[edit] References

I've made a few references (I think). All I need help with is getting them into a Notes and References Section.OOM-10 18:38, 4 May 2007 (UTC)OOM-10

[edit] Intuition

Why is there absolutely no reference to 4-LOM's quest for intuition in the article? Maybe it isn't referenced in other sources, but in "Of Possible Futures" it's a significant part of his character. It says he teamed up with Zuckuss specifically to further his understanding of the foreign concept of intuition, with the hopes of gaining that ability himself. Jawajoey 00:05, 24 June 2007 (UTC)

  • Why? No one added it yet. =) Feel free to correct the article. --Imperialles 00:29, 24 June 2007 (UTC)


[edit] IG-88C under "Rebel Agent"

In this part of the article, it says 4-LOM worked with IG-88C, although he was destroyed. The only possible IG-88 droid left was IG-88D, right? IG-88C and B were destroyed, and A was deactivated at the time. Someone please fix this if I'm correct. -Anonymous Guy April 3, 2009

[edit] 4-LOM.....the real meaning of the acronym-----and the true tale of the mix up between Zukcuss and 4-LOM

My name is Tom Clark. I was the product manager for the first 3 Star Wars movies. In the thrid merchandising year of each movie, Kenner (now Hasbro) would be struggling to find fresh action figures and other products since most resources were exhausted from the toy lines planned for the first 2 product years of each movie.

We had a desire to build the bounty hunter portfolio supporting Boba Fett and chose the image of what is now called Zuckuss. Lucasfilm did not have a name for the figure, and I submitted the acronym 4-LOM....and its full name was For LOVE OR MONEY... (not Love OF Money). I am not clear where the name Zuckuss came from. This was approved in a letter from Maggie Young, who at the time was the head licensing contact at Lucasfilm.

Hi, can the article explain why the figures are mixed up? Why the black one was first called Zuckuss, and the tan one 4-LOM?202.82.171.186

[edit] Video games

We can assume that Super Star Wars games are not Canon for the movies and just there for entertainment, thus, we can assume 4LOM and the other Cloud city foes are NOT MEANT TO BE CANONICALLY REFERENCED. Discuss. So some guy who thinks they are can stop reverting my edit when I try to phrase it so this site doesn't look like it's edited by people who don't have common sense.
