you know, I think I colored one of my old storm trooper figures with a sharpie when I was a little kid to look like that.

What's next? The pink Stormtrooper?
The rainbow stormtrooper?
The 501st stormtrooper?
Aw, crap... Never mind. They went and did it.
If they're going to make figures to appease fan groups, when are they going to make the "Morbidly-obese-fanboy-who-lives-in-his-mother's-basement-and-who-hasn't-had-a-date-...ever" action figure? I think there're more of those out there than 501st members. :P

I just couldn't help myself. I saw it at Target and just had the urge. So I did it. I'm sorry.

I'd rather see the Pink Stormtrooper though....

I'd buy an Obi-Ton figure. Who wouldn't want a figure of a fat, ugly bloke in a nappy who's swinging a lightsabre around?

Or, how about the figure of the 35-year-old-virgin-who's-never-kissed-a-girl-much-less-touched-one-who-hangs-around-Toys-R-Us-waiting-for-them-to-bring-out-the-unopened-boxes-of-figures-so-he-can-get-that-one-hard-to-find-2-1B-figur e?
Or, what about the fleet-junkie-who-thinks-Thrawn-is-a-god figure?

Hey Jacob! Are you coming for any of the drive-ins? Tim got me the mini Mara and I'm dying to know what all these numbers and stuff mean on the card, LOL.

I hope I helped with your questions, Trace, and didn't bore you too much. 
Do any of you need any 12 inch dolls to fill in gaps in your collection? There is a sale at one of Yodasnews.com's sponsors:

Thanks, Jacob! 
Here's what I got this weekend. They were just too damn cute not to buy!
Rachel and I were racing them on the kitchen floor and she proved, once and for all, that she is my daughter by announcing, "I'll do Luke!"

Oh no. You've corrupted a youngling. But, that does indeed prove that she is your daughter.
Are those the mororcycle racer toys?
(they'll make anything...of course, we buy it....so it's justified.)

Got a pair of those myself. Of course, I HAD to have the Vader but Peanut wanted one too. He's got is own now and mine is still up on the china cabinet with the rest of my Vader shrine.
