Coleman Trebor AOTC Character Review

 You saw him in Attack of the Clones as the Jedi who landed near Dooku, ignited his lightsaber and got promptly shot and killed by Jango Fett. Other than being a cool looking alien, who, yes, did get a 3.75 inch action figure, what is known about this Jedi Master? Well, you're going to find out through this blog post as I cover Coleman Trebor in both Legends and Disney Canon.


A member of the Vurk species, he was tall and physically imposing. In Disney Canon, his story is simply landing near Count Dooku and getting blasted by Jango Fett and falling to his death. He replaced Yareal Poof on the Jedi Council. He was replaced by Kit Fisto after Geonosis.

The Legends biography is actually more fleshed out. Same species and same background being the only one of his species to become a Jedi, but he played a role in saving Chancellor Palpatine from assassin droids. He would use his sheer size to intimidate hostile beings (as he does in Disney Canon) and preferred negotiating over fighting but was capable of doing both.

He was named after ILM employee Rob Coleman with Trebor being Robert spelled backwards. He is completely CGI, based off of the Parasaurolophus. While not a notable Jedi, he has a scene of some importance as he has a chance to end the Clone Wars before it begins, and shows that Jango Fett is not someone a Jedi should take lightly. He would get a figure in the 2002 Saga figures and would appear in the Legacy Collection as part of a 2 pack with Jango Fett in 2009.

My SWTVC March Madness Top 25

  So I've finally gotten around to making my Top 25 for the SWTVC March Madness Tournament, and as a a reminder, the final day to get your Top 25 list is January 31st! When making your list, 1 is the most desired, with 25 being the least desired. So here is my list, with an explanation why they're ranked at their position. Some obvious omissions are Luke and Han from ANH because I think they'll both be in March Madness, and I did my best to spread it across the 9 episodic movies, plus video games and other expanded universe material. And as Casey Kasem said: "On with the countdown!" 1. Joruus C'baoth. He's my top choice because he's coming to the Black Series, and he's a Legends character. Plus since we have Thrawn, I want a C'baoth to better interact with him. This would have been Legends Thrawn, but due to the rules he couldn't be made as there is already an officer buck. 2. Mara Jade. You may have noticed my Legends trend, and you'd...

SWTVC & SWS 2024 March Madness Tournament Begins

  Every year, the SWTVC on Instagram does a Vintage Collection version of March Madness. If you want to join in on the voting, I'll add the article from BanthaSkull which has the Google Form link in it. And due to my attendance at Fan Expo New Orleans, I don't have an article completely ready to go, so once again, I'll do my own March Madness event settled by, you guessed it, coin flips! I will also be participating in the SWTVC March Madness poll and will do my Top 25 on here, since I want everyone who reads this to participate in that. For SWTVC, it's easy to do: make a list, in order of preference, of 25 characters you want to see as figures. For me, this is hard since I want all of these figures! For the Tonnika Sisters and Two Tubes, they will be counted as one figure. To participate in the SWTVC March Madness, click on the link below: https://www.banthaskull.com/story/news-vintage-collection-march-madness-2024-submit-your-top-25 And if you want to vote for your ...

2024 Last Figure Standing

Image
  Once again, Last Figure Standing is back for 2024! The rules are simple, 10 figures in order of preference. And another reminder this is for the Vintage Collection, I don't know if there is anything similar for the Black Series but if there is I'll share it here. Also note this was written in late July, as after SDCC, I have a few changes from last year's list since some of those are being made, but I don't see any changes for when this will start. And I should point out that voting hasn't started yet, but I am simply getting a jump start as I just got the VC Jabba the Hutt yesterday, and don't have time for a review and comparison to the 2010 Legacy Collection Jabba ready to go. Now, not all of these figures will be new sculpts, and of course I have just about all eras of Star Wars represented in this list. 10. Rey (Episode 8 Throne Room Duel). I hate the Disney Trilogy, but I want this figure since Rey looks like a Jedi. I wouldn't say no to a Rey Skywal...
