And I was expecting Krennic. Instantly recognizable, although something might be a little off, not sure.

Director?! That doesn't look like Christopher Nolan!

Freeman directed Bopha in 1993. He also has his own production company.

I don’t know if it’s just the posing or something off with the headsculpt but he looks utterly bamboozked by some of the things he’s holding, especially the sheet of paper

He looks so happy!

Nice timeless release for any generic person wearing a suit.

But the early smartphone is a hint to the time period and the 'Map of Hong Kong Big Bus Tours' is another clue.

I googled 'Morgan Freeman Hong Kong'.  It's the outfit he wears in Dark Knight in Hong Kong.



The map, the magical sonar phone, the suit.
I don't even remember they were in Hong Kong but looking at the beautiful skyline clip it seems they were financed by Hong Kong Tourism board or something.


So 'director' might be a hint to the position he holds at the Wayne company.

Doesn't make me the World's greatest Detective though, fans of the film might have recognised it in an instant.

Haha, that's where my mind went, too.

Has there ever been a bootleg unlicensed 1/6 Star Wars figure? (Not speaking of naked stormtroopers, AT-AT shaped dogs and TIE-Balloons etc)

That's what I thought of too.

There are known knock offs of existing Black Series 1/12 scale figures (stormtroopers, clone troopers, etc). But they are actual fake copies, same box art, same name.
I don't remember ever seeing creatively named third party Star Wars figures in any scale

One that I can think of was also, oddly enough, called The Director (though I don't believe that name appeared on the packaging): the Hot Toys figure of George Lucas, made way back when Hot Toys was working unlicensed.

Oh man, now I want a 1/6 George Lucas.  


(And lol, I didn't *seriously* think this was going to be an unlicensed SW figure, I was just laughing at myself for having permanent Star Wars brain.  )

i thought this would be another film director figure, perhaps a Lucas or Spielberg didn't expect Lucius. honestly would have been cooler if it was one of the great film directors. since this is a figure we've seen before...it's ok, the suit is the real draw. but otherwise it's not really something we needed.

For the record: I enjoyed and appreciate your little detective work very much.
