The Complete Must Have Star Wars Poster!

.jpg)
Clearly this is a fan-created, photoshopped poster (click on it for a much larger and cooler version), but they did one helluva job on it, I must say. The poster, I believe, first appeared over on a site called MyConfindedSpace, and it includes characters, scenes and fighter ships from all six films. The only central characters I do not see (or, well, versions of those characters) are the older Obi-Wan (played by Alec Guinness) and the young Anakin (played by Jake Lloyd), from The Phantom Menace. All the others appear to be on there, including a pretty cool image of the older Anakin (Hayden Christensen) morphing into Darth Vader. Unfortunately, you won't be able to buy this in stores or online (unless the person who's selling them wants a visit from a slew of lawyers), but it's certainly pretty to look at. Other characters I would've liked to see make an appearance on this already stacked poster: Jawas, Sand People, Lando's Aide (the bald dude with a computer in his head) and, well, how can you leave off Greedo? Check out the poster, and let us know who you think shouldn't have been left off.

Allow me to nerd out a bit -
Great that Jake Lloyd isnt on there and I wish the same for Jar Jar, but bad that Alec Guinness isn't. Kinda strange that they put a huge pic of the snowspeeder dude that found Han but not Wedge.
The whole thing could be cleaned up a bit, but think its a great idea and a pretty good go at it. Maybe the Lucasfilm merch ppl will do an official version to squeeze even more money out of us.

I'll nerd out too ... Lobot was the name of Lando's bald aid with the headphones.

Wouldn't be a surprise if they thought the snowspeeder guy was Wedge...
Perhaps they could have tossed in a younger Palpatine... Bail Organa... Nien Nunb... Shmi Skywalker...

They seem to have put each character only once, that's the reason why there is no anakin kid or old obiwan. Kinda makes sense. And makes of the central morphing vader an even nicer trick.

Die Jar Jar Die!!!! God I hate him...
I would have liked to see a bigger Vader/Anikin morph. And I glanced at the pilot and thought that it was Wedge...perhanps the creator got confused. And I think Han, Chewbacca, and Leia should be bigger...I actually had to go back and make sure Han was there because I didn't remember seeing him.

LOL, that's the desktop wallpaper on my computer. It's by Simon Z - his website has loads of superb Star Wars backdrops. I believe he was recently featured in Star Wars Insider. That's me geeked out for the day.
Click on updates and scroll down to May, 2007.

This is a great poster. I'd love to see Vader's Super Star Destroyer added, but other than that the creator did a great job.

Cool! First of all, if that X-Wing pilot is supposed to be Wedge, then it looks nothing like him. It looks more like Zev (Rogue 2) from ESB. It should be Wedge.
Missing characters: Shmi Skywalker, Watto, Nien Numb. I don't agree with Lobot or Greedo.
I also agree with making Han, Leia, and Chewy bigger.
I can see that he's trying to have each character only once and already has Anaking and Obi-Wan twice, but it would be better with young Anakin, young Palpatine, and old Obi-Wan.

Liam Neeson is the biggest person on the image! A valiant effort for a photoshop novice, but it needs some consistency - some images are sharper than others and have a more filmic look, there are also a few dodgy clone marks, or is that an in-joke?! - attack of the clones lolol.

No doubles is why. I'm sure Ewan's Obi Wan and Hayden were chosen because of their roll in the films. Young Obi Wan and Teen Anakin have more impact and are included more than the others. Sir Alec was only a co-star in IV and a cameo in the last 2. Jake Lloyd could have been replaced with a Muppet. Ok, that last one was an opinion. Sue me.

Pardon me for nerding out on you, but how can you think of yourself as a true Star Wars fan and not know that Lobot is Lando's bald lackey? NO POSTER FOR YOU!
