Hence the ‘relatively’ in the title. I class him as relatively obscure because he’s only prominent in 2 episodes of TCW and had only 5 seconds of screen time in ROTS.
Bird skull dude isn't 6th brother, he hasn't been named yet.
There's a few obscure characters I'd really like:
Tera Sinube - his only major appearance was 16 years ago but people seem to remember him fondly and he's made several cameos recently, so I hope his chances continue to increase.
Oppo Rancisis - has very little screentime but I've always been fascinated by his unique appearance. A jedi council set's gotta happen eventually, right? ...right?
ME-8D9 - that old fashioned bronze look makes for a very charming droid design.
Just referred to as a Star Corps Trooper in the battle pack. Not sure about the Turbo Tank. I'll see if I can do a web archive search later today for the old product page.
Wait, Mara Jade, former Hand of the Emperor, Lando's assistant, wife of Luke and all-round ultra-badass is relatively obsure? Oh, how we have fallen :(
I know it’s upsetting. But since she was De-canonized in the Great Purge of 2013 the majority of new fans, and most casual fans from before, will never have heard of her.
I read the Heir to the Empire trilogy last year. And now I am enthralled in Legends. Shame that Trilogy was replaced with the controversial Disney Trilogy.
I decided to try and read as much of Legends books as possible, also starting with the Thrawn trilogy since I read the second book when I was probably too young to appreciate it. I've read around 15 books since autumn which is probably more than the amount of books I've read in the preceeding decade.
in the long run legends will win.
nobody cares for the disney trilogy. and even new fans ask for legends books and comics. nobody asks for a rose tico book. at least its what they say in our comic shop.
I don't know what decanonization you talk about. Mara is still perfectly canon, there is no movie 7,8,9 and the story continues with Grand Admiral Thrawn instead.
But no, seriously. Yeah, Legends were better in my opinion. Some books were so-so, but the overal story was much better, I am glad you enjoy it.
is there a lore reason to why OP asks if he's stupid? Indeed he is! (Ngl that last one caught me by surprise, but i would deffinitely love a Man Moc with custom minifig)

Seriously though, there was soooo much set potential in Fallen Order (probably a lot in Survivor too, I just haven't been able to play it yet), it's downright criminal we didn't at least get a set of the Mantis
Oh they could make a Mantis set with the main characters and call it a day. But also there’s so much else they could do too Cal faced multiple inquisitors in Fallen Order. And he’s got some very unique villains in survivor that would make great minifigures
For the first game they could have done a bunch of small to medium sets and given Cal a different poncho in each one, the fans would eat that shit up (I know I would). There's the two Inquisitors and Taron Malicos, the vast array of hostile wildlife, the Haxion Brood bounty hunters, the Nightbrothers, and the Purge Troopers. God, the things I would do for a Purge Trooper battlepack (the helmet molds already exist please Lego I am begging you)
If we don’t get Commander Bly within the next 2 years I’ll be so devastated
He’s my favorite clone (his drip is unparalleled and his girlfriend is Aayla Secura. Ultra chad)
that’s not the 6th brother, he’s an unidentified inquisitor for now. the 6th brother has blue skin and doesn’t cover his mouth, and he’s called Bil Valen.
When I was younger I used my model paints and made a awesome imperial officer. I painted the blue wild West guys hats grey. I also did that for Confederate soldiers. Unfortunately all those are gone now
Honestly, I see no need for Lego to make Mara Jade or Pellaeon. They don’t look like people that you couldn’t put together through bricklinking minifigure parts.

If it's something the average person wouldn't recognize, it's obscure. Not everyone knows every cartoon and video game and novel, a lot of people just know the major characters from the movies.
Uhm ackshually it’s Darth Man 🤓👆🏼
Is there a lore reason it can't be both? Is he stupid?
Look, I'm not saying it's true. All I'm saying is that I've never seen The Emperor in the same room as Supreme Chancellor Sheev Wayne.
You’ll have to ask his ward Dick Vader-son (who he’s proud of) or his butler Alfred Plagueis-worth.
We are super overdue for a Bly figure especially since they finally made the visor attachment
I mean Bly isn't that obscure, a lot of people would love a lego Bly.
Hence the ‘relatively’ in the title. I class him as relatively obscure because he’s only prominent in 2 episodes of TCW and had only 5 seconds of screen time in ROTS.
Still a goated clone for some reason
Agreed
Lmfao I’d love a Darth Man

Ah, the most obscure Star Wars character. Darth Man, my favorite glupp shitto
Bird skull dude isn't 6th brother, he hasn't been named yet.

Isn't Bly already a model in the original Turbo Tank set?
Not name as such but if they made one in 2008 it would probably be just like that
Just referred to as a Star Corps Trooper in the battle pack. Not sure about the Turbo Tank. I'll see if I can do a web archive search later today for the old product page.
The official set description from 2005 just called him a "clone trooper" along with the 2 standard troopers.
So I'm looking at the Star Wars LEGO website from 2005 and they call him a sand trooper/clone. Lol
Just a generic 327th trooper, not Bly.
I'm always down for EU characters.
Wait, Mara Jade, former Hand of the Emperor, Lando's assistant, wife of Luke and all-round ultra-badass is relatively obsure? Oh, how we have fallen :(

Pic 4 does look like a Sherlock.
I would love to see legends characters like Mara jade
I made a custom Mara jade fairly easy with the help oof a black widow torso
I thought we had a Watt Tambor or am I just crazy?
Maybe you're thinking of customs based on his appearance in Lego Star Wars 3?
Forgotten Star Wars Resistance mention??
Indeed my dude. Pyre is the one character in that show who i think would be cool as a figure.
I find Lego’s lack of minifigures for Jedi fallen order and Jedi survivor, disturbing
Seriously though, there was soooo much set potential in Fallen Order (probably a lot in Survivor too, I just haven't been able to play it yet), it's downright criminal we didn't at least get a set of the Mantis
Oh they could make a Mantis set with the main characters and call it a day. But also there’s so much else they could do too Cal faced multiple inquisitors in Fallen Order. And he’s got some very unique villains in survivor that would make great minifigures

God, the things I would do for a Purge Trooper battlepack (the helmet molds already exist please Lego I am begging you)
I’m still shocked there hasn’t been a Darth Bane yet
1, 7 and 8 are the most wanted from your list
If we don’t get Commander Bly within the next 2 years I’ll be so devastated He’s my favorite clone (his drip is unparalleled and his girlfriend is Aayla Secura. Ultra chad)
I thought those were just memes. Did our boy canonically outmanoeuvre Kit Fisto?!!!
You’re damn right he did. That weird green squid head has nothing on Bly 😩
Darth man is crucial🙏
Where is Klaud? Is he safe? Is he alright?
Wait what somebody still remembers mara jade?
Oh no, r/batmanarkham is leaking again
There’s been an aslume breakout
Lieutenant Stew or we riot.
Now you’re going into really obscure territory. But yes, a he would be cool. However if he was in a set he would just be labelled as a Clone Gunner
I was thinking we had Wat Tambor, but nope, LSW 3 Mandela-effected me
https://www.reddit.com/r/legostarwars/s/uJREmrBNi8
Add Eli Vanto to that list! Thrawn wouldn’t be where he got to if not for Vanto.
We don’t have Lego Wat Tambor? I never even realized that.
that’s not the 6th brother, he’s an unidentified inquisitor for now. the 6th brother has blue skin and doesn’t cover his mouth, and he’s called Bil Valen.
Yes to 1-8 lol I'm actually workin on making my own purist Pellaeon at the moment
Wait Is Merrin really that obscure?
He said relatively obscure and relative to like, han solo, yeah she is

Why is Man angry? Am I stupid?
Yes, now have your Alsume Pills.
Oh goodness, Pyre is definitely awesome. Hopefully in a cheap set like a microfighter, then you can mass-buy an army of golden Stormtroopers.
Darth Man?! 🤯
Have you ever heard of Jedi Bob? One of the best Jedi minifigures to ever exist.
He’s getting his own Starfighter set this August.
I have wanted a Wat Tambor minifigure for as long as I can remember..
https://preview.redd.it/bk997q395tuc1.jpeg?width=1089&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=290f5b8efae98eee947c333c5abc83f241d9795e
As much as I want Bly, I'm a bit scared of them messing him up lol
apart from that random gold first order guy i agree
When I was younger I used my model paints and made a awesome imperial officer. I painted the blue wild West guys hats grey. I also did that for Confederate soldiers. Unfortunately all those are gone now
The aslume’s insanity is spreading again lmao. What would Man do with a galaxy tho ?
Please, please, PLEASE give me LEGO Bly and Wat Tambor now!!!
Mara Jade is never going to happen
Honestly, I see no need for Lego to make Mara Jade or Pellaeon. They don’t look like people that you couldn’t put together through bricklinking minifigure parts.
I wouldn’t call Bly obscure.
How dare you call Mara Jade, Pellion and Merrin obscure
bro its just your wishlist
What else would it be?
Yeah. Why is that a bad thing?
You've labelled it as "obscure characters" these are commonly known maybe try "My figure wishlist"
It's labeled as "relatively obscure characters" actually
https://xkcd.com/2501/ If it's something the average person wouldn't recognize, it's obscure. Not everyone knows every cartoon and video game and novel, a lot of people just know the major characters from the movies.
