    Have you ever noticed a guy running through the halls of Bespin with an Ice Cream Maker after Lando informs the residents that the Empire has taken control of the city???

    Do you want to learn more about him?

    Do you want an action figure made of him???

    Do you like Ice Cream???

    Do you like to laugh???

    If the answer to some of these questions is yes then I ask you to check out the grass roots petition drive going on here to get Ice Cream Maker Guy Made into plastic.

    Don't know who he is??? Check it out here...

    Ice Cream Maker Guy's Official Website

    Here is a direct link to the petition :)

    I always look at that guy when I watch TESB, as he runs through the halls carrying his most precious possesion. You would have though he's have a suitcase full of credits or a treasured family heirloom, but instead he just grabs his hallowed kitchen appliance and runs for the hills.
    I've always thought what he must be thinking. SOmething like.

    "Those damn Imperials ain't getting this!"

    "They think this is an ice cream maker, well they're wrong, it makes bread!"

    It is rumored that the Ice Cream Makers actually is Lucas's personal one :)

    I bet he's a smuggler, mercenary or a bounty hunter. Everyone in SW is at some point in their lifetime.

    Actually it looks like IceCream guy is running as fast as possible away from Bespin... I doubt he's coming back either. ;)

    Spread the word and ICMG will join such luminaries as Porkins, Wuher and Jar Jar Binks in action figure form :D

    LOL, last post was funny as hell.

    I first registered him in the Insider magazine all about TESB. I've made a point of pointing him out ever since. Watching the people fleeing Cloud City with me is a bit like a guided tour.

    "And there goes the guy with the ice cream maker.."
    "Watch this-best shot in the trilogy-stormtrooper shoots, misses, ZAT! Chewie nails him right in the chest!"

    I will be sourly disappointed if Ice Cream Maker Guy doesn't have a cameo in Episdoe III.

    I think (if Georgie Boy reads my script idea) we may be in luck, Ice Cream Maker Guy will be in Episode III.

    Man likes his icecream.
    Ever since I read what he was carrying he always sticks out like a sore, and desperate, thumb.

    this could be a sign of things to come. After Episode 3 is long gone fans will rave over every little character in Star Wars. LOL

    I'd like to see a clonetrooper using an ice-cream maker as some sort of exotic weapon in Episode III. Might be good for a laugh.

    The reason the whole petition drive started was a post over at the Rebelscum Forums (a Star Wars Toy Collecting Site www.rebelscum.com) about some EU bull about how Plo Koon can form ice through the Force. An ongoing joke over there was to make an ICMG figure, the two happened to coincide at the right time and voila...the petition drive for an action figure. My hope is that I brought a smile to someone's face after having seen my site ;)

    Thanks for signing :)

    ICMG is in the scene right after lando announces to the residents of Cloud City that the Empire has taken control. Everyone starts running every which way and Ice Cream Maker Guy rounds the corner and makes a mad dash for safety, he is there ;)
