Did anyone else ever notice how lacking the Force Unleashed set was in so many areas pertaining to the game ? I've been thinking about it lately and I don't think they did a very good job building a set around the game. For example
Wookiee hunter at sr, they could have easily made it ozzik sturn
No kota's militia in the set
no felucians in the set ( aside from felcor)
We got the junk golem but like the felucians no medium sized droids from raxus prime
All this hoth stuff
No vaders apprentic if you chose evil, ( i can understand that since its not canon but it still would have been nice)
Finally no Emperor unleashed
Anyone else agree

just be cause a set has a theme, doesnt mean that theme is explored completely. many set have done that the knight of the old republic set didnt have all the KOTOR figures. revenge of the sith didnt have all the characters from that movie either.
and besides it just good product marketing to spread out things over multiple sets rather than contain all the goodies in one;)

True, but the common people you encounter throughout the game should be represented. In KOTOR, they didn't leave out Sith assassains, or Old Republic generic troopers. RotS didn't leave out clone troopers or battle droids. Like I said, the VA is just wishful thinking, I doubt they would avtually have made it. And as for the Emperor unleashed, this was the only set o use the Unleashed title.

Well as the set came out a year before the video game, I can imagine LFL didn't want too many things spoiled. And as the set came out a year before the game, you could say that they poorly represented the set with the video game ;) IMO the set is 100 times better than the game anyway.

I'm confused with what you mean by no "evil" Apprentice. We got the Imperial Apprentice and the Rebel Apprentice.

Yes, the Imperial version is Starkiller at the beginning of the game and the Rebel version is the light side ending version of him. What he was hoping for was a Darth Starkiller in the Sith Stalker armor from the dark side ending.

I dunno, a darthritis starkiller is like an evil katarn or a female revan. While possible in the game, there just isn't a place in canon for it. I feel like minis should still to canon.

And considering they had to start work on a set nearly a year before that, there was not a whole lot they could do without things changing. I do believe Obi-wan, Unleashed is an example of stuff they were trying to prevent, since he was supposed to be in the game, but was cut. And in an event like this (it was supposed to be a media event like Shadows of the Empire).

i didn't seriously want a Darth Starkiller,just thought it would've been cool. I see what you mean but i don't think that throwing in a few basic uncommons really spoils stuff, especially since there was already a felucian on rancor and junk ggolem.
