About this deal

It’s the most famous silent “oof” in cinema history. Eighty two minutes and 21 seconds into the original 1977 Star Wars, a Stormtrooper bangs the top of his head walking through a door on the Death Star. The blooper is easily missed and for decades passed essentially undetected. Then along came the internet. The clumsy villain with the naughty noggin was elevated, like an X-Wing rising from a swamp, into an object of cult obsession. Lucas had taken the case before a succession of judges in an effort to halt Ainsworth's work. He has now been forced to admit defeat – in the UK at least – following the ruling by the UK's highest court for civil cases, which upheld a decision taken at the court of appeal in 2009. This is not the first time Lucas’ likeness is being used to break the fourth wall: In 2002, Hasbro released a 3.75-inch rebel pilot technically named Jorg Sacul but actually made to look like Lucas. Then, in 2006, Lucas was twice shrunk down, first to a stormtrooper and then as his “Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith” character Baron Notluwiski Papanoida.

Dark Troopers have made various appearances in Star Wars Legends material, often with varying designs. They are commonly depicted as dark-armored cybernetically enhanced humans, or in some variations droids, and are used in small numbers by the Empire. Dark Troopers were reintroduced in the current Star Wars canon through the mobile game Star Wars: Commander (2015), and made their live-action debut in the second season of The Mandalorian (2020). This is a massive victory, a total victory, we've already got the champagne out," Ainsworth told the BBC, adding that he had gone to court on a principle and was not going to allow the director to "buy his soul". In Star Wars Rebels, different voice actors have provided the voices of the stormtroopers, including David Acord, Dee Bradley Baker, Steven Blum, Clancy Brown, Robin Atkin Downes, Greg Ellis, Dave Fennoy, Dave Filoni, Tom Kane, Andrew Kishino, Phil LaMarr, Liam O'Brien, Freddie Prinze, Jr., André Sogliuzzo, Stephen Stanton, Greg Weisman, Gary Anthony Williams, and Matthew Wood.

Megablaster heavy assault troopers, more commonly known as heavy troopers, are introduced in The Force Awakens. They carry large FWMB-10 repeating blasters and web gear loaded with extra ammunition. There was one more George Lucas figure for collectors. Lucas made his one and only cameo in the movies in Revenge of the Sith, playing Baron Papanoida. Hasbro made a version of this figure, also in 2006, as part of one of the most interesting toy offerings they ever did. Some of the best scenes in movies tend to happen with an actor or actress adlibbing the scene. Several of those exist in Star Wars, with the most famous one being Han Solo's response to Leia saying she loves him. Then there's the time Mark Hamill remarked, " I can't see a thing in this helmet!," when he was wearing a stormtrooper uniform in A New Hope. The thing is, he really couldn't see anything, and he didn't expect the cameras to be rolling when he blurted it out. Robinson, Joanna (May 4, 2015).
