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

Maybe they've been taking lessons from the Adventurers (who, my wife and I
were just noticing last night) are downright angry.

I was looking at Johnny Thunder last night myself and noticed that, for a
hero, he's a pretty uptight-looking fellow. I'm kind of a latecomer to the
Adventurers scene, but man alive! It's sort of hard to tell the players
without a scorecard! Perhaps I merely have not invested enough time into my
hobby yet... O woe! More reason to spend more time looking at LEGO sets!!

I think of Johnny Thunder as smarmy.  If I were to re-enact a stereotypical
silent movie in LEGO (such as: heroine tied to train tracks by ev-il villian,
rescued by virtuous hero), Johnny would be the villian.
