I *know* they're characters. Here's my point. Tell me the name of the guy
who is portrayed by the Indian Cheif. The actual guy. There isn't one! It's
just a generic figure. Now, I can tell you the names of the guys who are
portrayed by the Luke and Han figs. They are Luke Skywalker and Han Solo.
These are no different than the Indian Cheifs or King Kahukas. What makes
them different is that Mark Hammill and Harrison Ford portrayed Luke and Han.
It's kind of a "double portrayal" thing. That's my point.

I apologize. You're right that "race" is the wrong word. Insert word that I
can't think of in it's place (something like ethnic background?)
