Pabawan never brought up the bumping heads thing in Insider article, and I think he's admit it was a joke on this forum before (He himself is known to be facetious and sarcastic in his answers, as he seems to find alot of fun out of even the most silliest ideas).

Is that right Pabawan? Your article in the last Insider, seemed poke fun at alot of things including at the expense of certain types of fans.

So I'm not sure where you heard he sees it as a serious opinion.

On another note, the actor who played the bumping heads stormtrooper in ANH was taller than the actor that played Jango Fett in AOTC, last I read. Also the bumping heads stormtrooper was taller than the other stormtroopers around him.

On a side note having had the chance to try on one of those helmets before (at least a replica), and it was difficult to see out of (because peripheral vision was impaired), would that make me a Jango Fett clone, because the helmets aren't designed with good eyesight in mind?

Where as psycholgical traits can be passed onto offspring. Accidents caused from being too tall, and wearing a mask that blocks one's vision is not a genetic trait. Unless one argues that a child is born with a mask on, and pass the genetic trait of growing a mask onto their offspring.

Ok, I see where your coming from. Good Point. However behaving similarly as your "parent" would, were he wearing a vision impairing helmet, can be related to genetics though, can't it? I mean the genes of some people would naturally make them more vigilant concerning their steps, than certain other individuals, if someone all of a sudden tucked a vision impairing device such as a helmet onto your head.

Lucas laughed when he said it, so yes he was being facetious.

Funny that you would bring up mental psychological traits vs. physical accidents caused by vision impairment due to the mask that they put on. Bad analogy on your part as the two things are not at all the same, .

Where as psycholgical traits can be passed onto offspring. Accidents caused from being too tall, and wearing a mask that blocks one's vision is not a genetic trait. Unless one argues that a child is born with a mask on, and pass the genetic trait of growing a mask onto their offspring.

There is also the author's prerogative to change his mind if he didn't like his previous ideas, and thought something else would be better.

However, why Lucas does things like contradict his audio commentary of the AOTC DVD *(*yes Pablo, from what I'm aware off, he was quoted as saying that the head bumping trait was genetically passed down to All Stormtroopers of the OT, meaning he would be contradicting himself, with his newest statement*)* I'm certainly not aware off. What I am aware off, is that these contradictions are beginning to decline my confidence in Lucas' ability (and I say that because up until now, I seemed to have been one of the people in the minority, who considered both Ep.1 and 2 to be just as good as the OT).

Hmm, I wonder for how long they're going to ban me now, after telling a SW insider that he and Lucas contradicted themselves, and for saying Lucas has lost his mind? Let me take a guess.

Forever.

+I think there should be a correction made to Jaina's bio in future editions.
It says that Jaina found a "surrogate mother" in Mara, which I find to be very unfair to Leia. Yes, Jaina and Leia had some problems during the NJO, mostly because of Jaina's attitude, but in my estimation, Mara never became a "surrogate mother" to Jaina. Friend, sure. Mentor, yeah. But not a "surrogate mother."+

I agree, because that is directly contradicted in VP, where is states Mara was "not a mother to Jaina, rather a big sister". Page two, I think.

Also, might Jaina's height be amended? She is set at 4 feet 8 inches. That's crazy. Han is about six feet. Leis is 5'2".
That is a few inches taller than I was in kindergarten. Now granted, I was tall, 4'0", but at five. Jaina's impossibly short. Is that a typo?

Would you mind telling me, Mr. Pablo (I know that's not your last name), what the approximate percentage of Jango clones, to other template clones, to human recruits is, by the beginning of the OT, then? Would you also mind telling me just how inferior the majority of those clones are? And finally, would you mind telling me why you personally said that there will be no clones other than those of Jango, in Ep.3, if there will be multiple sources in Ep.4? I understand that there is a 19 year gap between Ep.3 and 4, but if it wasn't related to Ep.3, then why were the other clones mentioned in the Ep.3 webcams?

I am doubting that it should be considered offcial, since Lucas' own audio commentary in the AOTC DVD, explained that the OT Stormtroopers bumb their head, because it was passed down to them genetically, by Jango. So it seems like its Insider vs. Lucas, and we all know who's version of the story wins if that contradiction occurs.

As previously noted, both answers are from GWL, and there's no contradiction, since there are still plenty of Jango-batch head-bumpin' clones for everyone to love and enjoy.

VIPs- Out of curiosity, Sue, in regards to that upcoming publishing list you posted a page or two back- What would have happened with the paperback editions of LOE and "Outbound Flight" had Del Rey not recieved a renewel for the license?

In other words, would Del Rey have had the rights to still publish paperback editions in 2006, overlapping with the publications from the new holder? (and if so, would that have barred Del Rey from adding any new content like an e-book?)

Or, would it cross over to the new publisher?

It was answered by Pablo Hidalgo at the Q&A section. It said not all Stormtroopers are still clones from Jango. Several other sources have served as hosts. Send me your e-mail & I will scan the page from the Insider. You will see that we are not kidding about this.

Sure thing, my e-mail is . And by the way, while I'm not doubting that that was in Insider, I am doubting that it should be considered offcial, since Lucas' own audio commentary in the AOTC DVD, explained that the OT Stormtroopers bumb their head, because it was passed down to them genetically, by Jango. So it seems like its Insider vs. Lucas, and we all know who's version of the story wins if that contradiction occurs. And while I do believe that there are a small number of humans or non-jango clones in the ranks, I don't think that their templates are chosen due to wealth, or high rank, but combat ability.
