor he is supposed to a "force ghost" I also like Ackbar for me personally its going to have to be the 2nd Bespin guard its a totally pointless figure what did the second bring to the table the first didnt?
 
Imp Dig, the figure is bad enough but the gaps in the legs, disgraceful.

Could have been a better figure with some sort of material robe, especially considering I always though Imp Dig was a woman :lol:

:lol:
Sorry... no dice. Anakin is just awful. :lol:

Agreed with Bespin figures, them or Madine or Prune Face could run a close 2nd.
 
Anakin used to be one of my favourite figures LOL so did the Emperor but Im not sure I should be admitting that tho LOL. I do think that the Imp Did is just crap and maybe could take top spot for being TOTALLY sh*t LOL.
 
Every alien species...I repeat...every alien...is better then human!!!!

So what sucks most?? Anaking, Dignitary etc......

I played way more with my PruneFace, Weequay etc then with every Han or Luke I had .. ;)
 
It's got to be Anakin - **** , plain **** - no accessories and looks like my elderly neighbour who had a stroke a few years back.

Hate Madine also - that hair cut! - And another crap figure - Luke Jedi Knight... Only joking Mumbo :lol:
 
I don't know what the hate is with The Ewoks :D I think their awesome figs! I do agree with Anakin and Imp Dig being **** boring figs. But to me I don't like FX-7, 2-1B, Bespin Guard 2 (with his weird ass stance), emperor, Han Solo Carbonite (Looking crazy with the big neck :lol: ) just terrible!
 
love all the banter, personally its a no brainer, I got Anakin when I was a kid an am certain a just left it in the corner, at least you could get a stormy to kill ackbar or madine, wat use is a ghost? great question by the way!! now what would people say is the best figure? I went through phases as a kid( luke hoth my first figure, loved walrus, greedo, erg, never had a luke farmboy so ad prob say yoda my fave ever figure. loved the attention to detail(snake belt cloak stick)
 
I am in the pro-Anakin camp as well - I reckon it was quite a clever idea for a figure - although I do get were people are coming from with regards to playing with him :lol:

I have never been a lover of the Darth Vader figure - there is no war it should be the same size as Ben and Luke

Also, as a lad, I never saw the need for that many Leia's - original was OK and Poncho had cool accessories but there was no need for Bespin or Hoth at all
 
Imperial dig for me..somehow just doesn't fit, horrible colour, gender less
Just bollocks really
Even though we all have a **** one in mind, you can be sure it won't be omitted from a vintage run though :lol: my principles stop there :lol:
 
Rancor keeper......a fat, topless dude with a stick and unraveled balaclava,you wouldn't be allowed hand a kid a toy like him these days.....
 
No Han Stormie, Tarkin, Slave Leia, Vader with removable helmet, Rebel Trooper... instead we get Klaatu skiff guard, who bites the big one.
