You might have spotted the link Korova put in a comment on a previous post, but the web page is so good it deserves a mention here- The Star Wars toys that never made it.
I can't help but think that there is probably a bigger market for the 'Dead Ewok' figure than they realise.
I also think that if anyone had ever suggested these toys to the toy company they would have been made. Let's face it if they released a toy of that gonk droid they would release anything.
If today is Star Wars' birthday then appropriately that means the film would be a Gemini.
A quick look for it's hororscope on yahoo reveals:
"Today, 'action!' is your motto. When in doubt, just do." Which already sounds like yoda is keeping his hand in by writing these things.
It goes on to say-
"Think of your life as a good book. Sometimes there are twists and turns you didn't see coming (What do you mean she's my sister? $h!t. This is more embarrasing than finding out who my dad was), but when you think about it, you realize they were pretty much inevitable (*coff*crap prequels *coff*)."
Maybe there is something in this after all...

the prequals did have one redeeming feature. Liam made a great Qui Gon Jin, ok that's pretty much the extent redeeming features. Possibly not quite enough to justify three films. Just one with lots of Qui Gon would have done.
I knew you would like those toys!! Shame you can't buy them. I would be straight down the shops for Aunt Beru and Uncle Owen.
