(...) I think you are looking at the emperor fig that comes with the Imperial Shuttle. His face is yellow. The TIE Fighter set comes with a black (full helmeted) TIE pilot and a white Stormtrooper. Look at the pic again. BEN GATRELLE (24 years ago, 24-Oct-00, to lugnet.starwars)

(...) I have always thought that the body on a Blacktron I figure would make a perfect TIE pilot, we just need the helmet. Tim (24 years ago, 24-Oct-00, to lugnet.starwars)

(...) a (...) It doesn't look like Vader (the pilot appears to have a yellow face which wouldn't fit in with the grey one already used), but it also doesn't look like a TIE pilot (where's the full-face helmet?). I'd guess at it being an Imperial (...) (24 years ago, 24-Oct-00, to lugnet.starwars)

...Shades of "Murphy's Rules" from the old _Space Gamer_... Looking at the new catalogue (who's not?), it appears that Lucasfilm, Ltd., has trademarked the word "Imperial."

(...) You can already make a Bespin Luke. Take Luke's head and slap it on the body of the ground tech from the X-Wing set. The tech is wearing pilot's ground fatigues, and that's all Luke was wearing on Bespin. If and when Bespin sets come out, I (...) (24 years ago, 24-Oct-00, to lugnet.starwars)

(...) I think that there is something of an inverse relationship about this Luke fig. - he is the most marketable character to parents/young kids who aren't necessarily big fans. Luke has maybe a dozen different costumes - farm boy, pilot, Jedi in (...) (24 years ago, 24-Oct-00, to lugnet.starwars)

(...) If that's their marketing strategy, how do you explain the figs in the TIE Fighter set (Stormtrooper and TIE Pilot)? Assuming, of course, that the black blobby fig isn't Vader. eric (24 years ago, 24-Oct-00, to lugnet.starwars)

(...) It *has* been the case with Star Wars. The only young Obi-Wan minifig is only in a $50 set. The only source (currently) for Princess Leia and C3P0 is the Millenium Falcon (a $100 set). If you discount the minifig collectors sets, then (...) (24 years ago, 24-Oct-00, to lugnet.starwars)
