View Full Version : VOTE for your Top 50 Expanded Universe Figures!
Tycho
08-02-2007, 08:33 PM
Kidhuman and I had a lot of success with our Top 50 polls we started on the site here in 2004. We used two different methods and you all indicated that 36 of 50 choices were the strongest either way. We're about 50% through with seeing all our winners made into action figures today, including likely 2008 additions. I think we should go for 100% or at least 75% before we vote again.
But with that in mind, we have 3 categories of figures to continue the line with when we do vote (and Hasbro is interested in the voting as of now). Those categories are:
1) Figures Never Made Before - see our polls we conducted in the past.
2) Resculpts - for which our previous polls allowed as write-ins and some won.
3) Expanded Universe - which was never polled.
It would take at least a year to re-read everything (especially counting the crap) and make a list of every "Page-by-Page: EU Figures Never Made Before."
Let's just list what we want.
1 pt. = Choice # 50
50 pts. = Choice # 1
Just pull from the top of your head. If you hate the EU, please don't participate. Some of us feel that Ulic Qel Droma will sell better than Darrow Willits and are willing to test that theory once we get a list to put into a larger polling mix.
Please use TheForce.Net's EU Timeline (http://www.theforce.net/timeline/) to jog your memory when comprising your lists.
Here is mine:
1. Jix - Shadows of the Empire
2. Guri
3. Black Sun Thug
4. Leebo
5. Koth Melan - Bothan Spymaster
6. Noghri
7. Joruus C'Boath
8. Talon Kaarde
9. Capt / Admiral Palleon
10. Aves
11. Rukh
12. Kahbarak
13. Montross (Mandalorian Death Watch)
14. Dooku as Jedi
15. Young Obi-Wan (age 13)
16. Siri Tachi (Jedi)
17. Yuuzhan Vong Warrior
18. Luke Jedi Master age 40
19. Leia Organa-Solo, Chief of State, age 40
20. Mara Jade Skywalker as Jedi, age 39
21. Han Solo, age 50
22. Jaina Solo (Jedi Knight)
23. Jacen Solo (Jedi Knight)
24. Kyp Durron
25. Nom Anor
26. Supreme Overlord Shimmra
27. Jaina Solo (X-wing Pilot)
28. Corran Horn (Jedi)
29. Kyle Katarn (Jedi)
30. Ysanne Isaard
31. Executer Sedriss
32. Admiral Daala
33. "Tank" - Imperial Lt. Sunber
34. Winter (Rebel Agent Targeter)
35. Anakin Solo (Jedi apprentice)
36. Jacen Solo (Jedi apprentice)
37. Jaina Solo (Jedi apprentice)
38. Tenel Ka
39. Tahiri
40. Ulic Qel Droma
41. Exar Kun
42. Nomi Sunrider
43. Master Arca
44. Sylvar
45. Tott Doneeta
46. Cay Qel Droma
47. Cade Skywalker
48. Darth Kraayt
49. ?
50 ?
I'm not really sure about figures from "Legacy." Plus I've some space left for figures from the live-action TV series if that actually spawns any strong appeal for me. I really do want even more obscure characters from Heir To The Empire and maybe I should have put Borssk Fey'lya in there, or Garm Bel Ibis, but it would take a large group consensus to push any of them to the top anyway. Let's see what happens.

Right. I'll talk with Kidhuman about when to close this poll, but for now I'd expect it to stay open until the thread gets buried. Then again, if it's hot, maybe we should "sticky post" it.
I approached making my list logically: I selected EU choices that went with figures I already owned so I could expand my dioramas.

Chux, I would appreciate it if you helped Tycho calculate the totals. I am really busy working alot and wont have the time to do so.
I will post my list tomorrow of as many as possible. I dont even think I can name 20 EU of the top of my head.

The suggest/ground rules was 50. Sacrifices had to be made, and tried to go with from what would likely sell and while as upsetting as some think the NJO is, it did very well in terms of sales, and while Hasbro would like Dark Horse for reference reasons, there still is an obscurity associated with the comics compared to the novels. I ranked mine by what should be done getting preference over what is likely to be done, but all have a definite "need" in terms of keeping the line going. Get them interested in the "start" and the "end" of the Saga, go to the late period, than finally bring in the old hands, and top it off with what most probably want.

i dont think i can come up with 50 right off top of my head, so this is going to be an unordered list, i might spend awhile updating, then i'll order, if you deem that ok, Tycho.
Commander Krettch - Ewok Pilot w/ arm and leg extenders - X-wing series
Admiral Palleon
Jacen Solo, NJO Era/teen
Jaina Solo, NJO Era/teen
Anakin Solo, NJO Era
Tahiri, NJO Era -yuuzhan vong scarring

Corran Horn, Jedi
Nom Anor - Crimson Empire
Warmaster Tsvong Lah
Koth Melan or otherwise a Bothan Spy
Talon Kaarde
Garm Bel Ibis
Ton Phanan - Wraith Squadron X-wing pilot w/ face plate, could be a cool design i think
Dathomir Night Sister
Saba Sebetyne
Jagged Fel - Claw Craft Pilot
Alema Rar - NJO
Guri - SotE
Chiss Claw Craft Pilot
Ben Skywalker - Legacy
Lumiya- Legacy
Special things i'd like to see (worth a shot to mention):
Mini dioramas:
Something like the 500th figure, or the anniversery 2 packs like luke/leia grappling over deathstar bridge, or maybe 3 3/4 scale unleashed style:
Chewbacca- Standing defiantly roaring at the moon - Vector Prime
Ganner Rhysode - Defending enterance to the world brain
Vehicle: Claw Craft

Yeah, I need to count ORDERED lists when you guys have them. If you can't come up with 50, that's fine. But it will be scored in the list order so even if you have 10:
#1 = 50pts
#2 = 49pts
#10 = 41pts
So your order is important.

Tycho, I still am trying to compile a lsit here. Any EU goes games and all correct? And is Montross(Bounty Hunter) in the EE Mandolorian set?
El Chuxter
08-04-2007, 02:11 AM
Well, I've been drafted to compile the master list. (Okay, actually I volunteered.) In order to come up with an average score, the figures have to be ranked.
If you can't come up with 50, that's okay, but please try to come up with as many as possible just to keep the numbers working as smoothly as possible. (I'd say 10 as a minimum.)
Any character from any video game, novel, comic, cut scene, Holiday Special, cartoon, made-for-TV movies released theatrically in Europe, roleplaying game, customizable card game, etc, is fair game.
KH, as far as I know, Montross is not in the Mandalorean set.
And so no one thinks I'm a hypocrite, I'm working out my list of 50. ;)

Tycho

As someone who's sort of an "expert" on Tycho :D, his typical outfits are NOT the A-wing Pilot uniform he allegedly wore in ROTJ.
An X-wing Pilot Uniform would be the most useful.
As a civilian, he wears "Han Solo" clothes - his admitted hero.
He also wears Imperial Officer tunics (black and grey) for different Ops.
And Imperial TIE Fighter gear.
Finally, there's the Rogue Squadron dress uniform - white tunic over black pants with a red sash on the tunic top, also containing his campaign decorations and rank and Alliance insignia in gold.
The "Tycho" figure Hasbro opted for was likely to increase enthusiasm for an A-Wing Pilot figure.

I think it's from the Droids comic - a disguise C-3PO attempts to play upon. I don't know if C3PX is an actual real character, or one C-3PO invented for the role.
El Chuxter
08-05-2007, 12:42 PM
C-3PX first appeared in Droids, where there was a big case of mistaken identity, since he looks like Threepio with guns mounted all over him. It was revealed later that Maul built him.
Should he be #41 on your list?

Is that a fact? Its hard to keep up with whats coming out anymore. Keeping track of the EU Clone Trooper variants alone practically fried my brain.:D
Thats okay, here are 3 more you can add to my list in their place then. I don't think any of these are planned by Hasbro, but if they are let me know and I'll select another replacement.
Darth Plagueis the Wise [replacement for Nilihus' #]
Emperor's Reach Maarek Stele (robed with "Emperor's Secret Order/Prophets of the Dark Side" tattoos) [replacement for Bane's #]

DarkArtist and Umbra, eventually I'll need your rank-order list, 1-50 or 1 - ? you might come up with < 50.
I imagine we're quite a while away from calculating the totals however.
Should we leave discussion in the thread (I'm thining "yes") or have Kidhuman delete all posts that aren't numbered lists?
My thinking is that the discussion is helpful for those who aren't aware that a Tycho or Darth Bane figure is coming out, etc.
BTW: I get that the vote was for a young Darth Bane figure and not the one with (it's actually) a cage over his head to prevent the Dxun Moon symbiant creatures from growing there. (They're parasites that attached themselves to Bane's body when he went to raid the tombs of Darksiders interred on Onderron's moon. The creatures later multiplied but they were lightsaber resistant so Bane stuck with them. This occured after the Jedi vs. Sith War on Ruusan documented in the comics.)

I've been doing some preliminary adding / tallying of votes:
Nom Anor and more-over his Yuuzhan Vong warriors are the very-most-demanded EU figures in the lead!
Tales of the Jedi from Ulic Qel Droma and Exar Kun's era follow closely being very much in demand.
Not terribly unpredictable, but awesome choices!
Hasbro has the ability to do awesome TOTJ comic 2-packs with no trouble.
As to NJO (Yuuzhan Vong), I think the demand is showing and if KOTOR and concept figures work on single cards in forthcoming EU waves (Grievous, Ralph McQuarrie) then some Vong figures will sell for sure!
The Solo kids split their votes as some here want them as full Jedi Knights, and others as apprentices. They'll rank, but not as highly as the others I discussed above.
Voting will be open for a long while, btw. I don't see a reason to close this poll any time soon. So new people can always vote. I'll publish the totals as I get further into calculating them. Chuxter, please take your time but eventually double-check my work and I'll do likewise with yours. That way we'll make this as accurate as possible. At this point, I haven't even tallied everyone's votes, but I could see the pattern I discussed above.

I was just to ask you whence the poll should close. It doesnt matter to me as you said, people can vote forever, there is no timetable, except maybe ToyFair 08.
Tycho
08-11-2007, 08:35 PM
there is no timetable, except maybe ToyFair 08.
If Steve wants to personally handle the outcome of this with Darryl and the crew...
He's stayed out of this sort of thing in the past, so that would be my first prediction about his behavior this time as well. Plus to my knowledge, he is not a fan of the Expanded Universe. I don't know of any other staff from SSG that will be attending ToyFair '08 either.
I was thinking that at Comic Con '08, myself, El Chuxter, and perhaps if you make it out next year, you too, can handle presenting our results.
I'm sure it can be done through e-mail or snail-mail of course, but it seemed to make a bigger impact when we could discuss our results one-on-one at C3 in Indy in '05 for our last effort like this.
Keep in mind, that it has taken about 2 years to see 50% of our previous polling list winners completed as figures (with Biggs Academy in stores, Jango Fett from his apartment coming soon, and the 21-B from Vader's birth slated for next year, amongst others).
Thus a February Toy Fair delivery or a July Comic Con delivery in 2008, will influence (at the earliest) 2009 figures. These might be competative for slots in the line-up with the Animated Clone Wars figures and possibly the beginnings of the live-action series.
EU may or may not be seen as a success at this point, too. Remember, "The Dark Woman" is just hitting shelves, and though the comic is included, some fans are going, "WTF? Who's this?" Take it a step further back in time, Ulic and Exar, as high of regard as it seems probably everyone voting in this poll holds them in, were in fact characters popularized in 1997 / 1998 - and that's 10 years ago now. (but that's also testimony to their staying power)
So, if EU's deemed a success, we might see Ulic and Exar (if our list has influence) by 2009, about a dozen years after their debut, and about that long since their disappearance, too. There is also the possibility that the fans on the Hasbro staff have the enthusiasm, as well as the great awareness of these popular characters and they are already on the short-list or being slated for prototyping now. (If that comes out, I'll remove them from the list once we see a hard-copy and bump everyone else up according to their score - the list won't close for cross-outs only until it is finalized for delivery - just like the ones that came before it that saw Padme Handmaiden and Feltripin Trevagg amongst others, come off before the list was finalized)
Anyway, I think it's interesting and exciting - all the possibilities! :thumbsup:
Let's rock with this! Newbies, keep voting!

I was also doing some preliminary tabulating on my own, but wasn't sure how you planned on handling things like the Solo kids. I and some others didn't specify what version they should be, while others specified multiple versions of the same character in the same list. So, I counted generic and specific votes as distinct. I think that in the end, it should be taken into account that characters such as these have their votes spread out over seperate versions. I'll have to see how the numbers turn out.
Tycho
08-11-2007, 09:15 PM
Jaina and Jacen....
Since the Yuuzhan Vong are doing so well - our top vote-getters, I'm assuming any non-specified votes for Jaina and Jacen are for their Jedi Knight figures, approximately in their early 20's, as most Star Wars hero generations are that age anyway:
Obi-Wan TPM = 24
Anakin AOTC = 19
Padme AOTC = 24
Luke ANH = 19
Leia ANH = 19
Han ANH = 29
Specific votes for Jaina and Jacen as teens, will be regarded for their appearence in the Young Jedi Knights series at approximately 15 years of age, though that takes them up until they're 18 or so. I'm taking that to mean them in their tan "Bespin style" training fatigues, not the black, unless that too is specified.
Anakin Solo died as an older teenager, so I think he's best represented as in Junior Jedi Knights in any case (NJO or not).
So a straight vote for one of the Solo TWINS gets you their NJO Jedi Knight get-up. Again, if you want Jaina Solo in Rogue Squadron X-wing Pilot gear, please specify that. There has been at least one vote for her in that incarnation, too.
Anyway, I think this approach is logical considering NJO's popularity. If anyone needs to specify their vote for different Solo Twin figures, I'll change that for them on my score sheets. Otherwise, you don't have to do anything as I assumed the vast majority of you wanted the Jedi Knight figures.
Mad Slanted Powers
08-11-2007, 09:52 PM
Not having read anything past Hand of Thrawn, I'm only familiar with them as little tykes. So, I voted generic just because I'd like any version of them. I'd prefer something other than them as little kids, but haven't read far enough to know which version I would like best. NJO is probably the most logical, but Young Jedi Knights versions would probably be good too.

Left out are some 'gimmes' like Darths Krayt & Nihl and heavies of modern comics like Zayne Carrick & Rohlan, or Janek "Tank" Sunber, and already-rumored figures like Thrawn, Darth Talon, and Cade Skywalker. Ulic & Exar'd be left out, too, but Hasbro's given no hints that they'll even touch TOTJ just yet (I thought for sure they'd be among this first year's 2-packs; I also thought movie-deco Han & Luke Stormies would be in the repaint wave this year, so obviously I'm not on the same wavelength as the big H).

In the Mandalorian Evolutions set shown in the Hasbro slide show at Comic Con, they showed Jango, Boba, and Mandalore. The last looked very much like the Tales of the Jedi incarnation who swore his allegiance to the Sith Lord Ulic Qel Droma, which started the whole business of the Mandalorians being defacto servants of the Sith - traditionaly anyway.
I need more confirmation that Mandalore is a TOTJ figure, but if so, that really opens the door to Ulic, Nomi, and Exar, doesn't it?
This Boba figure has a removeable helmet, btw - for any of you considering voting for that. It's unnecessary as the figure will be released around Christmas time or First Quarter next year.
Oh - and surprise! - he looks like Jango under the helmet (with a skull cap on) - Steve's got pictures in his gallery. (and you thought it was JarJar under the helmet!)

Attn: Corran Horn fans,
Please specify Corellian pilot, Rogue Pilot, Jedi, or CorSec agent - what outfit and general age?
I guess I'll go for NJO Jedi Master, but I kind of like all the options. Corran kind of deserves more than 1 figure, but those who have already voted get to only specify 1. New voters can list several Corrans I guess.
It's "not fair," I know, but I myself get to pick only 1 Corran and this could screw up my on-going tabulation if I allow everyone to adjust their votes.
However, if you really, really want more than 1 Corran figure, please let me know what figure off your list you'd sacrafice for him, so that I could award those points to Corran # 2 instead (maybe - if I feel good about it).
If you only want one Corran, just specify which one. Thanks.
Oh, the same thing goes for a non-A-Wing figure for Tycho Celchu (X-wing, RS Dress Uniform, civies) - you can vote for that if you specify, otherwise I can't count your vote because Tycho is coming out in a few months already anyway.

08-12-2007, 02:04 PM
Mandalore is 100% the TOTJ version, Mandalore the Indomitable. It DOES open the door for Exar, Ulic, etc but Hasbro's still dropped no hints about them, far as I recall from all their Q&As. So I had to still vote for them, but didn't rank 'em so high as I might've because of the possibility Mandalore implies.
For the Corrans I picked, I guess Jedi Master would work too (not entirely sure when he became one, but it's the NJO version I want for that no matter what), and for the Rogue Squadron pilot, I guess the version from the books, so putting him in his mid-20s. I'm not too concerned with ages on most of the figures, just that the Solo kids look like they're in their late teens, even Anakin (he's ONLY a year younger, after all; make him a little shorter than Jacen, it's all good), and that any NJO/LOTF versions of OT characters look older than any movie versions. And make sure Leia's got a good head sculpt, not like MonkeyFace1995 or TinyUglyJediHead2007.

Not sure about which Corran Horn version I want. I've only read the X-Wing books and I, Jedi. Another X-Wing pilot would be boring. I'm not sure what he would look like in I, Jedi. The picture on the cover doesn't look anything like the drawing in the New Essential Guide to Characters, which looks nothing like the Decipher card. None of the pictures on the Star Wars wiki page seem to be alike. I guess I like this one (http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Image:Iii.JPG) best, which is how he looked in the New Essential Guide to Characters.
Tycho
08-12-2007, 07:00 PM
Yeah, when in doubt, the default will be the latest "Essential Guide to Characters" look. However, like Toominator specified Wedge in his civies, you can pick a specific comic book or whatever.
I loathe the cover art to "I,Jedi" - it's not representing Corran at all. But Toominator really compiled his list well. It's easy to tell exactly what he's voting for. Nice job! (Yet Ulic Qel Droma (default Jedi Knight) has two different looks - the Sith Lord being the Alt version. Actually 3, as there's "Ulic from Redemption" too. :rolleyes: )
Specifiying Ulics - I guess we must - may cause him to fall in the poll rank due to splitting his votes 3 ways. But I guess we have to.
Specify Your Ulic Qel Droma Votes please:
1) Jedi (default)
2) Sith Lord
3) Redemption (broken vagabound)
Sorry. We're fixing the flaws with this as we go along. And Ulic fans, of which I am one myself (I guess my vote goes to Sith Lord Ulic, and oh...wait...I do have my #49 and #50 spots still open...so I give 2 pts or my #49 vote to Ulic as a Jedi) I appologize for Ulic's pending plummet in the polls. But as one of the most popular characters were tabulating - rest assured that I think he'll still definitely make our Top 50. And with Mandalore slated for the Evolutions set, I think Hasbro has at least one Ulic up their sleeve on their short-list or even in pre-production now (with Exar, most likely).
Mad Slanted Powers
08-12-2007, 07:46 PM
The wiki page says the I, Jedi cover is Corran posing as Kieran Halcyon.
As far as Ulic goes, I've never gotten past the comics where he is a Jedi. So, I guess I'll leave my vote as that. This picture (http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Image:Ulicandnomi.JPG) with Nomi Sunrider might be an inspiration for a comic pack, but so could one with him and Exar Kun, or his brother, or with Vima Sunrider.
toonimator
08-13-2007, 04:33 AM
I guess for Ulic I'll go Jedi. I put Jedi/Sith but I like the notion of a Jedi version better.
FYI regarding Corran Horn... the Decipher card is NOT TO BE REFERENCED AT ALL. That's Michael Stackpole posing as Corran, which he agreed to do despite looking nothing like his own descriptions of Mr. Horn.
I never liked that hooded Corran image... just feels like an awkward drawing. But the outfit's fine, I like this pic better, same outfit tho:
http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Image:Corran_Horn_NEGTC_.jpg
It's pretty much Ki-Adi-Mundi's outfit, so it's kinda unimaginative for that, but it looks good on a human in those colors. It'd also mean Hasbro could just repaint ROTS Ki-Adi with a new head & saber (and separate hilt) for Jedi Corran, though he'd wind up a bit taller than he should be :)
I think Pilot Corran would be fine if only because he'd be in a green jumpsuit. Another possibility--though Corran himself may never have worn it, been awhile since I read it--is him in the later Rogue Squadron uniform, when he'd been reported dead: green suit, dark gray flanks, piping on legs, black sleeves. Could be fun to see.

Just a few words about this list - I don't read or like most of the books, so there are very few novel or comic characters here. Number one is Jaxxon, since a huge green rabbit is just so damn weird and cool that I want it. Number two is Kneesa since before I even knew about SW, my older sister had a book about Kneesa in it, so it has some sentimental value as one of my earliest SW memories. Number three is Teek since I like him in the Star Tours video and he's also just damn weird. After that, it's Clone Wars characters, then characters mentioned but not shown in the films, then Luke's Tosche Station friends (EU enough), then characters from the TV shows/movies, and then figures made in the vintage line from the cartoons.
1. Jaxxon
2. Kneesa
3. Teek
4. Obi-Wan Kenobi in Clone Trooper armor
5. Saesee Tiin in Clone Trooper armor
6. Durge with no armor
7. IG Lancer Droid
8. Clone Trooper in Mon Calamari gear
9. K’Kruhk
10. Darth Plagueis
11. Janek “Tank” Sunber
12. Skorr
13. Captain Kagi

I'm doing some more preliminary tabulating and I'm getting some interesting results.
The following is an ordered list that together, all of us are generating. Scores are not listed, but the characters are ranked from Most-Wanted to Less Wanted (though still high enough to make the list).
There are not 50 figures on this preliminary list, and not all have been tabulated. I'm seeing strong support for Lumiya as well as Ben Skywalker and some of the Yuuzhan Vong commanders, Jagged Fel, Darth Bane, C-3PX, etc. It will all be accounted for.
Here's just a preview of some of what I've got:
Nom Anor
Talon Karrde
Exar Kun
Gilliad Palleon (Capt, Adm, Grd Adm?)
Jaina Solo (Jedi)
Guri
Admiral Daala
Anakin Solo (Jedi Apprentice)
Jacen Solo (Jedi)
Corran Horn (incarnation unknown for the moment)
Yuuzhan Vong Warrior
Ysanne Isard
Ulic Qel Droma
Tahiri
Kyp Duron (Jedi)
Noghri
Kyle Katarn (Jedi)
Montross (Mandalorian)
Siri Tachi
Nomi Sunrider
Joruus C'Boath
Tenel Ka (Jedi Queen)
K'Kruhk
Kahbarahk
Han Solo (NJO)
Leebo
Mara Jade Skywalker
Lowbacca
Koth Melan
Vergere
Borssk Fey'yla
Jaster Mareel
Jacen Solo (Apprentice)
Leia Organa Solo
Cay Qel Droma
This is 35 of the likely finalists (out of 50)
I can see the choices reflected here indicating a preferred reading list amongst the EU as well.
New Jedi Order
Heir to the Empire
Tales of the Jedi comics
Shadows of the Empire
Jedi Academy
A lot of the best of the best is represented in those choices.

A brief argument regarding which Pellaeon to shoot for -- while his Captain incarnation would be great for Thrawn Trilogy stuff, as a companion to Thrawn, I think I'd prefer Admiral Pellaeon from when he was Supreme Commander of the Imperial Remnant military. The bonus is that his rank badge would be perfect for an easy repaint into Grand Admiral Pellaeon later on (official or simply customized), no more pips needed, to get the Old Man of the Empire. If he has a removable cap (as all future Imps should) it's even better, so the cap can be ditched for his GA version.
So to get a Captain, maybe, Hasbro (or we!) could plop an extra Pellaeon head on a Jerjerrod body (or a Jerjerrod/Ozzel hybrid ala the DS Briefing figures) for a Captain-badge version.
Tycho
08-18-2007, 02:59 PM
Palleon is shorter, remember. If the Ozzel figure is an accurate height (Ozzel was also shorter), then he is the best candidate for a custom body base.
Even though I own 2 of them for the appropriate "scenes," I cringe when people mention the Jerjerrod figure with his "I'm so angry the Emperor sent his lapdog down here to mess with my Death Star business, b!" expression when the man was so frightened, you'd think he'd add a neckbrace to his uniform if he had to be around Darth Vader.
Anyway, it also looks like Dark Forces video games will become a big contributor to EU figure ideas. The 80's Ewok and Droids cartoons could possibly as well. I'm working on tallying that.

I'll look at stats and case-breakdowns, 2-pack potentials, etc. when I get the "preliminary" preliminary scores settled. ANY OF YOU can recalculate these and double-check me for any errors. This is for all of us and the voting record is open and in plain sight for everyone to see.
I've tallied a lot of the popular character votes up 'til post #35, but less popular characters were tallied all the way through so I could tell who all was going to rank. I still have work to do on the above list, but I don't expect it to change much because of vote counting - rather only if I made a mistake.
KEEP VOTING IF YOU HAVEN'T ALREADY DONE SO!

The above makes some really good mixes:
there are 2-3 females in each set of 10.
there are 1-3 aliens or droids in each set of 10.
there is at least 1 "bad guy" in every set of 10, and on one occasion, even 6.
NJO dominates with 16 selections that could easily hail from that novel series - more than twice as many as the next competitor. Many interesting 2-packs can be made with these choices.
HTTE shows its staying power with 7 recommendations from you guys.
Clone Wars is not surprisingly the strongest category for Prequel EU showing.
Legacy of the Force has several selections exclusively to it, others with LOTF potential.
After all these years, SOTE holds its ground.
TOTJ comics are on an equal par.
These results are only temporary, but might indicate the must-read list for some of you.
Here are some possibly suggestions with the results we got:
NEW JEDI ORDER 2-PACKS*
Jaina Solo
Jagged Fel
Jacen Solo
Vergere
Anakin Solo
Tahiri
Nom Anor
Mara Jade Skywalker
Corran Horn
Yuuzhan Vong Warrior
Kyp Durron
Tsavong Lah
Borssk Fey'yla
Leia Organa-Solo
Han Solo
Lowbacca
* Actually, I don't like the idea of these in 2-packs, as I want to army-build the Yuuzhan Vong Warrior, and I'll likely want multiples of the Solo kids, though Jacen and Jaina packed together would make a lot of sense.
Heir To The Empire Potential*
Talon Karrde
Kabarahk
Gillad Palleon
Joruus C'Boath
Grand Admiral Thrawn
Noghri
Senator Garm Bel Ibis
(?)
* The Noghri is another character that should be single-carded so it can be army-built.
Clone Wars
IG-Lancer Droid
Obi-Wan in Clone Armor
K'Kruhk
SaeSee in Clone Armor
Legacy of the Force novels
Ben Skywalker
Lumiya
Tenel Ka
Darth Caedus
Shadows of the Empire
Guri (single card)
Leebo
Koth Melan Bothan Spymaster
Tales of the Jedi figures can likely be single-carded as KOTOR is being done with.
The Jango Fett: Open Seasons Montross vs. Jaster Mareel would make an awesome 2-pack with its comic, btw.
Some of these scores may have ignored other characters who made or are making gains up the ranking list. If you feel your favorite character has been slighted, please add up their scores and post what it is and where they should rank. It's possible I made a mistake and this poll is far from over yet. I'm just helping myself tabulate and commenting on whatever interesting patterns are emerging.
With Palleon for example, the issue of Capt. or Adm. or Grand Adm. has not been decided yet. Siri Tachi could be young to go with Obi-Wan when he was Qui-Gon's apprentice and she was Adi Gallia's. Or she could be Ferus Olin's Jedi Master, while Obi-Wan trained Anakin.
Darth Plagueis was suggested to be a Muun (San Hill's species). I'm not sure if any of you know that. I don't think there are picture references, though now an Essential Guide might contain something.
Ben Skywalker would most likely be covered as a late teen Jedi Knight.
Tenel Ka? A young Jedi Knight or the Queen of the Hapan System later in life?
Any picture reference for Darth Caedus (Jacen Solo as a Sith Lord in the future)?
I don't think we'll worry about these issues right now. However, these characters may very well have strong staying-power on our final list. So at a later time, we must decide these things.
Comments on any of this analysis?
New voters?

I noticed that Mando3lite has voted for Obi-Wan in clone armor twice, as well as Obi-Wan in clone armor on a speeder bike with lance, so actually three times. Mister Roboto has two #36's thus resulting in a list of 51.
I don't see Ackmena on your list. I don't know if it is because you haven't tallied her votes yet, or because of the difference in spelling and the fact that she is listed as Bea Arthur in one list. I have her with a total of 138.
I also wonder if Shira Brie and Lumiya votes should be combined. I don't know enough about the character to know the difference. I just discovered that they were the same while looking up the characters in the list.
Misspellings have made it a little bit difficult to look up some characters and determine which character people are referring to. Here are a few that I've not figured out yet.
Bok - metaljedi didn't specify which Bok he was referring to. There are several Boks listed here (http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Bok), including one actually spelled Boc.
Death Water Commando - I've not been able to find out who this is. I couldn't find it on the Star Wars wiki. This was on Sinscia Fat'o's list.
Kis'im - I tried different spellings but couldn't figure out who Kidhuman was voting for here.
Marauder Warrior - Mister Roboto and El Chuxter both voted for this. Are these Sith Maruaders (http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Sith_Marauder)?
I'm still trying to create my own tally. When (if) I finish, I'll message you Tycho so that I can send my results for comparison.

C'mon, you didn't seriously think I would vote for a KOTOR character over an Ewoks character, did you? :p

[QUOTE=Mad Slanted Powers;566811]I noticed that Mando3lite has voted for Obi-Wan in clone armor twice, as well as Obi-Wan in clone armor on a speeder bike with lance, so actually three times.
I only counted the highest amount of points awarded to Obi-Wan in Clone Armor. After I think 24 hours, only a moderator (of this section) can edit posts. (I can't edit them myself even). At this stage, I'll have to say that Mando3lite has wasted 2 of their other votes via their extreme enthusiasm for Obi-Wan in Clone Armor. But all is not in vain. Obi-Wan DID INDEED make the list and is in no danger of falling off of it.
Mister Roboto has two #36's thus resulting in a list of 51.
I caught that and used Roboto's rank order, not assigned numbers, to award points to his selections.
I don't see Ackmena on your list. I don't know if it is because you haven't tallied her votes yet, or because of the difference in spelling and the fact that she is listed as Bea Arthur in one list. I have her with a total of 138.
OK - I didn't know Bea Arthur's character's name. I'll look into this immediately. 138 points would definitely make our list, so I'll total her up. Thanks.
I also wonder if Shira Brie and Lumiya votes should be combined. I don't know enough about the character to know the difference. I just discovered that they were the same while looking up the characters in the list.
Physically, they're the same person, but Shira Brie was once a young covert agent of the Empire who seduced Luke Skywalker in Marvel Comics time. Lumiya is sort of a Dark Side Force user who has been cybernetically altered. It is like the difference between an Anakin and Vader figure. Lumiya had enough points to make the list. Shira Brie (in her youth) did not.
Bok - metaljedi didn't specify which Bok he was referring to. There are several Boks listed here (http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Bok), including one actually spelled Boc.
I don't think much of Dark Forces did that well other than Kyle Katarn. If the "Boc" thing can be clarified by those voting for some kind of incarnation of a Boc, I'll have more to look into. I only saw 3 votes that could qualify a character named anything like Boc, and most qualifiers on the list had at least 4 different people voting for them.
Death Water Commando - I've not been able to find out who this is. I couldn't find it on the Star Wars wiki. This was on Sinscia Fat'o's list.
I wondered if he meant the Clone SCUBA Trooper from CW and the Mon Calamari campaign? Doesn't matter right now - that figure MADE THE LIST and unless it could fall off, they're safe if not in an accurate position.
I'm still trying to create my own tally. When (if) I finish, I'll message you Tycho so that I can send my results for comparison.
Thank you. You guys should use my preliminary work above to help save you time. I did the hardest ground work for sure. Bea Arthur? Who'd have thought...
I got 131 for her and not 138. It barely makes a difference - just whether people want Koth Melan and Winter more than the Holiday Special Bartender or not. I'd suspect a Bothan and a lady Rebel agent would be more in demand anyway (except at Happy Hour). She does knock Darth Caedus off the list though. However, we have a long way to go before June, and any figures Hasbro shows at Toy Fair that might coincide with our list will be removed and the larger crowd advanced up in rank for the final list. - but it's not wasting a vote to support likely characters at this stage. We have no hardcopy in plastic of anything on the larger evolving list.

That only totals 44 points. If Bok is meant to be Boc, then that would give him 90 points and would put him in the top 100 just barely.
On the multiple Obi-Wan's, are you just deleting the other two and moving everything else up one? On the list of 51, I just left off the 51st name.

Anyone voting for the spelling "Bok" is likely voting for the Morgukai warrior from REPUBLIC.

08-23-2007, 12:15 AM
Well, if anyone can prove Bok or Boc has more than 84 points racked up, I'll double-check them to see if they qualified for the list.
As it stands, Bea Arthur (as Ackmeda, or whatever) kicked Jacen Solo as Darth Caedus off, but I'm not updating right now because it's unnecessary at this juncture. The poll will be open for as of yet, a long time.
Meanwhile, Kis'im was a cool character. I don't think I like the name. Sounds like "Kiss Him," and I get this unpleasant picture of George Michael training Boy George to be a Jedi. :rolleyes:
BTW, I knew Talon Karrde had some meaningful demand, but 1st place? I did expect him to be in the Top 10 or close to it though. I'm just a little surprised by his lead he took over others like the Yuuzhan Vong Warrior and Nom Anor. But I considered that nearly everyone read Heir to the Empire.

Kis'im is the Sith Lord who taught Darth Bane in Path of Destruction. HE was the lightsaber trainer at the Academy.
Okay, now I found him. The reason he wasn't showing up was because his name is Kas'im.
Meanwhile, Kis'im was a cool character. I don't think I like the name. Sounds like "Kiss Him," and I get this unpleasant picture of George Michael training Boy George to be a Jedi. :rolleyes:The local classic rock station is KISM 92.9 FM, so that's all I was thinking of.

I'm just a little surprised by his lead he took over others like the Yuuzhan Vong Warrior and Nom Anor. But I considered that nearly everyone read Heir to the Empire.I think the fact that he was a fairly major character in that trilogy was only part of the reason. He has also been in plenty of other stories as well, spanning a large chunk of time, and playing an important role. Plus there is a bit of the Han Solo factor. He's kind of what Han Solo used to be, or what he might have become had he not gotten so involved with Leia and the Rebellion and eventual new government.

The love for the EU is so strong that we've nearly gone a month (just shy of one by 1 week actually) without new votes, so I thought I'd bump up the thread for October.
Tycho
11-05-2007, 12:29 PM
It's close enough to the 30-day anniversary for this thread that I'll bump it so new participants can join in.
Eventually, when the original MOVIE scene-by-scene "figures never made before" list we voted for in 2004-2005 is done or nearly all done, I plan on using the unmade choices in that thread, combined with the EU winners in this thread, to do a new scene-by-scene poll and generate a new list.
The Force Unleashed, Clone Wars Animated, and Live-Action TV show may be getting under way by the time this poll happens. So the one we're running in this thread remains open because you never know if newbies will have the chance to post offering their preference for any new characters added to the mythos by LucasArts.
The remaining figures we originally voted for that have not yet been made are almost entirely "non-action roles." The exceptions are more cantina aliens and Jabba Palace characters. The main-character suggestions only really revolve around Padme, but there's a non-action Luke and a couple R2D2 variants in there. Cloud City might also be further fleshed out with cutting-room-floor-extra-aliens, but they'd still be cool to see made to expand that location's presence in the action figure line (not to mention offer the black Bespin Guard who is now rumored).
Anyway, vote away if you haven't done so already. Mad Slanted Powers is keeping an excellent tally, but you guys need to make his job more exciting.

I'm pretty sure I read (In Dark Horse's SW Visionaries) that Darth Plagueis was a Muun (from Muunlist, Separatist San Hill's alien species with the super long head, and sort of purple skin). I believe his speciality was Sith alchemy - which explains why he could prolong or create life with midichlorians. As Darth Maul proved, all Sith need not be humans.
Muun can be a boring species, but they created the IG lancer droids and IG-88, etc.

Yes, I understand he's a Muun, but really; from the pics we have seen so far he's just Sidious (looking very similar except the super long head which you don't see in any of the pics) in Sidious attire.IMHO Until he's fleshed out a bit more, that's all he's going to be to me.

As much as I hate all things EU, I have a soft spot for chick Jedis dressed in bondage gear who practically climb on top of you to taunt you. So, let's have her:
Komari Vosa
Jeez, that was a tough game, and really not all that good either.
You can vote for up to 50 characters, so feel free to add more to your lists. I'll wait for now until more people have voted or added to their lists before I post any updates to the standings.

Darth Plagueis, could be a cool figure, i personally hope for him to eventually get made in plastic, im actually surprised he hasn't ended up in a EVO. pack. Been cool to see him Palaptine, and and maybe a new Asajj Ventress. Or instead of Darth whatever his name was...from knights of the old republic.

I'm not feeling Plagueis. Take a San Hill figure and throw on a Sith accessory set robe from E1.
Maybe they'll change his species from what I think it is (Muun) but whatever. Will they make a young Palpatine to go with him? Or should you use the Clone Emperor figure from 1998 Dark Empire's EU figure? Someone could do a simple "custom" display like that: Clone Emperor with San Hill wearing a Sith robe and you have a Master and Apprentice for whatever that's worth.
Darth Plagueis (add Sith robe)?

It'd help if the San Hill figure didn't suck.

What did you want from him? Super-articulation? :D
He looks pretty much like he's supposed to for me.

He's got ball-jointed shoulders. That's some decent articulation for a stick figure.

I think I had Widdle Warrick on my list - well, apparently the Endor Battlepack that everyone thought was a poorly colored Wicket is actually Widdle (according to the packaging, but still a repaint of Wicket). Cool!

Of cowrse it's widdle. He's a widdle perwson awfter awww....lol sorry couldn't help myself. (This is not a slight on little people, but rather on Hasbro's screwup.)

The packaging looks like it says Wicket. Why are people saying Widdle and who is Widdle?
Mr. JabbaJohnL
11-20-2007, 09:06 PM
Yeah, I actually got this set today and looked at the back, and it's definitely Wicket. I had briefly looked at this page (http://www.rebelscum.com/TACUBPendor.asp) before, and it said it was Widdle, but didn't read that it didn't say so on the package. Widdle is Wicket's brother and was in the Ewok movies and cartoon, and his fur is the same coloring as this new figure.
Whatever his name is, it's a new Ewok, and likely as close to Widdle as we'll ever get.

A piece of good news and housekeeping item:
several figures that are ranking here are now strongly rumored as coming in 2008's comic 2-packs.
If they're made, they will be taken off the list and those ranking beneath them will advance.
NO ONE is going to get to re-vote. You get your figures you want -before all the votes are totaled and reported to Hasbro. The rest move up.
Right now, this could affect:
Darth Talon
Cade Skywalker
Grand Admiral Thrawn
Talon Karrde
or 4 / 50 - which is not a big deal. IF you voted for all of these, 46 of your other votes may still be registered as most important.
Right now, continue voting for Karrde or whomever if they are who you want most.
I want a final production picture of the figure before any get removed off our list.
It's not likely Hasbro will make all our poll picks before they even see the results.

Who wouldn't like to see Valence the Hunter, Shira Brie, Walrus-faced Jabba the Hutt, or any of the other great characters from the 107 Marvel issues? I know the series isn't part of the E.P. continuity, but neither is the concept Boba Fett. How about it?

Out of the hundereds and hundereds of characters made for the EU, the only ones I can think of would be these five from most wanted to least:
Nomi Sunrider
Juuros C'bath or however you spell his name
Kyle Katarn,
Jeric (Dark Jedi in Dark Forces II)

8. Any Darksider from "Dark Empire II," (Vill Goir, Kvag Gthull, etc.) they I went with Vill Goir since he seems to be the more prominent of the two you mentioned.
As much as I hate all things EU, I have a soft spot for chick Jedis dressed in bondage gear who practically climb on top of you to taunt you. So, let's have her:
Komari Vosa
Jeez, that was a tough game, and really not all that good either.I've put this one is as your number one choice. 50 points for her, no points for anyone else. Sure you don't have at least a top 10 to add to your list?
15. Itchawaroo
18. Lumiya (Marvel)
19. Saesee Tiin (spacesuit)
47. Xizor (red/orange)
On Itchawaroo, I'm guessing you mean Attichitcuk, or "Itchy".
For now, I'm not distinguishing between Lumiyas, other than to count her separate from Shira Brie. It seems that most of the votes so far are for Legacy era. If we get enough votes for Marvel era Lumiya, then I can split the votes up. However, keeping the votes together means at least one version places higher in the final ranking.
We've had several votes for Saesee Tiin in armor, so I've counted your vote as that.
There haven't been many votes for Xizor, so I just counted him with the rest as a Xizor resculpt.
Here is the updated list:
1. Jaina Solo.....529 points (16 votes)
2. Talon Karrde.....509 points (14 votes)
3. Jacen Solo.....506 points (15 votes)
