Super poll: If you were to get a painting of a Star Wars character, who would you want?
I think a TIE pilot, with a squad of TIE/Interceptors flying past in the background. Go for a military recruitment poster look.
Otherwise, Vader or Luke are iconic to the series, couldn't really go wrong with them.
Maybe if I were a few years less mature I'd throw out "Leia, in the metal bikini", but I'm guessing that suggestion may be frowned upon.
Of course, the best answer is, and always will be, "Chewie riding a giant squirrel fighting Nazis", but I've already got that as a poster.

Or a recreation of any of the original movie posters
I would throw a good amount of money at an original poster.
Tangent - there's a documentary on Netflix about the artist that drew a lot of iconic movie posters, star wars and Indiana Jones included, and it's super interesting if you like the subject matter. Think the name is The Man Behind The Poster.
Now that I have internet I can properly make this post!
On mon evening I came home from work to find out that i had been spoiled:
- A toblerone. Confession: I had never had one of these before. Now I can't stop
- Bayonetta 2
- A MTG deck box. These ones in particular are quality
- A Hanayama puzzle. My tiny reptile brain is really bad at these so I'm glad I get to embarrass myself in the privacy of my own home
- The Onion Book of Known Knowledge. A 100% factual encyclopedia of everything known by humankind
- A whole lot of mints/saltwater taffy, that was essentially used as delicious packing material
When I checked up on missed emails from being away I saw I also had this:

That is a sweet haul!
Also I fuckin' loooooove toblerones
Also! I found out this past week that there is a soda bottled about an hour from here called swamp pop and they have a praline cream soda and it is INCREDIBLE. I am sending a bottle to each of my Santees next year.
Smash with the hard to find Gamecube adapter. That's one awesome Santa.
Santa didn't eff around. Also now the wait for Christmas day is going to suuuuuuck hahaha.
I look forward to smashing with Vow and any other comers!
Glad you liked it!
I do prefer the GC pad for Smash, but I was all flush with the spirit of giving and the GC adapters are practically impossible to find
I actually love the Wii U Game Pad for Smash as well, though, so I am perfectly fine with that and the hopes that Nintendo will one day make more of the GC adapters
Also you will totally beat me at Smash, I'm bush league

Dude, whatever. You went above and beyond for this one. Mad props.
Smash with a GC adapter! That's so amazing! I can't believe how hard they've become to find, after Nintendo was publicizing the use of GC controllers for Smash. I'm hoping they make more for when I eventually pick it up.

Great to see it made it there safely. Happy to hear that you liked your gift.
I really recommend not eating the Toblerone in a single sitting, or sharing it with your friends/loved ones/ conscripted movers. It's a bit larger than the normal sized bars.
The taffy though, that you should hoard like a jealous dragon.
And now, I can put my anonymous Santa Yahoo account to bed for another year. Or until I start itching for a giving fix.
So, I got home and had a package to open. Spoiler for big.
So first called dog over to investigate. This was bad idea, but I tell you why later.
She likes opening presents. Dad, open it faster, I want in.
What is this? more wrapping to deal with?
So, you called me over here, where is my present? This isn't fair dad, you were using me for cute pictures.
Maybe I can distract her while I grab the loot.
You don't fool me. This one is mine. I claim it. Ha, I have my feet on it and you can't take it.
She did start pawing at the one to. She really wanted it open. That and the bottle shaped one. Food?
Ha, your distracted by your card. Now is my chance. Note the front left paw, it is about to go up and paw at present. she knows how to open them. Guess this is downside of letting her open her own birthday presents.
Yeah, calling her over backfired. Quick, distract with a cookie.
I got the loot, what is this? Don't open??
Well, I can follow directions. I did say I would wait to open, but my santa knows I got them all.
And who was that masked woman? (I saw woman based on name on return address. Sorry if I got that wrong.)
cool pin! Pft, humble? We in the steam thread no that if you paid full price for a gift, you over paid!
So, I looked back at your post history for research:

1: I got them, thank you.
2: Your wrapping is better than mine.
3: I am sure it was worth it. I don't do malls. We used to live by one, terrible this time of year.
4: I'm sure I like it. I even liked getting bad rats.. wait... maybe not bad rats... but everything else.
5: My sister dose same thing. Me, not so good at it. Now Cyber Monday, that is better.
6: Mrs. Alure loves the Christmas music.
I would have warned my santee that a gift was coming but it shipped last night and is arriving today. Crazy Amazon.

I don't know if I would be able to restrain myself from opening a present for two weeks if someone handed it to me.
It would be a monumental test of my patience

And I don't get off work until 10 PM tonight. And I won't get home till close to 11 PM Tonight (PST).
The only correct answer is: Chewbacca riding a giant squirrel fighting Nazis.
Edit: oh I should have just agreed with see!
Personally I would love Han shooting greedo.

Santa strikes with his forward smash!
A nice dodge roll gets him in position
He follows it up with a grab
Is that a ledge guard I see?
Flawless! The other guy never stood a chance!
Thanks a ton @UnbreakableVow ! Come Christmas day i will open that Wii u and... Probably die horribly against your onslaught.
Now I have to look at amiibos to buy and raise an army against you!
Merry Christmas!
OOH, OOH, DRAW HOTH!! It's so cozy and cold there! Ah, the good ol' days...
Spreading Christmas cheer across the forums since 2009!

Also consider nabbing the Humble Dynamite MEGA Holidays Bundle if you like digital comics.
Brr, why do we call it Hoth? Perhaps we should rename it to Coldth!
Coldth will be a Magma planet.
Great to see it made it there safely. Happy to hear that you liked your gift.
