I get the impression that whoever designed Darth Sion may have seen this old B-movie.

 

[Hive]

Heh they do indeed look pretty alike. :D

[KOTORFanactic]

Yep, both good looking.

Yeah, yeah both bald.

Oh yes, both topless.

 

I do believe you are right.

[Rosbjerg]

great find .. it seems very likely that the artists behind Sion had some inspiration from this character!

[Nitron]

Kind of a mirror image of the Terminator.

[Laozi]

It definitely wouldn't be the first thing Star Wars inspired by another person's work

[DeathScepter]

that is eerie in a cool way

that's like the Fine Young Cannibals (British pop group) took their name from a bad B movie. And Lucas did base all his combat scenes in the movies on real footage from WWII.

 

Good find! :D

You must have missed it. They parked it in the Baltic Sea. Big one. Floated like a beach ball. Nasty little thing.
