    I mean, there are no yellow lightsabers. What gives?

    I'm trying to think of the best use of yellow...

    Any help here would be hot.



    The Flag Parade??

    Bossk's outfit.

    Or, while it's not strictly yellow in the glorious Sapientesque sense of yellow, there's definitely some yellow tones in Salacious Crumb's coloring.



    Rick McCallum loves you!

    True dat, Adam.

    It's just a shame that Gold Squadren wasn't named Yellow.

    Sape could've been Yellow Leader.

    I was actually hoping for PT lightsabers to be blue, yellow and red, leaving green as a ROTJ surprise. Oh well.

    Half of Biggs' helmet is yellow.

    The Naboo starfighters had a sweet yellow paint job, and stood in stark contrast to the more rugged and worn X-Wings of the Rebellion.

    Yes, bright colors were shunned in the dreary galaxy of the Empire.

    Except the Emperor's Royal Guards.

    Now if their robes had just been yellow...

    I believe that the color yellow in the Star Wars Universe represents urine. To this day we have never seen any Star Wars character using the facilities.

    Queen Amidala's handmaidens wear yellow in TPM, and Padme also wears yellow in AOTC.

    Padme wears yellow in AOTC? Where?

    Anyhow, yellow is a cheerful color usually. The OT is not a cheerful time in the galaxy, until the very end of the movie.

    The best use of yellow in SW is in the main
    title and roll up!

    I agree that it's shame there have been no yellow
    bladed light sabers on screen. When I was a kid,
    I had the plastic 'The Force' lightsaber and mine
    was yellow. My lightsaber will not be canon until
    there is one on the screen ;)

    at the end of ANH, Luke's got a yellow jacket, and Han's bloodstripes in ESB and ROTJ are yellow.

    The opening scroll is classic, of course, but is it true yellow?

    There are yellow lightsabers that are canon, just not in the movies. ;)

    Wo, I'm surprised nobody's posted the two yellow speeders in the Coruscant chase in AOTC. Both Anakin's and Zam's speeders are yellow.

    Anakin's is yellow but Zam's is mostly green with some yellowish-orangish spots.
