Food for thought: There is no "Darth Sidious" in the credits to Episode 1...
I think that Lucas assumed people would know that Sidious and Palpatine are one
in the same, but then again perhaps he wants us to think that for some future
plot twist... Only time will tell.
And just to be anal... Sidious is NOT a Jedi... he's a dark lord of the Sith,
completly different philosophies, ideals, and origins in Star Wars lore.
Anyway, back to Lego... I've come up with several new minifigs that I think are
pretty cool. I've got an Emperor, a Royal Guard, a Ric Olie, and a Bib
Fortuna, I also made a Jabba the Hutt that I think is pretty cool (and funny.)
I'm going to post some pictures on my website within the next few
days(http://members.xoom.com/Hobartrus/lego/sw/)
