Description
So it's been a quiet week in the Star Wars fandom, out there on the edge of the Dune Sea...Nah, seriously, this movie's looking cool. Still a bit unreal they're actually doing this, and I'm not so sure about the new things coming with this second interpretation of the galaxy far, far away after Endor, but it all seems nifty enough to make a good film. I'll happily see it and not give up my opinion that the prequels weren't that bad (I swear, if the fandom's hatred is enough that they remake or retcon them with new films, I'm going to throw something...).
Felt like digging up some Star Wars ragdolls in celebration of the mood. Boba Fett's always a treat to pose, has a great ragdoll and I'm lucky I have a model for his gun (as misscaled it may be for this model). HK's pretty good, but some glitches with the physics in his feet is a real pain in the neck. And good old Kyle Katarn, a top dog to be sure. This old model's limited with his HL2 base physics rig, iffy proportions of the 2002 model, and lighting on his head texture's a bit wonky, but he's still able enough to manage decent poses. Man, if only there were a decent Darth Revan model available, I could've made this a perfect quad-pose. Or at least a Bastilla one.
Also, Star Wars Legends (new term for the old Expanded Universe) is forever, don't let anyone tell you otherwise.

Can't say I'm particularly familiar with these characters (except Boba Fett)... or the rest of the Star Wars Legends for that matter... but looks like you've done a pretty good job here.
The only problem (and it's more of a nitpick than a real problem) that stood out to me is the way Kyle Katarn's right hand seems to be at an awkward angle. For a lightsaber that appears to be held at a nearly horizontal angle (from this camera angle, anyway), I feel like his hand should be angled up a little more, but doing so would cause it to clip through his wrist brace thingy even more than it already is (or, worse, make it look like he's got a broken wrist). Perhaps, a solution could be if he held the lightsaber closer to his torso, allowing him to bend his right arm more. However, this may just be a case of being limited by the HL2 base physics rig (and I definitely understand pose limitations; see my comments on Samus's pose in "Nemesis Ridley")... or, more likely, a case of me being an idiot who knows nothing about anatomy and posing.
