I voted Hammerhead.




Well, obviously not. Who am I trying to kid?

Next four matches are up for voting on so go and get involved. Three former champions in these next head to heads

Final match for today pitches the Jawa against Hammerhead. Until last year Hammerhead had never cleared this round, in fact apart from two of those years he had never cleared the group stages, but in 2020 he had his finest performance as he reached the quarter finals only to be destroyed by eventual...

2016 champion, Emperor's Royal Guard, goes into a tough knockout against Luke Jedi. Although ERG won in 2016, on three other occasions it has fallen at this stage including 2020 when it lost out to IG-88. Luke Jedi has always flattered to deceive, having always cleared the group stages he's gone on ...

Luke what we have here. It's Luke versus Luke, battle of the Skywalker's, Luke whose Talking, but which is your favourite? Luke Stormie with his thick neck or Luke Bespin in his beautiful slacks. Luke Bespin was the surprise winner in 2019, where he eliminated three former champions - Stormtrooper, ...

Opening up the next four matches sees the 2018 champion, Biker Scout, lock heads with Zuckuss. Looking at previous years it looks on paper a mismatch, but Fett has just fallen to a figure who had never won a knockout match so who knows! Biker Scout is the second most successful figure going by stats...

First four second matches end, 2015 champion Boba Fett eliminated in those opening games.


QUALIFIERS
Imperial Stormtrooper (Hoth Battle Gear)
R2-D2 with Sensorscope
Sand People (Tusken Raider)
Ben 'Obi-Wan' Kenobi / Princess Leia Organa (Bespin Gown)

A real tight affair between Leia Bespin and Obi-Wan sees them finish level pegging, they will both go into the draw to create a three way match in the third round. QUALIFIERS Imperial Stormtrooper (Hoth Battle Gear) R2-D2 with Sensorscope Sand People (Tusken Raider) Ben 'Obi-Wan' Kenobi / Princess L...

A truly one sided match up with the Tusken destroying Lando by 12 votes, the vote was never close from the start. Tusken has reached the third round on four occasions but only one of those has he progressed beyond. Could it be the Sand People year? QUALIFIERS Imperial Stormtrooper (Hoth Battle Gear)...

A fascinating three way fight in this match sees the first of the former champions eliminated. Boba Fett went all the way to victory way back in 2015, and to be honest with his reappearance in The Mandalorian, was expecting a better run than this. But it is R2 Sensorscope that reaches the last 16, T...

A real tight match to open this second round but the three time finalist, Hoth Stormie, makes the third round yet again, in the history of the competition the third round is the worst it has performed.


QUALIFIERS
Imperial Stormtrooper (Hoth Battle Gear)

First four matches of the second round are now live, including the 2015 champion Boba Fett.

Obi Wan and Leia Bespin both go out to enjoy their fourth appearance in the second round, but at this point neither have ever won their second round match ups, until now, one of them must progress to ground they've never taken before. Here is their previous appearances in the second round. OBI-WAN K...

This is only Lando's second appearance in the knockouts so you kind of think Tusken will dominate here but Lando did comfortably come through his group so perhaps he's a popular choice this time out. Neither have ever met in the past so this is a head to head which is tough to call. PLEASE CHOOSE YO...

This second round match up includes three figures after a tie in the group stage. It also throws up the first former champion as 2015 winner Boba Fett gets involved in the knockouts. R5 was a semi finalist in 2020 and has some form, whilst R2 Sensorscope will make this a fascinating threeway. In 201...
