Check out the new Burger King stuff at TFN. Lots to look at, including some new Grievous renders.

Palpatine looks great :D

I like Grievous's narrow-faced look.

Just a point of interest, but what planet is Grievous on in that pic? Naboo?

I guess the 'spines' on the boga will slick down like a lizard's when it moves. Aussies familiar with the Frilled-Neck lizard know what I mean...

Palpatine looks odd. Probably just the lighting for the marketing shot but, if I didn't know it was McDiarmad, I would think he was played by a different actor. Maybe it's just that he's older and so the make-up fills him out even more. But it's also that the make-up is far more defined. It looks more controlled, less detailed but more solid.

Like the difference between Freddy in Elm Street 3 and Elm Street 5.

The Emporer's makeup is made to look best under specific lighting conditions. These marketing shots are bound to look less than spectacular.

Prolly just the lighting. The picture of him on the action figure packaging looks less defined.

I think he looks awesome, I can see where people are coming from in thinking he looks a little odd...

It's because his entire face is illuminated and thus he's more defined.

I don't think that will be an issue in the film

It does look slightly odd. Plain white with red ringed eyes. Think Palpy needs to get some sleep.

I'm sitll not sure how I feel about Obi-Wan riding a lizard and Yoda riding a big dragonfly. Potentially huge cheese factor.

I guess you find stormtroopers riding Dewbacks and rebels riding Taun-Tauns cheezy as well? :?

well if VT-16's statement is taken literally then yes that does sound cheezy, i think the cheese factor has been in the dialog

I hate burger king. Why the heck didn't Wendy's bid for the stuff this time? At least it won't be the Taco Bell/KFC/ whatever TPM fiasco.









Do you wanna VADER SIZE your menu?

Yeah, I noticed, maybe they forgot the cover it with excess fur, or maybe it's trendy on Kasyyyk to trim your sleeves.

Fuuuuck we're SCREWED. :weed:

Btw I was able to find the pic of Anakin to fix the image a bit, although it's not as hi-res as the original.
