GNerdful His name is David _Prowse_, and he is from Bristol, England. Prowse always knew that a voice-over was needed, but believed that he was going to do it despite his West Country accent. He was not happy when another actor was chosen and he was outspoken about it, and so grudges formed between him and Lucas. During ROTJ, the scene with Sebastian Shaw was kept secret and Prowse had been scheduled for a photo shoot somewhere else at the same time just to keep him away. Prowse is still not being invited to Lucasfilm's own events, despite of Lucas no longer being involved. Prowse had quite an imposing figure at the time. He has been in other monster movies, and he is seen working out in A Clockwork Orange. He was also Christopher Reeve's personal trainer for a while.

Poor office sofa, he was so proud to be chosen as brown sofa's understudy after the grueling auditions. He's clean, does not smell, is never late for work, doesn't have an heroin problem, but the fan treat him like Jar Jar Binks.

True but these were official

That "light-piping" thing was actually used by the Nintendo Switch. The joy-con grips and wrist straps used it to show the battery/player number on the controllers. When I saw it I immediately thought of that R2 figure.

I honestly think these figures were based off the 1970s Star Wars comic artwork.

The Royal guard must hold the record of figures with the fewest points of articulation at a whopping 2.

Though admittedly the Imperial Guard did have about as much action as a toy as they did in the movie. "Okay, now we need you to stand around and do nothing. Perfect! Cut!" Oh, and that part where the Emperor tells them to leave and they turn around and walk off? Gave me goosebumps.

I got it - Luke Skywalker as drawn by Rob Liefeld!

Man it's crazy, I remember when this was new and it's nearly 5 years old already

These are just Star Wars themed he man figures

What is funny about both the Stormtrooper E11 blaster and the Rebel DH-17 is that I believe that the props are actually both based on the sterling submachine gun, so it's just extra funny.

"Like it was Life Day." Hoooooo boy, that's a good joke. Wow.

"Dancing is very lethal in the Star Wars universe" Actually accurate, most of not all of Jabba's court died (the one dancer was thrown the Rancor pit and many more perished aboard the Khettana) and the Ewoks are not seen again after the film ends so they probably died as soon as the credits rolled.

Ashens, "a bottle of Billy D's" is one of the funnier things I've ever heard you say on this show. Cheers!

Well these seem to be the same ones except their paint jobs are way worse. Maybe that's a UK thing... On a side note, that exact Stormtrooper was my first Star Wars figure ever and I loved it to death. I made him a spaceship out of an old shoebox because my mom couldn't really afford to go all out on toys at the time. I still have him, though at some point his legs broke off at the point of bending and I had to superglue him back together. Man, this is so nostalgic!
