Why are the main character mini-figs in the Star Wars sets universal in their
look of unhappiness?  The background characters seem generally cheerful.

It struck me that many of the characters (original Luke-head, Young Obi-Wan
head, Old Obi-Wan, Padme, etc) are sort of expression-neutral.  Their faces
would be as appropriate for playing out happy scenarios as playing out bad
ones.

After all, when Luke is lying there on the gantry with his hand cut off, Vader
looming over him, it would be pretty creepy if he looked cheerful.
