DARTH FABIO

This is an upcoming ANAKIN figure based on the kickass CLONE WARS cartoon. Actually several of the cartoon versions are making their way over to the "realistic" world via the toyline. Most aren't working very well (Yoda and "Hammerhead Jedi"), but I'm hoping for a SAESEE TIIN in Clone Armor & Helmet!!! If you haven't seen this animated series, fucking rent them today - they are what you wanted the Prequels to be! AWESOME STUFF! Disc 1, Disc 2.

Anyway, that's not the point of this post.... the point of this post is the Anakin figure... or more specifically, the artwork on the Anakin figure CARD. Anyone else feel mildly uncomfortable here? I'm not one proned to ridiculous homophobia, so don't even try playing that card. It's just.... well, disturbing. Maybe its the Hayden head photoshopped onto Fabio's body, sans neck....??

On a plus note, I now know what to get Mr Legs for Christmas!

I agree. Tiin would make an awesome figure.

You've no doubt heard of the upcoming Clone Wars animated series - all CG bonanza.

I guess Lucas thought he should f-up that series as well.

though his head looks cut and paste coz of the angle his body looks like it did in the movie. he gained 20 lbs of pure muscle for the movie.
