So... because I'm a bit geeky (anyone not?) and I am nearing in on having *all* the Rebel pieces... and because I love lists... oh, and because I'm currently re-watching the movies in bits... I'm trying to put together a list of what SWM pieces I would need to get to put together each scene. I mean, I'm not gonna film anything or play out the movie in a big game or something... well, not yet, anyhoo - but I just thought it'd be an interesting exercise... and maybe one that someone else out there (possibly you) would think was worth a laugh too. Hmmm.

Well, the opening scenes on the Tauntive IV are the best place to start. So far I have:
Rebel
C3PO
R2-D2
Leia Organa, Senator
Rebel Captain (getting strangled... *hehe*)
10x Rebel Troopers (Well, that's the max I count)
a Protocol Droid (a K3PO?)
an R4 Targeting Droid
a grey Astromech (an R7?)

Imperial
Darth Vader, Dark Jedi (the strangling kind)
2x Imperial Officers (from A&E)
10x Stormtroopers
2x Star Destroyer gunners (ah... they look like 2 AE Imp. Officers...)

Anyhoo - I haven't even looked at what kind of different types of pieces (ie there are 3 types of Rebel Troopers and a bundle of Stormtroopers... then you think about Elite Rebel Troopers too... and Stormtrooper officers... Hmmm). And, also - if you look at the Ultimate Missions book, it suggests X amount of squads of Stormies plus Stormie Officers... and then those two Gunners could actually be Imperial Navy Troopers or something... and should one of the officers be a Star Destroyer officer... oh, the joy of it all!

Anyhoo - if you have two cents to add, you are most welcome. You think this is confusing - the next one has all the random droids at the moisture farm... *sheesh*

PS. I am geek.

You could do the cantina scene from Tattooine, but Chewbacca vs. Ponda Boba wouldn't be much of a fight. Tongue

One scene at a time...! ...and I'm not so sure I want to play it... I'm merely trying to work out who's in it. Playing it might come much later...

Just throwing it out there, my cousin tells me that the captain that's getting strangled is Captain Antilles. The piece of him is from Revenge of the sith, and yes he is Wedge's father.

It has been stated that Wedge Antilles, Corellian, is no relation to Capt. Antilles, Alderaanian. I forget who said it, but apparently Antilles is the "Smith" of SW.

Here is some info on Wedge

http://www.starwars.com/databank/character/wedgeantilles/

I often thought about sitting down and watching the movies and creating scenarios from them. I'm looking to do more creative stuff with my boy.

I would look thru Wookieepedia, excellent resource! ThumbsUp

From Sithborg
"It has been stated that Wedge Antilles, Corellian, is no relation to Capt. Antilles, Alderaanian. I forget who said it, but apparently Antilles is the "Smith" of SW."

Correctomundo! Wink I've read/heard that from several different source's. Once again Sithborg is Da Man! BigGrin I researched that a while back because I thought they were related too.

I would check the credit's from each movie too.

P.S. We are all geek's here dude! ThumbsUp

well with that kick it has often crossed my mind that with the fate of the jedi series it almost seems that emperor fel would be the grandson of jaina. it is a possibilty as to how the later Fels obtained their force powers.

So, the Stormies are 501st Stormtroopers. And the two Imperial Officers are actually Commander Nahdonnis Praji and 501st Legion Officer Daine Jir. Pello Scrambas is one of the Rebel Troopers... he's probably an Elite...
