Did you know:
George Lucas has a toy commissioned in his likeness. The character's name is "Jorg Sacul".
Yoda's character is the most "reproduced image" in the Star Wars universe. Over 12 action figures, 200 poster(etc.) licences, and over 5000 referrences in US pop culture.
The runner up is Darth Vader.
Names of pop-culture terms and political personalities, help determine Star Wars character names (e.g. Trent Lott + Chris Dodd = Neimoidian Senator Lott Dodd, Kitt + He-Man's Fisto = Jedi Kit Fisto, Newt Gingrich + Ronald Reagan = Newt Gunray, Jango Fett's first name came about thanks to a spaghetti western called DJANGO about a loner gunslinger and starring Franco Nero, Klatuu, Barada, and Nikto are a reference to "The Day The Earth Stood Still", there's an X-Wing Fighter pilot named Jeb Porkins (he's fat), the term "Wookie" comes from Lucas' movie THX-1138 that had a quote, "It sounds like you ran over a wookiee [sic] back there...", and 4-LOM the bounty hunter's name comes from 4 Love Or Money)
Every Star Wars action figure comes with 10 Jedi Points to earn, yet there is no way (process) to redeem them. :(
There are realistic replicas of all of the main characters' lightsabers for sale.
AND Ewan McGregor is the nephew of Denis Lawson (the actor that played the ever-popular Wedge Antilles).
