    I think Hasbro has the same issue with their heroes and villains/supporting cast too.

    I think Luke and Han always sell better than Lobot (or whomever). The die hard fans want secondary and supporting characters but the average kid just wants to see the big names.

    As a result, there are 30 different versions of Luke in Hoth Gear and yet poor old Niem Numb is lucky to get 1 figure.

      >did any of you use your friends,siblings doubles as "doppleganger" villains?

      HAW! Yup! And I used to hoard knockoffs and cheapie figures for baddies too. At one point Han and Luke were fending off an army of Shogun Warrior tops.

            I like John Stewart. JLU did good things for him.

              He WILL look different, you already know that. He'll have a removable cowl

                All of these pix are not mine. I found them through various pick offs of the Internet by doing Google searches. I am surprised at how close in details they have got to the figures as far as closeness. John Stewart...well...

                  Is that John Stewart a custom or a prototype?
