Who iare your favourite Star Wars characters? It doesn't have to be one of the main cast from the films, it could be a side character in the background of the films, someone from the expanded universe, or from a game such as KOTOR.
My personal favourites include: Boba Fett, Boushh and the Emperors Imperial Guard.
I also found out there is now a Star Wars Wiki. How cool is that! Amusingly called Wookiepedia
I've also discovered they have been adding a lot of extra areas to the official starwars.com lately, including a section called cargo bay which even has an archive of Star Wars figures with detailed shots of the original cards they came on. Pretty cool resource for any collector.
