If you ask:Who is Ralph mcQuarrie??For those who don`t know the galaxy that good!
Artist Profile: The vivid imagination of conceptual artist Ralph McQuarrie brought to life the characters and worlds envisioned by George Lucas. McQuarrie’s paintings and drawings were instrumental in the push to bring Lucas’s saga to the big screen, giving shape and form to a multitude of fantastic individuals, creatures, planets and technology encompassed in this epic tale. Developed in collaboration with McQuarrie himself, this remarkable action figure series pays tribute to the man whose art defined some of the most memorable characters in film history.
Comments: Boba Fett was one of the first new characters to be designed for The Empire Strikes Back. The costume began as a Mandalorian supercommando suit and went through various designs, as well as being aged, dented, and painted to give it a battle-scarred appearance. It's final look hides a plethora of built-in weapons - and the identity of the ruthless bounty hunter it encases.

Any REAL fan of Star Wars should be well aware of who Ralph McQuarrie is.

I'm a huge fan of the concept Luke vs Vader piece they put out. Got it at a killer discount. I just love his art in general, I'll probably get a few prints of his concept work, everyone should google it and check it out.

I would love to see GG do a concept Luke and/or Vader MB but more than anything I'd like a concept Snowtrooper. I know don't hold my breath.

Have you ever imagined a world with no hypothetical situations?

I went to a general store. They wouldn't let me buy anything specifically.

He is a great artist, I have a few cool prints signed by him, he is always very kind with his fans, too bad he has Parkinson.

These are quite hard to find. Try looking for someone selling the Star Wars Portofolio.
