Yes, the Boga that Obi Wan is riding on. Kind of like a giant lizard.

The Oytugh would make a smashing Trash Chute critter. All we need are some home-brew SW stats for it. [:)]

The Boga is a riding lizard.

We have Eopies, Banthas, Rontos, Orrays, Dewbacks, Tauntauns, Kaadu, Thrantas...and in the teaser trailer there appear to be giant fleas people are riding on the volcano world.

So if you think that riding beasts dont count as monsters...then I am unaware of any monsters in Episode 3...guess we will have to wait and see...though in sure there would have been a toy or something we would have seen by now.

Lucas also had a bottomless pit in every movie until Attack of the Clones..so he breaks tradition sometimes :)

And back to the original topic... That remains to be seen. There's warfare going on several worlds if I'm not wrong, there will be several places for a monster to appear.

If you make the trash compactor monster a mini...it has to be on a large base with trash piled on it and the eye popping up to catch a sneak at potential victims.

Ever play the original Dark Forces?

Its a 1st Person Shooter game for PC and PS1.

Dionagas popped up outta the water with teeth and tenticles and one eye. That would be the Perfect Dionaga sculpt.

Dark Forces had some cool stuff, and some not-so-cool stuff. Dianogas: cool. Punching out Krayt Dragons: not cool.

Actually...Those aligator-like lizard monsters that you fight in Jabba's pit are Kell Dragons...not Krayt Dragons.

Its still rediculus that you beat up 7 foot long aligators with your fists...dont get me wrong.

But I wanted to clarify that a Krayt Dragon is MUCH bigger and meaner. :)

A creature that's skeleton you use as a scenic background element can't be really small [:D] Are Krayt's actually ever mentioned in the films? I guess the skeleton is the only piece of Krayt we see there.

In the films we only get a skeleton....
And when Obi-Wan makes those really weird sounds to scare off the Tusken raiders he is imitating the sound of a Krayt Dragon.

I dont believe the word "Krait Dragon" is ever uttered in the movie...but then again ALOT of names of people and things are never uttered in the films.
"Ewok" for example is never said in the movies.

Wow, it isn't? That's strange. I guess almost anyone would swear it's mentioned if didn't know - unless it's being maked questionable by asking about it [)]

Well, there's a movie named after ewoks...

Mace Windu is never said in Episode I.

Qui-Gon Jinn (or Master Jinn or just Qui-Gon) is not said until he intoduces himself to Shmi.

Shmi Skywalker is never said in Episode I.

Palpatine is never said in the entire Classic Trilogy.

Boba Fett is never said in Empire Strikes Back.

Wow, I guess this is sign of utter geekdom [:D]

I had to check Sio Bibble with Google, I didn't know him by name. A few weeks ago My girlfriend's sister started to ask playfully from me names of people in Jedi Council and I think answered to them all [:D] She wasn't expecting that to happen...

It's much possible that they will make that figure in a later set.

Some more Stormtrooper sculpts would be nice as well, even if it just is one or two. I wonder if they are going to be including more generics in the next set, maybe have some Nobles, Soldiers and Scoundels. [:)]

Generics would be really nice, but I think mostly humans need that. one jedi and two non-jedi (one more and one less combatant-like) would be sufficient for most species in most cases.

One new stormtrooper sculpt in each other set wouldn't be bad. Some new specialists might also be cool. And rebels might need Elite Rebel Commando or Commando officer [:)]

Captain Cody? I've got the first CWC on DVD and watched the online one a couple of times. Which guy is Cody?

I'm kind of disapointed that we didn't get any of the unique guys from the Trade federation. Even an uncommon Sergant or Captain for the Neimodians would have been cool.

That's true, there were other separatists but I wonder why didn't we get Neimodians (except soldiers). Existence of soldiers in the previews suggested heavily that we would get Viceroy...

One more person that we will surely get later. In Universe, I hope =)

In Chapter 22.
He rockets in and says "Sir."
Obi-Wan says "Commander Cody..."
- "Master Kenobi. The enemy shields are being fired upon. It should go down in 3 months."
- "But we've been here a month already."
- "Yes sir! Were right on schedule sir."
And he flys away.

Im reading the novel "Labyrinth of Madness" wich is, as the cover says "the must-read prequel to Episode III"
Commander Cody is in it. Hes aparantly the head of the clone army that Obi-Wan and Anakin have command over.

Also Im going to the Star Wars celebration III. Tsemura Morrison will be there. On the convention program he is credited for playing Jango Fett in Episode II and Commander Cody in Episode III.

So there's a really good chance he will be made into a miniature.
But then again he is a Clone Trooper Commander and they already made one...so perhaps you alrady got him.

That's an interesting departure from the majority of the series. Each time a Jedi spoke to a clone trooper they always refered to their rank only.

It is WAY to soon for me to say.

Im only on chapter 3 out of 55. Cody is in chapter 1.

It makes alot of referances to events that happened in previous novels and comic books.

It says that Anakin has long hair and no braid and he is a knight and a padawan no longer. It also says he gets the scar on his face from Asaj Ventris' lightsaber.

In the cartoon we see him knighted and we also see him come home to Padme' with the scar.

The movie begins with Anakin and Obi-Wan comming to Palpatine's rescue because he was abducted by grevious.

So the end of the cartoon is the last thing that happens before episode 3...so the book must take place in the middle of the cartoon.

Or its entirely possible that the writer and the cartoonists may not have compared notes so the 2 stories may conflict with each other. Ill let you know.
