Good call on the Jabba the Hutt and playset!!!! They still have yet to make a better Jabba the Hutt 20 years later!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I didn't have them all as a kid so here's my five favority that I actually played with


1) Boba Fett . Guys a Badass. Plain and Simple
2) Biker Scout - He was the coolest of the Stormtroopers
3) Emperors Royal Guard - The weapon was ridiculous but he was cool
4) Power Droid - Seriously! I'd click the legs
5) Han Bespin - Just looked cool

in no particular order:

ev 9d9

lando skiff
power droid
hammerhead

from my inner-child-perspective

In no particular order:

Luke Jedi (always my favorite to play with as a kid)
R5-D4
Wicket
FX-7 (you've got to love the arms!)
Rebel Commando... like you didn't know he would show up on this list!

Hammerhead... interesting choice Hyver!!!!

Here's mine in no certain order.
AT-AT Driver
Tie Fighter Pilot
Power Droid (because no one likes the poor guy)

Here are my top 5

Han solo bespin.
Luke Jedi
Gamorrean Guard
Cloud car pilot
Barada

In no particular order...
R5-D4
AT-AT Driver
Hammerhead
Stormtrooper
Biker Scout

Will change someday I'm sure but for right now...

1. Boba Fett cause you can't beat the Mandalorian Armor.

2. Vader just because. Not seeing Vader on the lists too much, it's hard to beat the guy who can choke you with his mind.

3. Biker Scout hands down coolest Storm Trooper.

4. Boushh Leia has a thermal detonator and she's not afraid to use it.

5. IG-88 the original Terminator.

If there is one type of figure that I feel has improved the most for the new issues over vintage it's the droids. They look freaking awesome now! I love droids so I find it interesting they aren't any on my top 5.

Hoth Rebel Soldier: I like the Hoth things. And his coat is great! And very cool colours!

R2-D2: Great!

First Luke Skywalker: The first one is the best!

Biker Scout: My first ever original figure in my childhood. After lot of shitty hungarian bootlegs...

Han Solo Hoth: He's got the second best coat

As a child in no particular order:
1. Han Bespin - He was always my favourite character and the figure looks cool!
2. Hammerhead - Just always liked the figure, loved that colour blue, and it took my dad forever to actually find him in a shop so when he did he bought 2 ( One for the brother ).
3. Amanaman - Just looked so damn cool!
4. Han Carbonite - The freezing chamber did it for me.
5. Death Star Droid - Just thought he looked cool, and always loved him on the film stuck in the sand crawler.

As an adult in no particular order:
1. Luke Bespin - He's ended up being my focus and can't help but love him now.
2. Imperial Dignitary - Me and my mate made a piss take film with figures many years ago and we immortalised him in it as the ultimate bad ass, loved him ever since!
3. Hammerhead - Still love him, and two of the ones in my collection are the same 2 from my childhood, He's impossible to damage!!!
4. Boba Fett - My brother had him when I was a kid and I was gutted, at the end of the day he just looks cool! ( I like the Tri-logo version best )
5. Yoda - My brother ended up with loads of the cool figure when we where kids, like Yoda, Jawa, Luke Stormtrooper, so when I bought them as an adult, it was technically the first time I'd owned them, When my first ever Yoda arrived in the post I was so pleased.

Five is not enough!

Yes, 5 is not enough and I forgot to mention Bespin Luke!
He has 2 weapons, looks great and has something similar colours as Hoth Rebel Soldier who is my biggest favourite ever!

Tie pilot, these have allways been up there in my top five and also have the best variants IMO

Cloud car pilot, always loved these but my ledy's added even more love.

Luke Jedi, was my favourite as a kid. Still think he's up there now.

Han hoth, another great fig that was really cool as a kid.

Yoda, he's the Jedi master you know.

After much deliberation, my favorite's are as follows:

4. Darth Vader
5. Luke Jedi

Han Solo (Large Head)
General Madine
Rebel Commando
