At least it will be on round bases.

Wizards has posted the Force Unleashed preview page. Regular previews should be along in a couple of weeks. | |

You can see one of the minis (the apprentice) in the image that links to that advertising page: 
One of the other booster art minis was posted on Gamespy to go along with an interview they did: 
If you can identify SW folks by silhouette, the image on the home page might be fun:

| | 09/21/2007 5:21 AM | Alert | It would be okay if all ten are represented but hopefully some of the smaller factions are represented by some common or uncommon minis to help pad their ranks a little.
Each faction getting a huge could be tough to do but it's a good idea. | | | |

| | 09/24/2007 11:31 PM | Alert | I know that I'm in the minority here, but I think it's about time we saw more Episode I inspired figures. Here's a few I suggest:
-Jar Jar Binks (with a Gungan commander effect)
-Watto (w/ Force Immunity, Flight & maybe Repair)
-Anakin in Podracer
-Sebulba in Podracer
-Obi Wan Kenobi, Padawan
-Captain Panaka (ok, so I really don't want to see this one, but hey wtf?)
-Anakin Skywalker, Tatooine Slave
-Trade Federation AAT
-Gungan Shield Generator (whatever those dinosaur things are called)
-Boss Nass
Okay, so these might seem like lame suggestions, since it's generally agreed that Ep. I was the worst film of the series. However, Wizards has made some pretty useful figures out of some pretty lame characters already (Lobot, Gonk Droid, Sly Moore, Bo Shek, etc.). I honestly don't think anyone would quit playing the game if one or two of these characters made it into a set. I think there's a remote possibility of seeing one or two of these in Force Unleashed, but if not, I would hope to see them in the future.
cheers. | | | |

puff_maul, you're not alone in wanting more Episode I minis. Certainly Watto, Sebula and Jar Jar Binks.

| | 10/05/2007 3:45 PM | Alert | The October PROMO figure has hit some stores. I got the stats off another site but I've not seen any pictures yet.
Gotal Imperial Assasin
Imperial
Cost: 21
HP: 40 Def: 14 Atk: +7 Dam: 10
SA: Accurate Shot, Careful Shot +6, Deadeye, Deadly Attack
Over-costed IMHO. It's the 14 Def with 40 HP that is a letdown for 21pts. But a possible +13 Accurate shot is still pretty good.

Though the poster hasn't been put online anywhere yet I'd say that they seem genuine enough. The Imperial Gotal is confirmed as that's the Promo. | |

The fact that Han Solo in Carbonite made it first pretty much says it all.

| | 10/10/2007 1:53 AM | Alert | Because Jar Jar Binks is a great character and a primary character. We now have five Boba's - WTF does he do in the movies other than get killed by a blind man with a stick?!!! As for the FU set.Â
I was very surprised at the high number of Rebels & Imperials following A&E.
With the exception of the Uggernaught (which is fantastic) I can't say I'm thrilled by the Huge, altbhough I don't dislike them either (except maybe Luke's Snowspeeder I can do without).
Most anticipated stats - Darth Revan & Secret Apprentice
Most looking forward to - Uggernaught & Ugnaughts, Amanin Scout
Oddest minis - Han in carbonite
Least wanted - Luke's Snowspeeder

I'm meh on this set; I'll grab a few pieces (hopefully all Uc/C), namely the knobby white spider, the junk golem, and Emperor's Shadowguard. I'm kind of sad this set is so Rebel and Empire heavy, especially after A&E (which was dismal!), but I guess that is what the Force Unleashed covers. Now, looking forward to the Legacy of the Force set.....
