Yakfinities #82 - "WHAT IF"

How about:
1. Intelligence operatives
2. First Responders
3. Inquistors, could be fun, but might be too narrow. We could expand it to Jedi hunters.
4. Or something like "If I could reimagine my favorite Star Wars character"

A few basic ideas
Imperial Defectors
Prequel Trilogy
Sequel Trilogy
Team Effort two or more figures connected by a common theme presented together. Examples would be Jedi Master&Padawan, Ship Crew, Rebel Strike team, etc.
Support characters
Complex idea
What if/Alternate timeline/history make an alternate version of a character based on an event going different (Anakin or Ben Solo not falling to the Darkside, Rey consumed by Evil), gender swapping (Hanna Solo, Prince Leo Organa, Jen Kenobi) or "recasting" (Leia was a blonde, Luke was an Asian,etc)

All of the above are great ideas. I'll just throw in ideas from the previous round as well.
Spies/assassins
Re-imagined Characters (What-if/Reverse gendered)
Comics (Dark Horse or Marvel)
Denizens of Ord Mantel
Monarchs, Aristocrats, Politicians
Support staff
Doctors/medics
Intelligence agents/spies
Imperial deserters
Giants
Peasants
Assassin Droids
Masters of the Dark Side
The Bad Batch
Concept Art / Alternate (never used) Uniforms
Missionaries

That's a cool idea and one that I'd love to see done, personally. I'm just trying to think of even the droids... could R2 and 3PO switch models (would really mess with their names unless Threepio models became Artoo units).
Why not C3-D2 and R-2PO? Make C3 all gold. You can cheat by getting one of the gold Wal Mart ones :lol:darthvlad":3spf5dm7 said:
R-2PO can be white, blue, and silver.
Or were you thinking short and squat Protocol Droids and tall, lanky Astromech Droids?
All of those sound good to me.
I suspect that I won't be doing many submissions though as I started a new job and there is a crazy amount of work I need catch up on.
I will also throw in my annual plea for "Holiday Special" since there are a bunch of holidays for the contest and everyone needs a Krelman figure or a "Bantha beheading Stormtrooper" to harass their Lumpy figure. This could also include "Ceremonies" for which there were a lot of".

In the Dark Horse Star Wars Infinities: A New Hope comic series, an alternate view of the pivotal event of the destruction of the first Death Star is presented whereby Luke Skywalker's torpedo did not cause the destruction of the battle station, and the Rebels at the Yavin IV base are captured by Imperial Troops. Princess Leia is given special treatment by Darth Vader, who realises her Force potential and presents her Obi-Wan Kenobi's lightsaber to begin her training.

What if… Anakin defeated Obi-Wan on Mustafar?
After slaying his former master, Anakin rushes back to Padme, only to find that she is dying. He commands the droids to place her in her ship’s medical pod and flies back to Coruscant. It is time for Darth Sidious to make good on his promises.
However, it seems that the secrets of Darth Plagueis died with him, and the Emperor’s promises prove false. Padme dies in childbirth, and Anakin reacts as one might expect.
With Palpatine out of the way, Anakin seizes the throne, vowing to honor Padme by bringing peace and order to the galaxy, through whatever means necessary. He quashes all resistance both from without…
…and within.
As his children grow, they both prove to be strong in the force and he trains them to be his most powerful enforcers.
Soon, none dare oppose the Royal House of Skywalker.
Anakin is a Count Dooku body, with armor and gloved hand from a carbonized Vader and the cape from the first Vader figure. The head is by Camarodude1967 on eBay. Luke is Moff Gideon, with gloves from Darth Maul, legs from RotJ Luke, and head from Yavin Luke. Leia is just Second Sister with a Hoth Leia head.

Until the recent GREAT REBELLION, the JEDI-BENDU were the most feared warriors in the universe. For one hundred thousand years, generations of JEDI perfected their art as the personal bodyguards of the Emperor. They were the chief architects of the invincible IMPERIAL SPACE FORCE, which expanded the EMPIRE across the galaxy, from the celestial equator to the farthest reaches of the GREAT RIFT.
Now these legendary warriors are all but extinct. One by one, they have been hunted down and destroyed as enemies of the NEW EMPIRE by a ferocious and sinister rival warrior sect, THE KNIGHTS OF SITH.
Appearing in the Dark Horse series "The Star Wars: Based on George Lucas' Original Rough-Draft Screenplay", General Luke Skywalker is a former First Bodyguard to Emperor Cos Dashit, who after the defeat of the rebellion, served King Kayos as a general in the military on Aquilae.
Appearing in the Dark Horse series "The Star Wars: Based on George Lucas' Original Rough-Draft Screenplay", Annikin Starkiller is the son of Kane Starkiller, a former Jedi, who after the death of his brother Deak at the hands of a Sith Knight at their home on the Fourth Moon of Utapau, is drawn towards his destiny.

Nice! Great job on these two. I really like the way you captured the feel of the comics. Your soft goods work on these is really outstanding. I've got a character from the story in the works too
What if Darth Vader wasn't Luke's father? What if Darth Vader wasn't Luke's father (and it was a name not a title)? In Star Wars Episode IV Obi Wan tells Luke that his father was betrayed and killed by a pupil of his by the name of Darth Vader. Now, to go with the theme of What If, what if Star Wars didn't do as well as it did and it was a stand alone movie (perish the thought :wink: ). We would believe what Obi Wan said and Anakin didn't become Vader. I present to you Darth Vader, former pupil of Obi Wan, Jedi, and murderer.

"Luke's Father" to continue with the stand alone movie theme, here is Luke's "Father". All we know about him is what we learn from Obi Wan. Luke was under the impression that his father was a navigator on a spice barge. Obi wan informed Luke otherwise. He told Luke that he was a Jedi knight like his father. He told Luke of him being a cunning warrior and excellent pilot.
As I kid, I always imagined Jedi wearing some type of armor.
