Bespin Guard.

I think Emperor/Emperor Hologram (oh I'm going to be mad if it is the Stitch version of the Emperor Holigram from SWW, btw) but since that is take I'll go with this since it is ESB related.

I agree that it will be Obi-Wan but I think the Ghost of Obi-Wan will be the variant of the chaser.

You know what would be a good one? C3P0 and a variant of C3P0 with his arms and legs blown off. lol

I'm gonna go out on a limb and say that the Chaser will be Hans Solo in carbonite. That could be kinda cool.

Oh man, I think you nailed it. To me, the only 2 characters that make sense for the chaser are Obi-Wan Kenobi and the Emperor. Now the Emperor only appeared in ESB in hologram form. So, your idea of the variant being Stitch as the Emperor is plausible... Gah!

RMThompson
01-13-2011, 12:41 PM
Did we get info somewhere that there WAS a variant and that it WAS ESB?

Ghost Host
01-13-2011, 12:43 PM
Yes we did hear that the Chaser would have a variant. Originally, this set was supposed to be based on Empire Strikes Back due to the 30th anniversary last year. All the figures appeared in ESB. Luke's garb is from ESB and Leia's hair is her hairstyle while in Bespin. So it makes sense that the chaser is from ESB.

However, since the figure is a year later, they probably chose Jar Jar just to cause me to curse like a smuggler in Mos Eisley.

If you look at the case closely, to the left of Vader there is a ESB logo.

To strengthen the argument, apparently the Stitch as Emperor Holigram figure was LE5000 but sold out quickly. I didn't get it but wish I did as a trader.

When I think of the Empire Strikes Back the Imperial Walkers (At-At or whatever it's called) always come to mind first so, my guess is the chaser is an Imperial Walker and the variant is the smaller walker.

This is one variant I could get on board with! I personally think the chaser will be Emperor Palpatine.

I think RickP83 will walk away with the title for his Tauntaun guess, but I'm going to pick from out of left field.

My chaser guess: Lobot. I can't figure out how he'd work as a variant, but he did play a pretty integral part in Empire, and he was a badge logo at CV. So yeah, I'm guessing Lobot. :)

Dozy
01-13-2011, 02:25 PM
Fode and Beed, the two headed announcer of the Boonta's Eve Race in the Phantom Menace.

(Although I feel it will probably Queen Amelia - she wore alot of outfits, alot of varients. Or an Ewok as everyone loves ewoks and you can change the colour of the fur and head cloth things to make varients. Also they're probably more common characters however still unusual to be more of a chaser.)

SirScott99
01-13-2011, 06:14 PM
Now when you say it is a varient, do you mean it is a varient of another figure already in the series such as 3 luke chasers with different costumes PLUS the one already known about? Or a varient of just the chaser itself such as with the animation series? Because if its my first question then I'd say it's definitely some sort of a Luke uniform

Ghost Host
01-13-2011, 06:16 PM
From what we've heard, the variant is of just the chaser.

SirScott99
01-13-2011, 06:23 PM
Which actually confuses me because from what I can think off the top of my head, Luke would be the only logical explaination but he is already confirmed. Unless they do Hologram Palpatine and In Person Palpatine

But if I were to bet on this, I would have to put my money on ObiWan/Ghost ObiWan. Seems like the more appropriate choice for the series theme.

Either way, it won't be Jar Jar. This is ESB, and as such, it wouldn't have the terrible prequels.... they'll be a set of their own... and when that set comes out, the first thing I'm doing is removing anakins arms :rofl:

ITA, that's ESB themed too.

The more guesses there are, the more I'm realizing that I don't care what the Chaser is. I just want one :cry:

The only thing I'm hoping it's not is an ugnaught. I hate those aliens...

I hope it's another astromech droid. If I have to pick one specifically, then I guess R5-D4.

Wampa ; )

... The Wampa would have to have a red spot in the socket of his arm in order to be accurate. That way, when luke removes it, it will be an accurate depiction of the Wampa in the movie. Otherwise, it's just any ol boring wampa :lol:

Why do I have this weird feeling that I'll be disappointed with the Chaser.

As long as it's not an Ugnaught, I will be fine... have faith... have faith :pet:

I hope that the Ghost Obi wan will be shown soon, if that is the variation. Otherwise, It's struck down obi, which might be a little flat...

I'm disappointed. But don't worry, I'm willing to bet that the variant is "Ghost Obi Wan" (a la Clear). Well, they better not have an Obi Wan when they release the Episode IV vinylmation.

I agree... but he's the right chaser for the set... he needed to be represented...

Sledge just confirmed that variant is Ghost Obi

Ah, Robot Chicken. Now that's the Star Wars I like!

If that was the chaser, I would have had to own it. :rofl:

here's a link to a different shot of it. This Obi-wan looks slightly different but maybe it's the lighting.

Me too :look: Is it just me, or does this ObiWan kind of look like a mix between Statler and Waldorf from the Muppet show?

Hi everyone,

I've never heard of a variant before. I know there's only one chaser in a case...but if you buy a sealed case are you also guaranteed to get the Ghost Obi-Wan variant?


Thanks in advance!

i think variants, if they do it like Kid Robot, sometimes are 1 in every 5 tray's, or if u look at it, 1 in every Shipped Box, if the box contains 5 tray's, 1 tray carries the variant. now Disney may be doing it wrong, but that's how it worked for some other vinyl figures (other than vinylmation),

chaser 1 in every tray, variants, 1 in every box (5 trays per box)

"Ghost" Obi-Wan just looks so cold and frozen.

He looks like he needs to be defrosted. LOL.

I like all the guesses though. So many more options that never crossed my mind. Can see this having many more series to come in the future. Good news for Sw fans.

So, my question to everyone is: What was your first thought when you saw the chaser? Mine, since it was fairly late and I was starting to nod off was "Uncle Owen? What?!?! It can't be. Oh, its Obi Wan Kenobi not in his robe."

I must have been tired...Uncle Veru and Aunt Owen?

First thought is man, Obi-Wan looks so old, sad, and depressed...
