Today's series of Photo Archive updates continues with the latest figures from The Vintage Collection. Here is the version that fans originally voted for! This all-new version of Quinlan Vos is based on the background "extra" seen in The Phantom Menace that was the inspiration for the comic book origin of one of the most popular Jedi from the Expanded Universe. This outfit perfectly blends the onscreen outfit with the traditional Jedi garb, with a little extra EU added in for good measure.

The real "Phantom Menace" behind pretty much everything in the saga, here's a nice update for Darth Sidious. This figure also takes partial inspiration from EU sources, so there's a lot more than meets the eye with this guy.

Poll
George Lucas has announced he's done making blockbuster feature films after Indiana Jones 5. He states that one of the factors that weighted heavy on the decision was the negative comments made by fans. The Probe Droid is curious what you think about that.
We didn't mean it! Please make more movies!
Boo. I don't like that at all. More movies please.
We got six movies that tell the full tale. I'm happy.
Good for you George! You've earned it.
Thank goodness!
I don't see the irony here.
