 | Star Wars Power of the Force Action FiguresPosted Feb-25-08 08:24:10 PST Updated Mar-05-08 16:06:35 PST Star Wars Power of the Force Action Figures The release of the Star Wars Special Edition trilogy paved the way for the Power of the Force action figure line. This Star Wars line is considered the Neo-Classic era of the action figures. My Power of the Force Part II ebay Blog in the immediate future will have more images of the Cinema Scenes and other items such as the boxed items, vehicles, etc.. The first wave of the Power of the Force Carded action figures had a Red/Orange Cardback as seen with the Darth Vader action figure below after the basic figure list. The second wave featured the Green Cardback. Most of the images in this Blog are of the Green Cardback. Several other Green Cardback versions featured:
Boba Fett (Bounty Hunter) Regular Card  Boba Fett (Foil Card)  Boba Fett is seen on the Imperial Flagship, the "Executor" with Darth Vaders proposition: "Find the Millennium Falcon!" Fett is the only one that figures out Captain Solo's next move. The Imperial Fleet dumps their garbage prior to making the jump into Hyperspace and Solo floats the Falcon away with the rest of the garbage. As Solo leaves weaving in and out of the trail of space debris, he had no idea that the was trailed by Boba Fett in his ship, Slave I. Darth Vader (Foil Card)  Note that this version is the same as the one beneath it except for the foil to the left of Darth Vader. This is known as a "Foil Card". The foil stickers were added to the cards in order to celebrate the 20th Anniversary of Star Wars. Darth Vader (Green Card)  Darth Vader (Orange Card)  Darth Vader's relentless pursuit of the Millennium Falcon leads to the unfortunate death of Captain Needa. Near the asteroid field by planet Hoth, in hot pursuit, the Falcon vanishes. Solo actually cuts off the power and quickly lands on the conning tower of the Star Destroyer in a blind spot. Moments later, Vader demandingly asks for an update. Needa informs his men that he will personally apologize to Vader as he will fly out to rendezvous with the Super Star Destroyer Executor (Vader's Flagship). Vader kills him with a "Force chokehold"on the bridge of the Executor, after which Vader coldly replies: "Apology accepted, Captain Needa." Emperor Palpatine (Foil Card)  With his new Empire born, Palpatine is a despot determined to bend the galaxy. He orders the creation of the Death Star Space Station. This is one of his most powerful weapons of destruction. The Geonosians developed the early technical designs of it. Palpatine assigns Wilhuff Tarkin a ruthless Imperial officer and also a old comrade to further supervise the development of the weapon at Tarkin's secure secret Maw Installation which happens to be located inside of a Black Hole. The Tarkin Doctrine was created which was the Empire's policy of state terrorism: "rule through the fear of force rather than force itself." Palpatine ruled the galaxy from his throne on planet Coruscant now renamed Imperial Center. Vader as his right-hand man, the empire is run by the sector and Grand Moffs. It is supported by a large array of special organizations and agencies, ranging from Imperial Intelligence, COMPNOR, Imperial Starfleet as well as dark side adepts such as the Emperor's Hands. These were secretive operatives who conducted a array of missions known only to the Emperor and those he so desired. Emperor's Royal Guard (Foil Card)  By working both alone and in pairs, recruits learned how to rely on themselves or on a teammate to achieve victory, a step away from the squad-based Stormtrooper training received on Carida. Failure in training often meant death. In their final test, trainees fought each other to the death in an arena called the "Squall" before Palpatine himself. Only a handful would survive this final test and display of their loyalty and skill. Candidates are first selected from elite squads of the Imperial Stormtrooper Corps with certain pre-requisites such as:
Victory is achieved through teamwork and death is failure. The ultimate and final test was held in an arena named the "Squall" in front of Palpatine himself. Trainees fought each other to death. A small amount would survive and become the elite of the elite Emperors Royal Guards. Han Solo (Trenchcoat) Foil Card  Han Solo was a beggar in the streets of his homeworld planet of Correlia. The Captain of the Trader's Luck, Garris Shrike discovered him. This ship was similiar to that of a slave ship. The general rule was that all aboard worked. He spent a considerable time of his childhood pickpocketing for Shrike. A widowed Wookiee named Dewlanna raised Han like a son. Han earned his freedon at the age of 19. He left Garris's ship on the Ylesian Dream. Garris became enraged and killed his Wookie surrogate mother. He discovered an advertisment for pilots onboard the Ylesian Dream. Travelling to Ylesia which was under the control of the greedy Hutt's, Han unearthed a religious conspiracy. The conspiracy was led by a High Priest of Ylesia named Teroenza. He was attracting slaves to help process illegal glitterstim spice. Muuurgh the Togorian and Bria Tharen knew Han. Bria later became Han's first love. Solo stole a huge amount of Teroenza's secret private art collection. The collection ranged in the hundreds of thousands of credits. They destroyed the spice factory and hijacked the T'landa Til's private yacht. Han and Bria headed for planet Coruscant. She left Han and this is where he developed his short minded idea of love towards women: "Love 'em and leave 'em!" Han enlisted in the Imperial Navy. On the night of his induction ceremony, he was almost killed by Shrike for there still was a bounty on him for his sabotage on Ylesia. Han almost killed Shrike as he sought revenge for Dewlanna. As the two battled, a second bounty hunter killed Shrike only to be killed by Han. Jawas (Foil Card)  This race of beings are native to the planet of Tatooine and keep mostly to themselves. They are scavengers who have a horrid stench about them. They average only one metre tall. They always wear hoods which cover their facial features with a shadow. Part of the shadow is usually a nasty swarm of insects which constantly hover close to their faces. In most Jawa Clans, half of the clan live and work in Jawa Sandcrawlers as the other half are in the deep fortresses deep in the desert amongst their collection of rather unusual wares which we would deem as junk or garbage. To the typical Jawa, everything can be sold and there is always a potential buyer. The fortresses are cobbled together from old wrecked spaceships and have rather large walls which are intended as a means of protection from Krayt Dragons and Tusken Raiders (Sandpeople). Princess Leia Organa (Jabba's Prisoner) Foil Card  Leia's attempt to rescue Han fails for she is soon discovered as impersonating Boussh the Bounty Hunter in Jabba the Hutt's Palace on planet Tatooine. Jabba and his Court laugh at her after they see that she is trying to free a frozen Captain Solo from his prison of Carbonite which also decorates the Hitt's Palace. One of Jabba's Gammorean Guards brings Leia and shoves her against his slimy grotesque body. Leia warns Jabba that he will regret his actions. He rewards her by laughing at the comment and slowly kisses her with his squirmy tongue. Leia endures several months of rancid disgust as she is partially clad in a gold/brown bikini type outfit. Her body constantly touches or rubs abgainst Jabba. She eventually is responsible for killing Jabba with the very chain that is her leash onboard his Desert Skiff on Tatooine. Luke Skywalker (Imperial Stormtrooper Disguise) Foil Card  Luke and Han rescue Leia from her cell which leads to danger in the Imperial Trash Compactor. Luckily R2-D2 saves them by shutting down all of the Compactors. They head to the Millennium Falcon and hastily depart the Death Star. Unfortunately, Obi-Wan Kenobi meets his demise at the lightsaber of Darth Vader, his old apprentice. Yoda (Foil Card)  Yoda encounters Luke on planet Dagobah and is frustrated with him. Luke can barely contain his belief when he discovers that this little creature is the 800 hundred year old Jedi Master who will train him in the ways of the "Force" to become a Jedi Knight. My Revenge of the Sith ebay Blog can also be utilized as a checklist for all of the action figures which are very popular after Episode 3.
