I have to assume you were only refering to the classic Star Wars lego line,
because if you consider the Phantom Menace line we are still missing both the
Queen, (the Padame figure doesn't count in my book) and Darth Sidious (or
Palptine in the worst disguise since Clark Kent).  I sit and think however,
where do any of these characters fit into a set?  If not a minifig pack, where
can these characters apear? Stormtroopers never piloted any vehicles, maybe
the dewbacks, the Queen was only seen traveling in her royal starship, that
would be a cool model, and Darth Sidious was only seen in holographic form on
any ship.  Perhaps that is why we havent seen any of these characters yet.
