What if?

[Bollux]

What if Kenner had made just one more figure during the POTF run?

What would you have liked it to be?

Personally as a kid I would have loved Han-Stormtrooper, Luke just looked so helpless by himself!

 

[TWOFOOT]

As it would of been a potf figure i would of liked to see Biggs or uncle owen.

 

[scroggs]

Should of been Tarkin, can't believe they never did a tarkin figure anyway, and yet did figures like imperial dignitary and lobot :?

 

[mash]

Maybe Dr evazan, garindan, Han stormtrooper would have been a good one, also wedge antilles, biggs darklighter and a sandtrooper??.

mash

 

[inzaman]

I would have liked a Han Storm Trooper or Sand Trooper; two more figures for yellow limbs though. A wedge would also have been nice.

bespin luke with removable hand 8)

You could make one of those though, a hacksaw and a pin :lol:

Another one i would have liked would have been a Rebel Trooper from Star Wars.

If I won the lottery, I would nuy the rights to make vintage figures off Hasbro, because the short sighted ******s never will again

 

[boba frett]

It really is incredible how Tarkin was never produced considering how a few minor cantina characters were made in the first 20.

Does anyone know if Kenner made any prototypes of Tarkin?

 

[roundster]

It has to be Darth with removable helmet from end of Jedi. 8)
Had a friend who told me he had one, but his mum was keeping it under the bed! Being 10 years old I fell for it!! :lol:

 

[kilroy]

tarkin came up much later in Power of The Force series didnt he?
well....the new series of action figures has pretty plenty new imperial officers.....

anyone into imperials???
cheers.........

 

[Bollux]

Tarkin wasnt made until the modern figures.

 

[bertie_big_bollocks]

Here's why -

Kenner were desperate to get sales up in 1985-86 but LFL vetoed a bunch of their ideas (namely producing toys that took the story way beyond the Battle of Endor).

Tarkin was, at this late stage, proposed - but never made. Interest was dying off and Kenner cut their losses and moved on.

There's some cool "what-ifs" in this employee presentation - and a few horrific *****-piles that we should be grateful never happened...

Here's a link to the Toys R Gus section:

You can make one from a Hammerhead and a Squidhead with 4-Lom's bib!! Is his head made out of the US trash compactor monster?

 

[roundster]

Just read the note at the bottom and the head is Squid heads on it's side/back!!

 

[inzaman]

Mongo Beefhead!!!!

[spoons]

I wondered who the hell mongo was so i googled him and found this custom job on another forum

Looking at the vintage Leia's produced during the 80's I can't imagine they could have made her sexy!! The Leia Hoth in a bikini is a scary thought
