Name,Class, Points, Effect/Percent,Fraction ,Speed, Attack
Well, it would be nice if they would just come out with S5 already. However, being a wish list for S6, I guess I am more prone to want to see The Clone Wars come alive.
Here is the Republic:
General Kenobi, Leader, 30, Infiltrate/54%, Republic, 12, Striker
Master Yoda, Leader, 40, Last Command (Move ALL figures on the board -yours and your opponents- the total # of tix each figure can move-can't leave playing area)/46%, Republic, 4, force blast
Master Windu, Leader, Shatter-point (you may look at the bottoms of all of your opponents figures)/54%, Republic, 12, Striker
Anakin Skywalker, Captain, 30, Recover/68%, Republic, 12, striker
Padme, Leader, 30, Rally (Republic)/ 46%, Republic, 6, shooter (medium)
Clone Trooper, Trooper, 10, Attackback (Republic)/15%, Republic, 4, shooter (small)
Clone Commander, 30, Captain, Recruit (X3 Clones)/38%, Republic, 6, shooter (medium)
Arc Trooper, 20, Specialist, Infiltrate/46%, Republic, 8, shooter (medium)
Jet Pack Trooper, 20, Specialist, Vengeance (attacking figure)/38%, Republic, 10, shooter (medium)
Kit Fisto, 30, Warrior, Recruit (Republic)/46%, Republic, 12, striker
Sansee Tin, 30, Warrior, Battle Cry X2/23%,Republic, 12, Striker
Aylaa Secura, 20, Warrior, Last Stand/54%, Republic, 12, Striker
C3P0/R2D2, 10, Specialist, EFFECT/Lucky droids (As long as C3p0 and R2 are alive you may move all of your figures an additional 1 tix each round), SPECIAL-repair (if defeated, as long as you have other figures still in play, C3P0 and R2D2 must go to the defeated pile for 1 turn, then you may return them to your starting line)/38%, Republic, 4, none
Separatists to come later.

Batman. Oh, wait. I guess that probably isn't allowed . Still, if Star Wars Series 6 had Batman as some sort of hyper hard to find, Chinese factory screw up, variant rare, I would spend however much money it took to get him... even if he was made with lead paint ;D. Seriously though, I'd like to see some EU figures already. Durge would rock, as would Asajj Ventress. I'd love me some of the awesome "minor" Jedi from the Clone Wars cartoons like the Wolfman or Ithorian. Oh, and A'sharad Hett (Tusken Jedi) would be so awesome it's not funny. Darth Krayt from the Star Wars: Legacy comics wouldn't be bad. Darth Bane is a good choice as well. Yuuzhan Vong would kick some serious butt with some awesome unique projectiles and their gross-out qualities. Yeah, EU is what I want but I doubt we'll see EU any time soon. I'll be happy with just this one request which has a slightly better chance of happening: Four-Saber General Grievous. I don't care how awkward or stupid it would be, I just want it. Either that, or a Jango Fett flamethrower striker. I theorized it a really long time ago, someone actually made a custom of it (great minds thinking alike since I highly doubt they wandered across an old post from well over a year ago), and now I want a real one. Make it happen, Hasbro! Make it happen...

I'll add just a couple now, maybe a few more later.
Mara Jade Skywalker, Large base, Specialist, 40, Infiltrate 16/26, Jedi, 14, Lightsaber, If you have Luke Skywalker in play, you may attack with both Luke and Mara Jade and count it as one attack.
Luke Skywalker, Large base, Leader, 40, Recover if you have another Jedi in play 18/26, Jedi, 12
Emperor, Large base, Leader, 30, Order 66 (remove one of your opponent's Jedi from play, then stand the Emperor up) 16/26, Both Sith and Empire, lightsaber strike, 12
Asajj Ventress, Medium base, Warrior, 20, Rescue (Sith on your team or opponent has Jedi on his/her team 14/26, Sith, 12, Double lightsaber strike
Aayla Secura, Medium base, Warrior, 20, Attackback x2 for Jedi Jedi 12/26, Jedi, 12, Lightsaber strike
Sith Acolyte, Small base, Warrior, 10, Battlecry 7/26, Sith, 10, Lightsaber strike
I'm still debating with myself whether to make the New Jedi Order a different faction from the old Jedi order. I'd personally love to see some figures from the EU, like Mara Jade and Ventress. I'm wondering if I can incorporate a "Corruption" special power or effect into a figure, something that let's you take control of one of your opponent's figures and then treat it's faction as "Sith" for as long as you control it, though I'm still wondering how I could do that without making a figure too powerful.
I second grievous' request for a 4-saber Grievous. I'd also like to see a Quinlan Vos, and maybe just maybe some really Old Republic figures, like Bane, Kaan, Revan, Malak, the Jedi Exile, etcetera, though they are from such a different period than the other things we've been talking about that they'd be best as a series of their own. I'd doubt that'd happen though, considering that it caters to such a small audience. In order to draw in consumers, Hasbro would have to throw in those Old Republic figures with characters that everyone knows, like Luke and Vader. But then, figures like Bane or Revan would be so isolated and just wouldn't fit in a series with Luke and Leia and Vader, so I doubt we'll ever see figures from that era.
Oh, and I'd like to see a Kyle Katarn, Jaina, Jacen, and pretty much most of the EU. ;D

Oh, and A'sharad Hett (Tusken Jedi) would be so awesome it's not funny. Darth Krayt from the Star Wars: Legacy comics wouldn't be bad. A'sharad Hett is, in the end, Darth Krayt. "I grew in understanding and power and made myself into Darth Krayt. But I was born A'Sharad Hett." ―Darth Krayt to Cade Skywalker I agree with GE that a line of Clone Wars characters would be be cool and likely to sync with the new 3D Animated Series.

A'sharad Hett is, in the end, Darth Krayt. There was a reason that I went and placed them next to each other.

Ok, you are killing me, Grievous! and although my back is hurting like crazy, I'm going to take pictures of A'sharad Hett unmasked (after Order 66, re-joined Tuskens, fought Obi-Wan on Tattoine). Almost done, just needs a little detailed face paint work and brown paint on his saber hilt. Some of us can't wait for Series 6 ;D
I like everyone's wish list, so I won't make a complete one myself.
Darth Kryat, yeah, yeah!
Zam Wessel, Specialist, 20, Asassinate, 35%, Bounty Hunter, large missile
Ok, they won't do Asassinate, change it to Capture, something like that.
I did Jango Flame Thrower striker, not too long ago, thinking of making one or two more.... Check out the vid ;D

Oh, and attacktixman go ahead and compile a list. I'd like to see what you come up with. P.S. I'm glad this thread is taking off. The Star Wars board has been slow in recent weeks.

Great, fun topic, David! Glad you got it started.
I took the spring striker mech out of a Ki-Adi Mundi Gold. It is one of the smallest in overall dimensions striker mechs of all the Attacktix I've taken apart. I then seperated Jango's upper half from lower. Then, with various dremel tool bits, (starting smaller than getting bigger) I bored a hole in the lower half so the mech would fit. For the upper half, it was easier, cause it is hollow, just dremeled a right size hole. Then mixed up some JB Kwik epoxy, put some in the very bottom of the lower half hole and lightly coated inside wall of hole. Then pushed the mech in place in proper position. Let Dry. Then for the upper half, similar process, except you might want to stuff something in there so the epoxy won't get on the arm joints and lock them up. Obviously, join the two halves together.
I'll work on a list and probably should describe how Jango was made in the Customs describe section later.

My Series 6 wishlist includes figures that would round out the remaining universe figures for me that would be necessary to re-enact the major movie battles:
1) Gungan Soldier - small ball launcher (blue), small base, 6 speed, 10 points, Trooper, Republic, Attackback (Republic, 4/26)
2) Naboo Soldier - small missile launcher, small base, 4 speed, 10 points, Trooper, Republic, Shootback (Republic, 6/26)
3) Geonosian - small ball launcher (green), small base, 6 speed, 10 points, Trooper, Separatist, Stun (Jedi, 5/26)
4) Crab Droid - medium missile launcher, medium base, 20 points, Specialist, Droid Army, Recover (Droid Army, 4/26)
5) Weequay - force pike striker, small base, 8 speed, 10 points, Trooper, Bounty Hunter, Recruit (Bounty Hunter, 6/26)
6) Ewok Trooper - Wicket repaint, 8 speed, 10 points, Trooper, Ewok, Rally (Ewok, 4/26)
7) Saesee Tiin - lightsaber striker, medium base, 12 points, 30 points, Leader, Jedi, Attackback (Jedi, 16/26)
8) 4-LOM - medium missile launcher, large base, 4 speed, 30 points, Specialist, Bounty Hunter, Capture (4/26); effect backplate: "If you have Zuckuss in play on your squad, at the start of your turn, you may look at the base of one of your opponent's figures." (I view this as triggering the "Findsman" aspect of the Gand)
9) OOM-9 (head battle droid in EpI) - small missile launcher, medium base, 4 speed, 20 points, Captain, Droid Army, Recruit (Battle Droid x2, 8/26)
10) Zam Wesell - medium missile launcher, medium base, 8 speed, 30 points, Specialist, Bounty Hunter, Infiltrate (Bounty Hunter, 10/26); effect: "Flee - If you have Jango Fett in play on your squad, this figure may move up to 6 Tix after your opponent has finished their move phase." (I think of this reflecting her trying to escape the wrath of Jango Fett as she led Obi-Wan and Anakin on the chase through Coruscant's skyways - and it's a way to make the crappily costed Jango Fett from Series 2 a bit more valuable)
11) Anakin Skywalker (in EpII Jar'Kai stance) - dual lightsaber (now with double the petulance!), medium base, 10 speed, 20 points, Warrior, Jedi, Vengeance (Separatist, 14/26)
12) Padme Amidala (in Geonosis arena garb) - medium missile launcher, medium base, 8 speed, 30 points, Republic, Captain, Rescue (Jedi, 16/26)
13) Aayla Secura - dual lightsaber (yes, I like that twist on her character in Battlefront II), medium base, 12 speed, 20 points, Jedi, Specialist, Swap (opponent's backups, 8/26) (I view this special power as reflecting her stealthiness)
14) General Veers - medium missile launcher, large base, 6 speed, 30 points, Leader, Empire, Evade (Empire, 10/26)
15) Poggle the Lesser - staff striker, large base, 14 speed, 30 points, Leader, Separatist, Charge (3x Troopers, 8/26)
16) Obi-Wan Kenobi (as Padawan) - lightsaber striker, medium base, 12 speed, 30 points, Warrior, Jedi, Recruit (Anakin Skywalker, 16/26)
17) Bib Fortuna - Tion Medon repaint with new head mold, large base, 12 speed, 40 points, Leader, Bounty Hunter, Rally (Bounty Hunter, 18/26)
18) Jar-Jar Binks (oh yeah, I went there) - small ball launcher, small base, 4 speed, 10 points, Specialist, Republic, Sacrifice (if white: Republic, 18/26; if black: opponent's Droid Army, 8/26) (I figure that Sacrifice captures Jar-Jar's bumbling nature that often costs his friends, but that every so often has a chance of really hurting a very specific sort of EpI opponent - though wouldn't it be a kick if Jar-Jar took out General Grievous?)
Starter set:
Luke Skywalker on Bespin - lightsaber striker, medium base, 12 speed, 20 points, Captain, Rebel, Rescue (12/26)
Princess Leia on Bespin - medium missile launcher, medium base, 6 speed, 30 points, Leader, Rebel, Attackback (Rebel, 16/26)
Darth Vader - Starter 3 Vader reissue, 12 speed, 30 points, Leader, Empire, Force Push (opponent's figure 10 Tix, 20/26)
Admiral Piett - Imperial Officer reissue with medium missile, 6 speed, 20 points, Captain, Empire, Vengeance (Rebel, 10/26)
Megas:
X-Wing - base akin to Republic Gunship, 6 speed, 60 points, Mega, Recruit (X-Wing Pilot, 18/26) / X-Wing Pilot - SW S3 X-Wing Pilot reissue, Recover (Rebel, 8/26)
TIE Fighter - base akin to Republic Gunship, 4 speed, 50 points, Mega, Recruit (TIE Pilot, 14/26) / TIE Pilot - SW S3 TIE Pilot reissue, Attackback (Empire, 12/26)

Ok, I really don't need to make a list here, YodaBreaker, just finished it off for me! Had a lot similiar things in my head and he did way better on the powers/effects, points than I would have: Flying G's, Gungans, Obi as Pad, etc., all fantastic!
Just what is a medium missile? Am I making a mistake when I refer to large and small missiles? Is there something in terms of actual bullet size in between? Or is it the launcher? I mean I'm not referring to Tourney Venom type which I know is different.
Ok, I'll throw out one more and let you guys point him please:
Zett Jukassa the young Padawan who saved Bail Organa and did pretty good deflecting Troopers blasts with his saber until he finally got hit.

Before the TFs came out, what I'm now calling the "medium" missile is what we often called a "large" missile (with no "medium" to be found); we called Force blasts just that. However, with the advent of Prime's honkin' missile, our terminology shifted so that the missile launched by Starter 4 Greedo, Starter 5 Chewie, and the like are now "medium" missiles, with robot Super Optimus Prime, Megatron, and the like being classed as "large" missiles. I'm glad you liked my list; it was fun thinking about it, and it was especially interesting to think about a Jar-Jar that would represent the character faithfully but still be able to see some play. Once I thought of the Sacrifice power, I knew that would fit his ineptitude to a T As far as Zett Jukassa goes, I might think a lightsaber striker, small based, 12 speed, 20 point, Warrior, Jedi, Evade (Republic, 10/26) might work to reflect how he helped Bail avoid being forcibly escorted from the Jedi Temple grounds - and how he's almost more valuable to the Republic dead than alive (hence the small base). An alternative could be Rescue (10/26), as Recover seems to be too powerful for him. Another interesting possibility would be Sacrifice (opponent's Clone Trooper, 16/26), inasmuch as he kept feeding off the blaster bolts, but he'd require a specific sort of opponent to stay in the game (hence his high special power probability). Hmm...with a special power like that, I would probably nickname that figure "RadarBreaker", given Radar's fondness for clones

Yeah, those all sound awesome. Great figure concepts YB! How about Jocasta Nu? It's hard to imagine her with a lightsaber, but she could have a useful effect at 20 points for a Jedi team. I'd also like to see Cin Drallig, though since he's a Battlemaster (in the Star Wars sense, not attacktix) he'd have to have one heck of a powerful and innovative strike.
Oh, and I love the idea of figures that sacrifice your opponent's figures. It's somewhat similar to the Order 66 power I gave my concept Emperor: Remove one of your opponent's Jedi from play. Then, stand the Emperor up.

I'd also like to see Cin Drallig, though since he's a Battlemaster (in the Star Wars sense, not attacktix) he'd have to have one heck of a powerful and innovative strike. I'm glad you like 'em, Turkish Van Cat! An interesting themed effect for Jocasta Nu would be something like what I'd envisioned for 4-LOM. She's a persnickety Jedi librarian who's insistent that things that aren't in the archives don't exist. So what about something like this: "'It Doesn't Exist!' - If you have a Jedi in play, at the start of your turn, you may look at the special power window of one of your opponent's figures. If black, remove that figure from play. If white, remove this figure from play." If she had an effect like that, I'd see her having no attack whatsoever. I also want to limit it to only activating when Jedi are in play; the "Remove Jocasta Nu if white" clause is to prevent her from being too overpowered and able to remove really powerful figures herself - she'd need to rely on better fighters to do that for her, given her wimpy librarian nature. Of course, it just might be wroth 20 points to check the special power window of a high-percentage Recover figure, and it'd also be a fun figure for someone who likes to gamble! I think I'd give her a large base and a special of Recruit (Jedi, 6/26). I'd see Cin Drallig as having an effect akin to Wolverine's "Rage" to mimic his skill with a lightsaber. "If you have a Jedi in play, once per turn this figure may move up to six Tix and attack only after it defeats an opponent's figure." This is a more powerful version of that effect, which would probably make Cin Drallig 40 points - but it'd get around the need to have some sort of tremendously innovative striking mechanism. Give him the rest of M1 Prodderine's stats, and he'd probably be an interesting figure. Indeed; I figured I'd just work with the existing mechanics with respect to special powers. However, the important difference is that with Order 66, the Emperor would get to stand up where he fell, which makes his power either like a Recover+ or a Vanquish that operates off specific figures in play, rather than any that are already defeated. Thus, I think your idea captures the way Darth Sidious feeds off the Force and its users nicely. With Jar-Jar's Sacrifice, if his window were black, he'd likely end up square in the middle of the opponent's Droid Army formation, where he could be blasted into oblivion on the opponent's next turn - unless he turned up black again I liked the idea of having Jar-Jar plopping himself in the midst of the enemy, even after doing something potentially heroic. That's what I remember of his battle in EpI
