Video Games & Action Figures

TITLE:	Imperial Commando
CREATOR(S):	LucasArts
PUBLISHER:	LucasArts
DESCRIPTION:	Planned video game
SUMMARY:	Star Wars: Imperial Commando is the canceled sequel to the 2005 video game Star Wars: Republic Commando. The sequel was already planned during development of Republic Commando, but it was canceled in 2004 with several concept paintings completed. The game was to focus on Imperial commando soldiers. The game was to focus on the Imperial Commando units, the Empire'selite ground combat troops. Part of the combat was to be against the Rebel Alliance. The game was to be a sequel to the 2005 first-person shooter video game Star Wars: Republic Commando, which focused on the clone commando unit Delta Squad. The sole confirmed LucasArts crew on the sequel project was Greg Knight, who drew concept sketches and paintings for the game from 2003 to its cancellation in 2004.[1] At that time, design documents had been completed. The LucasArts documentary book Rogue Leaders: The Story of LucasArts is the only source to confirm details about the project. LucasArts developer Brett Douville commented in 2014 that the game was one of two competing designs for the sequel, along with Star Wars: Rebel Commando, which was to follow up on Sev's story. The team had been unsure of getting to make a sequel, as sales projections for Star Wars: Republic Commando had been low. *Although there is a whole Star Wars: Republic Commando* multimedia series, Star Wars: Imperial Commando was not confirmed to be a continuation of the story of Delta Squad.**

TITLE:	The Saga of Atha Prime
CREATOR(S):	Kenner Toys
PUBLISHER:	Kenner Toys
DESCRIPTION:	Proposed storyline for an Expanded Universe Kenner action figure line
SUMMARY:	A new villain emerges to threaten the stability of the infant New Republic, Atha Prime. Atha Prime - genetics master, ruler of the dark worlds, and architect of the Clone Wars who, exiled in a remote part of the galaxy by Emperor Palpatine decades ago, has long since been freed by his death. Prime harnesses the power of cloning technology and builds an army of evil Clone Warriors, intended to replace stormtroopers as regular infantrymen. Armed with his personal ship, the ‘Apex Invader’ - which incorporated into his larger flagship, the double decker Star Destroyer ‘Annihilator’ - and his army of combat clones, decimate Rebel outposts in their attempt to crush the Alliance forever. Luke Skywalker, further developing his skills, constructs a second lightsaber, with a red blade, and also purchases a HP-38 landspeeder. The New Republic is caught off - guard by this, and barely has time to modify ships to fight Prime. As he moves to attack Tatooine, the New Republic quickly puts into production the new land - based Desert Speeder. Snowspeeders are reconfigured for combat on desert worlds, and the X-wing is modified for a tandem design to become more efficient: pilot and gunner duties became separate. The Millennium Falcon is equipped with a landing pod. And a new ground vehicle is made-the Rebel SRV-1 (Scout and Retrieval Vehicle), designed as a troop carrier that deployed and retrieved personnel from a combat zone, and could carry a damaged X-wing or snowspeeder from the battleground. Han Solo and Luke fight with the New Republic at Tatooine, Luke's being more personal, and become allies with the Mongo Beefhead Tribesmen: nearly extinct, unusual native humanoids with red skin and flat, tentacled heads. With their help, Luke, Han, and the Rebels gain an upper hand in the battles on Tatooine. Ultimately, Atha Prime and his forces are defeated by the growing, maturing New Republic. From Kenner's 1985-1986 Line Extension Presentation Binder: "A powerful force long kept in exile in a remote fringe of the galaxy has been released by the death of the Emperor. It moves now, like a plague, securing control over the shattered remnants of the empire and re-enslaveing newly freed worlds. Atha Prime, genetics master, ruler of the dark worlds and architect of the Clone Wars, is free again. His advanced army of combat clones has already decimated rebel outposts along the galactic frontier. His goal is to crush forever the Rebel Alliance and control the Galaxy."
