Back in the day when I collected everything Lego Star Wars, Lego started producing these Connect and Build Pens.  As stated, I was collecting everything Lego Star Wars and these were Lego, Star Wars and Minifigures.  So I collected them.  Ha.  I stopped the collection and never quite finished, but I found these today and decided to finish it up.  See the ones that I currently have in the picture below and the 6 that I am missing at the bottom of the post.

They came out with a few designs that they never released in minifigure form and some of them were pretty useful for customizing.    The Chrome Jango helmet for example.

Also, if you are looking for a Chrome c-3po on a budget, this one can be had for about 10 bucks on eBay.  It is not perfect, but it is better than nothing if you do not want to spend $500 bucks.

I just pulled the figures from the pens and threw out the rest of the pieces since they were impossible to display as pens.  Some of the pieces are pretty neat and they are all interchangeable.

Well, what do you think? Do they belong in a proper minifigure collection or not?  In all fairness, I should warn you that these are not of the same quality as regular lego minifigures.  It is very unfortunate that lego put out a product like this and that they did not keep the quality level the same.

I am planning to add the to the priceguide with the other 7500 figures once I get the last few of these.

Bricklink has 42 different Star Wars pen sets, but alot of them are duplicates.

Additionally, some of them have the word Lego written on the back like this and some do not.  You will have no way of knowing until the set is opened.  Because of this, I did not worry about variations in this way.  You can see this below.  Also note the different color variations as well.  For these two reasons, I will just list one for each figure and not worry about these two items.  If any one knows of a good list that has all of these variations, let me know.

Here are the rest that I am currently missing for a few more minutes.  Do you know of any others.
