I agree pretty much with all that has been posted so far…

But I’m partial to Antilles because I read the novels and he had a lot more involvement than you would first think.

Anyone hear of Wes Janson? Janson and Wedge Antilles had perfected their coordination as gunner and pilot during the Battle of Hoth. He happened to meet with one of my Star Wars RPG characters in game. Which was cool. He was feeling really bad because his really good friend, Porkins, got killed because Janson had the flu and couldn’t fight. My friend got the actor, Ian Liston’s signature for me on a photo… Signed to my Star Wars character, Aria! 8D

Just in case you aren’t nerdy enough to know this, here is the breakdown:

It is a LITTLE obscure, I suppose, but only if you didn’t dig for interesting stuff to play in SW RPG.

While I agree with this list, there is one thing I would add: Admiral Ackbar!! Actually, I like him above Nien Nunb.

Because he knew it was a trap.

Thanks for your kind and polite reply. It’s so refreshing to engage in actual debate, compared to some of the responses we get around here.

See you at the round table.

Your an idiot. Get the facts. Fett burned his way out and Dangar found him.

I had the Death Star Playset. I was intrigued by the foam “trash”, but sorely disappointed that the compactor wall would not close all the way. I so desperately wanted to showcase the alternate ending to Episode IV where, in fact, R2 is too late and our favorite heroes are smashed into “who knows what”.

Not to make too fine a point, but long before the seriously-late-in-arriving books on Boba Fett (like back when the only ST novels were Splinter in the Mind’s Eye and Brian Dailey’s Solo trio), a UK star wars comic told us all about Boba Fett.

Sarlacc spit him out (not fond of mostly metal meals). He was found by Jawas I recall. In the long run, some odd amnesia-driven coincidence put him in the same Dune Sea with Han. Han tried to save him, but he remembered who he was, decided he was still pissed at Han, and went back into the Mouth of Sarlacc with an entire Sandcrawler.

The great part though was the background about him – about the Mandalorians. Seeing other Mandalorean protectors that hadn’t gone all cold and mercenary… now, the storylines with Mandaloreans from the Republic Commando books and from KOTORII are great, but the original comic story might have made an even better baseline.

And more importantly, it would have meant, sometime in the prequels, seeing *many* badasses dressed in Fettian armour. How awesome would that have been?
