Bantha Skull’s Updated Top 5 Vintage Collection Wish List

So many of the figures from our previous Top 5 wish lists have been made that we need to refresh our priorities for the Vintage Collection. So here is our list of the top five absolutely most needed Vintage Collection figures. If you disagree with anything on this list, you'd better be prepared to go knuckles, Jack!

The wait for a shirtless Kylo Ren is getting unbearable. Ever since I saw The Last Jedi I have been dying to set up a diorama of the "Force Time" conversation between Kylo and Rey. It's actually begging for a pair of Adventure Sets that interconnect. One could be Kylo's state room, but Hasbro should probably put an Enter the Dragon poster on his wall to explain why on Earth a grown man would be walking around like that. The other would be a section of Ahch-To and could come with a soggy Rey figure.

Regardless of how it's delivered, it’s about dang time that Hasbro has given me a high-waisted shirtless Kylo Ren figure. Please use PhotoReal on the nipples to make sure it really captures the scene correctly.

On screen, Star Wars is relentless. There's no downtime for the characters. You never see anyone take a shower. Well, except for the Han and Chewie shower in Solo, but that was more of a buddy-shower and doesn't count. No one is seen using the toilet. No one is seen chewing bubble gum. C'mon. There's no regular life in Star Wars.

That needs to end. Hasbro simply must give us this figure of Lt. Connix in her comfy flannel downtime jammies. I don't know where this image comes from. I'm assuming it's a behind-the-scenes photo from The Last Jedi, but Hasbro has made "BTS" figures in the past, so there is precedent. I would request that Hasbro make the hamburger slippers removable.

If The Phantom Menace is known for one thing, it's that it features some of the best bathroom humor in Star Wars history. The cornucopia of scatological humor is so full, it has actually divided the community. Some think Jar Jar eating an Eopie fart is the best joke. Others think it is Jar Jar stepping in poop while walking through Mos Espa. It became a battle of the Farts versus the Poops.

Put me in the latter category. I'm a Poop. And I demand a Poop Foot Jar Jar Binks figure to complete my Mos Espa diorama. My only concern is that the sculpted poo on the bottom of the foot might make it difficult to stand, so Hasbro has to be careful here. Also, we tend to shoot for the moon in these whishlists, so we think it should come with the pile of poop as a separate accessory.

I've been furiously campaigning for a new Boba Fett figure for some time now. Did you think I was talking about a new figure of the fully armored adult Boba Fett? Heck no! What I've been campaigning for is a new baby Boba from Episode II, but not just a standard baby Boba. We need one with a head sculpt that captures the moment Boba broke out in gleeful laughter at the prospect of his father killing Obi-Wan Kenobi.

There's nothing cuter than a psychopathic child chortling at the prospective murder of a peace keeper. It warms the cockles, I tell ya. I can't wait to plunk this figure into the cockpit of my Episode II Slave I.

How cool is it that 007 himself was under the helmet of the stormtrooper that Rey Jedi-mind-tricked in The Force Awakens?

Making an honorary figure of Daniel Craig would continue the tradition of the likes of the George Lucas Stormtrooper figure from 2004. That was a George Lucas head sculpt on a CommTech Stormtrooper body. This would obviously need to use the First Order Stormtrooper body, but there's a problem. I can't stand removable helmets. They ruin the aesthetic. So this Daniel Craig honorary figure should feature a non-removable helmet. Trust us, it’s Daniel Craig under there.

Awesome, right? I feel like we’ve really captured the consensus most wanted figures from the community. So how did we do with this list?
