As far as 'largest parts', I'd probably guess Boss Nass, Owen Lars, Chief Chirpa, Watto, or Sebulba. Young Anakin has the largest part with no representation, but with all the other Anakins, I don't think we could say we haven't seen a mini of him. Boss Nass has already been announced, so not him. So I'll guess Sebulba.
are those characters really necessary? also, do you have any ideas besides sebulba[/quote]

Is any character really necessary? With 1000+ sets of stats and more to come, I think eventually getting everybody from the movies is a good goal.

You can kind of guess about which figures have large roles from the above... Shmi, Watto, and Sebulba are really the only ones that have large roles. The rest are basically one scene. Owen and Beru a little bit longer, but not as much as the three from Ep 1. Watto has been requested more than Sebulba and Shmi, so he might actually be a more likely choice.

Eh. Thats a little harsh. I dislike kid any as much as anyone, but he's still an integral part of episode 1, like it or not. He's present for the majority of the film... which makes him really the only unrepresented main character from the movies that we don't have.

People griped about Jar Jar for years, and when they finally released a figure for the piece, i think they did justice to the character while adding something to the game. I don't see why the same couldn't be done with little orphan ani.

Echo shouldn't walk. He should try spinning. Thats a good trick.

Lol, that I have. That might be a bit of hyperbole, but only a bit; not only is young Ani just an awful character, he is also a silly non-combatant. Yeah, he did that stuff in the fighter at the end of the movie, but again; that's silly. I guess he could be a character that has 10 damage, but does triple damage on crits and his crits can't be prevented and he has Use The Force with just 3 FP and no renewal. So when you need it you get a single 30 damage shot that can't be prevented.

Still though, there are so many better characters to make and even better characters than little kid Anakin, that I would be loudly against his creation.

He also removes any mini at will. No save. Erases existence.

Looks like you just designed a decent piece with hardly any thought about it - think how great he could be with more work! BigGrin

I know he's not popular, but he's perhaps THE major figure of one of the six movies, so he deserves to have a mini. There are plenty of non-combatants that have figures already. Many of the commanders, diplomats, Youngling, demolitionists, traders, non-combat droids, etc.

That's just because I'm SUCH a great designer. Laugh

I just think that there are so many better uses for a spot in a set then a kid Anakin, in my opinion.

Still, a kid Anakin wouldn't be that hard to make. He'd just be more of a support piece than anything. Something like:

Anakin Skywalker, Slave:
Faction: Fringe
Cost: 12
HP: 30
Def: 14
Attk: +0
Damage: 10

Unique
Melee Attack
Repair 20
Industrial Repair 30
Emergency Maintenance (Adjacent Droid allies gain Avoid Defeat)

FP 2

The set theme is not 100% of the set, as I remember reading they try to make about 40% of the set represent the theme. Though the mini set is always %100 of its theme.

or you could say - just because YOU don't see them as heroic doesn't mean other sith/vong characters wouldn't consuider them heroes of the galaxy - to very loosely paraphase obi-wan - it all about the point of view.
