Star Wars Unleashed Action FiguresPosted Jul-03-08 14:55:12 PDT Updated Jul-04-08 22:56:56 PDT Star Wars Unleashed Action Figures
The Star Wars Unleashed line consists of powerful and meticulously designed artist-interpreted 7 inch scale action figures capturing some of the most compelling Star Wars characters in their rawest and most electrifying moments. These figures are best for display purposes and each one comes with a small diorama display base. This line is aimed more at the serious
collector of Star Wars items. The continued success of this line has
indeed paved the way for future releases at this point in time. 2002 Unleashed:

Feel free to utilize this list to complete your collection as one can find these items on ebay quite often. I have randomly selected 10 sealed characters from my personal collection and have them here with a brief description about them as well. Do enjoy the Blog: Clone Trooper (Red) 2004 The red marking of a
Clonetrooper indicates that of a Clone Commander who commands companies
of 144 troops (4 Platoons). All Clonetroopers were genetically molded
after Jango Fett the Bounty Hunter. We see Red striped Clonetroopers
throughout Attack of the Clones, Episode II and Revenge of the Sith,
Episode III. Clone Trooper (White) 2004 Clone Trooper comes with a Black Rifle. Standard basic Clonetrooper born on planet Kamino genetically created for the Republic by Jedi Master Sifo-Dyas. The Battle of Geonosis was the first deployment of the Clonetroopers as well as the start of the Clone Wars. Starting with rescuing what was left of Mace Windu's Jedi Strike Team on Geonosis, They fought many a Geonosian Warrior forcing their retreat. Soon they were spread throughout the galaxy to engage the Confederacy of Independent Systems. Armies were led by Jedi Knight Generals accompanied by Clone Commanders designated by the Yellow striping on their armor. Many clone commanders were placed into the ARC Training Program and became ARC Commanders, this allowed them to specialize their armor and add to their standard kit. They took names to replace their numerical designations. Some of the most accomplished and superb examples of the ARC Commander program:
They eventually carried out
"Executive Oder 66" by Supreme Chancellor Palpatine which made them
turn on their Commanding Generals. This brought and end to the Jedi
Knights and the Republic as Supreme Chanancellor Palpatine proclaimed
the birth of the Galactic Empire. The Clonetroopers became the Imperial
Stormtroopers Corps.
Darth Maul 2002 Darth Maul was a Zabrak from Iridonia. As
a young infant, he was kidnapped by Darth Sidious from his parents and
trained in the ways of the Sith. An apprentice to Darth Sidious who was
used as an Enforcer to deal with the Black Sun and its members, hunt
Jedi amongst many other tasks.
Darth Vader 2002 Born Anakin Skywalker, son of Shimi Skywalker, father unknown. Freedom from the slavery of Watto the Toydarian dealer of junk on planet Tatooine from Jedi Master Qui-Gon Jinn over a bet on Anakin winning a Pod Race. Obi-Wan Kenobi's Padawan learner with a Midi Chlorian count higher than that of Jedi Master Yoda himself. Seduced to the dark side of the "Force" by Supreme Chancellor Palpatine/Darth Sidious. There is a variation of a Red carded Darth Vader of this item. Darth Vader 2002 Darth Vader tries to seduce his son, Luke
Skywalker to the dark side of the "Force" by stating that only
together, they can bring an end to the useless conflict between them
and together, they can rule the Universe as father and son. Some
considered Vaders words as treason against the Empire, with no backbone
like spineless jellyfish, all they did was what they did absolutely
best, nothing for who would mention any ill words towards this Dark
Lord of the Sith? Darth Sidious Once an apprentice of Darth Plagueis the Wise who knew the ways to restore the dead back to life by manipulating the Midi Chlorians in a body. Darth Sidious killed him in his sleep and secretly obtained the knowledge for himself. Little did the Republic suspect that Supreme Chancellor Palpatine was Darth Sidious orchestrating the wars behind the scenes. It is the knowledge of Padme Skywalkers
inevitable death that Sidious utilizes to sway the young Anakin
Skywalker to the dark side. Sidious as Supreme Chancellor Palpatine
reveals that his knowledge can save Padme. Anakin chooses joining the
dark side for saving Padme. Love indeed was his motivation, all though
he did not realize his mistake for in a fit of rage, he applied a
"Force Choke Hold" on Padme at planet Mustafar and made a bold wrong
statement alluding that she was having an affair with Obi-Wan Kenobi. Ig-88 Bounty Hunter 2004 An escaped Assassin Droid
who with his bretheren turn on the very scientists that create him by
killing all of them. His exploits impress Lord Darth Vader who sends a
message for IG-88 to join Vader on board the "Executor", Vaders
Flagship Imperial Destroyer along with several other Bounty Hunters in
the Empire Strikes Back to find the Millennium Falcon and its occupants.
Senator Padme Amidala 2002 Padme comes with Black Rifle, Chain and Brown Base. She was a young Queen of Planet Naboo who soon became involved in having to deal with Viceroy Nute Gunray of the Trade Federation who blockaded her planet. After the Battle of Naboo, Queen Amidala became Senator Padme Amidala of Naboo. She fell in love with a young Anakin Skywalker and the tow eventually married even though this was forbidden for the Jedi to marry. Mother of the twins: Luke and Leia Skywalker, she died on planet Alderaan for once she found out that the love of her life, Anakin Skywalker became Darth Vader, she gave up the will to live. Her last word to Obi-Wan Kenobi were that she still felt good in Anakin. This item was recalled initially by the
manufacturer since a lot of parents complained that the breasts on the
figure were rather large or perke. Hence, the nickname by collectors:
"Perky Padme". This item is still currently available on the market
and averages around $20.00 to $30.00 for a Mint in Package (MIP) action
Figure. Tusken Raider (Sandpeople) 2004 The Raiders are said to be of an ancient race who at some point in history possessed advanced technology. When Tatooine had lush jungles and oceans, they were a major power in the region. The creators of the Star Forge, the Rakata, conquered the Tuskens, and mined their planet exhaustively. After a virulent disease weakened the Rakata, the Sand People saw the opportunity to strike by sabotaging their fleet. In retalliation, the Rakata bombarded the planet and Tatooine became a desert world as we know of it now. The Tuskens surrvived by hiding in a
system of artificial caverns carved by the archaic Tusken race. They
were isolated and trapped on the barren planet. Once the "Builders"
(the Rakata) lost power, the Tuskens abandoned most technologies,
poisoned their natural resources to prevent other species from having
an interest in their planet and conquering it. However, the planet was
conquered many times over the following millennia, though the
conquerors frequently left it after a short period of time due to the
atomic instability of the metals in the planet. The Sand People are
known to be easily frightened, but then return in greater numbers. Asajj Ventress 2005 Ventress originally came from the planet
Rattatak where her parents were farmers. Warlord Osika Kirske whipped
her a lot which made her cold hearted. He killed her parents when she
was at a young age. She barely escaped. She encountered Jedi Master, Ky
Narec, who crashed on Rattatak. Kirske hunted them both so they joined
forces and Narec trained her in the ways of the "Force". Kirske killed
Narec before she could become a full fledged Jedi Knight. She was very
skilled as any Jedi and because she could not control her anger, she
developed a hatred for the Jedi and was mad that her mentor abandoned
her all though he was killed.
