It's unfortunate, too.  That's one less female face I want to use in my Town
and Castle.  Also, do you think her hair shows a tad too much forehead?

I was looking at my Star Wars Minifigs tonight and I noticed something.  One • of

are lower than on the others.  I don't have a scanner, so I can't really show
you what I mean, but the eyebrows are low enough that they touch the top of • his
little beady eyes, giving him a rather angry (or, if you prefer- since Jedi
aren't supposed to give in to anger- "determined") expression.  It looks an
awful lot like the expression he has at the very end of trailer two, when • he's
decapitating the Battle Droid.

Does anyone else have a similar head?  It's only on one of the four I have.
I'm just wondering if it might be some kind of variant (if enough of them • were
printed, and if Lego collectors care about this kind of thing).

(...) Well after watching the trailer I'd say it shows about as much forehead as the Movie does. Ryan "Build or build not. There is no try." - Lego Master Yoda (25 years ago, 18-May-99, to lugnet.starwars)

(...) Definitly seems like too much forehead although even with all the forehead in the trailer. Has anyone noticed that some of the new hair pieces seem a little loose. Especially on Qui-Gonn? Eric Visit me at: (URL) (25 years ago, 18-May-99, to lugnet.starwars)

(...) Yes, too much forehead. Definitely 'adds to the charm'. :( And I don't care much for the texture of the new hair pieces. I wish they were more like the old hair pieces. Steve (25 years ago, 18-May-99, to lugnet.starwars)
