I knew Captain Rex was on Endor — I didn’t know he was on Hoth as well.

Pretty sure that’s Han Solo’s dad, on his hunt for the Holograil.
Rebel Hoth troopers are some of the least interesting Star Wars minifigures
Captain Rex?
Hoth:
Rebel Soldier (in brown): So, how long have you been on guard duty?
This guy: Let's put it this way...(points to chin) THIS IS NOT A BEARD...:D
Also: The funny thing is: 'Empire' was the first "Star Wars" I saw, in theater, and with my Dad (nooo, not 'the Lego Guy'...). Irony is, I still knew who the hell everybody because of: action figures, comic books and other cross-pollination. Can't think of another IP/Franchise where did that...:)

I had read a lot of Star Trek :The Next Generation novels before I ever saw more than a few minutes of it. Not exactly the same thing, but I still quickly learned who everybody was. Familiarity with TOS helped with that.
I could have sworn that was the head they used for Saruman behind his hair and beard but it seems it’s an entirely separate if quite similar print that completely ruins all the jokes I was thinking of…
He looks like he's been done with Hoth and been there 28 years too many
