Unless I need the figure I will pass on the gold coin collection

Wrote this tonight, based on an idea that wormed its way into my thoughts while I was trying to sleep. Figured some of you Republic Commando fans might enjoy it.

Luke/Mara comic 2-pack. Unfortunately, not the Mara-green lightsaber version, but I'm still looking!

My store has the 2 pack with the purple light saber

Luke/Mara comic 2-pack. Unfortunately, not the Mara-green lightsaber version, but I'm still looking!

I've seen many of those two-packs and not a single green blade Mara.

I got Darth Revan, Darth Malak, Pre-Cyborg Grievous, McQ Starkiller Hero, General McQuarrie, McQ Concept Snowtrooper, and McQ Vader.

I was surprised that Darth Malak's mask came off. It shows a quite grotesque half chin battle damage! Darth Revan is sweet, and the cloak and hood are removable...

I think the Concept Snowtrooper is my favorite Concept so far. He is just so cool, although I feel like he should come with a lightsaber since practically every other McQ figure came with one.

So if Starkiller is supposed to be early ideas for Luke, then the goggled McQuarrie concept dude fighting Vader (the toy was the Celebration exclusive) was supposed to he Han? I thought he was also Luke... More than one concept of him, I take it.

BTW, I do love the McQuarrie concepts. Were those ever collected in book form? And does anybody have the old Power of the Force, Concept Speeder Bike, and Rebel Commando...and the Concept Snowspeeder and pilot??? I'm surprised these are not as popular as the 30th McQ Concept Collection is. I know they are not as well sculpted, or articulated, but it is still concept stuff.

Just talking now, sorry.

I wish it didn't - unless he's changed from the pictures we've seen, making it removable forced them to oversize it, making him look (more) ridiculous.

And does anybody have the old Power of the Force, Concept Speeder Bike, and Rebel Commando...and the Concept Snowspeeder and pilot???

I used to have the speederbike. I don't miss it, it was pretty lame. I wish I had gotten the Snowspeeder. I honestly have no idea why I didn't.

There was a Concept Cloud Car as well, BTW.

Well, sheee--ite... Now I have to try and hunt that down.

A little different from in the game IIRC. Maybe I'm just thinking of Trapjaw though...

Starkiller is actually Leia that's in this newest wave.

Luke actually has a different name than Leia, but the goggled guy actually is Luke. I had a toyfare mag that said his(Luke's) original name and I can't for the life of me find it

Mcquarrie envisioned this concept before Lucas cut the breath mask for Luke.
According to another Toyfare article.


Solo is a bearded dude.

According to the bio on the package Starkiller is an early Luke, not Leia.

An early concept painting done by Ralph McQuarrie depicts an early version of the Luke Skywalker character as a young woman. The initial character envisioned for the epic was explored in various ways, including if "Starkiller" would be male or female. This image in the painting captures the heroic idealism of the character that was ultimately to become Luke Skywalker.

I'm pretty sure the upcoming concept Han Solo was a combination
of Han and Obi-Wan.

One of the ideas Lucas had for Star Wars was that Luke would be
this midget, who doesn't think of himself as a midget because
the place he lives in, everyone is the same height. Then he
gets out into the galaxy and most people are taller. I think
Lucas used this idea for the movie Willow...

I have not seen a single one of these figures. This makes me sad.

I've seen parts of the Wave 4 at my comic store. Dark Trooper, and the ones I wanted were gone, and they were overpriced at $10 per figure.

So I'm waiting for normal retail on those. Want a biker scout, or two and dark troopers.

I was talking about the female starkiller.

The comic con exclusive is also named starkiller, I was wrong about the last name. I found the mag, his name was Deak Starkiller, not Luke.

[Tigertrack]

I was talking about the female as well.

My previous posts, the profile, is from the 'Starkiller Hero' which is the female version. The name started being listed as Leia Starkiller, but was changed, and this is my opinion, because it truly is not meant to be Leia which was an error made by companies listing her name for sales.

The package says it was intended to be the protaganist, a female version of Luke--they were looking at all aspects of the character. Whether this was a melding of the Luke and Leia characters, and then they were separated, but this was intended to be the character that is Luke...albeit in female form.

According to the package bio, anyway.
