[glow=red,8,300]I just saw this ad on Hasbro.com
OMG!? What the heck?
This totally looks NOTHING like Obi-Wan and Yoda...it makes Yoda look like some queer elf...and he wasn't that tall either...and Obi...pssssh...who is that?
LOL
Star Wars Ralph McQuarrie Signature Series Obi-Wan & Yoda with Exclusive Collector Coin
They also have a Luke Skywalker...
Did that guy ever SEE the movies? I don't think we ever see Luke in that pose...a saber...a blaster...and some sort of Vader mask?
ROFLMAO... [/glow]

If you do a bit of digging about, you'll find that these are the original ideas for the main characters. If you can find it on the net they are shown in drawings of the film, i know what i mean!

CONCEPT people! these were concept. What we all saw at the movices was thanks in part to the concept dawings. With out them the orignial pitch would have never worked.

I bought this at Star Wars Weekends in June!

Ok for those who did not notice the words "Concept and expandednt unveris on the boxes of the action figs thats your fault. By theway i know your going to say Yoda and Obi died in the movies how couldthey have a expanded univeries version well news flash Read the books Luke still has a force bond with Yoda and obi even when there dead and they appear everyso offen. So up your people who cant read the fine preint well in this case bold print.

The Concept figures are based on original illustrations by the artist Ralph McQuarrie, which is why they look nothing like the characters we know! As already pointed out.
It's all part of the process of movie making. Artists create the characters on paper first to see if they fall within the visions of the director and what the director is aiming for, and advance from there.
Like the Concept Starkiller Hero eventually became Luke Skywalker, transforming from a female character to a male character.
The Concept line of figures are unique and will become without a doubt, valuable collectors items as time goes by.
So in reality, you've jumped the gun saying they look nothing like the final characters.
By now, you may have seen the Concept figures and have had time to read the backs of the cards so you know the story of the development of each of the characters from conceptual drawing through to final.
