STAR WARS: 6" McQuarrie Conceptual Customs

10 years ago, long before Hasbro, Kotobukiya, or EFX made merchandise based on Ralph McQuarrie's preproduction conceptual art for Star Wars, Sillof made a series of ten 6 inch figures based on the visionary artwork of Ralph McQuarrie. This spring to celebrate his sites 10 year anniversary Sillof has returned to his initial foray in 6" customs. Prior to that he had worked exclusively in the 3 3/4" scale. Ralph McQuarrie's designs had a huge influence on the final film, and by default countless films since.

C-3PO

An even more art deco inspired version of 3P0.

R2-D2

The earlier designs of R2 had a less streamlined look with more gadgets and extendable arms.

Luka Starkiller

In early versions of the script Luke was a girl with a more pilot-like look. Luka is a name of my design to distinguish her from the Luke figure.

Obi-Han Kenobi

Early versions of the script had a single character providing the roles of both Han and Obi-Wan. Obi-Han is another original title I use.

Chewbacca

Chewbacca's early designs had a much less harrier and much uglier looking alien.
