The figures in the West Wars series by Sillof depict the iconic Star Wars characters in an old-western fashion. Luke and Darth Vader trade in their lightsabers for guns to duel it out on an empty dust road.
To stick with the cowboy motif, the West Wars series gives robots R2-D2 and C-3PO humanized bodies and transforms Chewbacca into a pelt-wearing Native American. This has to be one of the most well done adaptation of the Star Wars characters I have ever come across.
