Replacing Yoda - even just for the photoshoot - would defeat the entire purpose of the trip in my oppinion.

Only one Yoda was fried by Ewan and only one Yoda has been around the world. Replacing him seems wrong - again in my oppinion.

Isn't it possible to glue or bandage his ears to a fair look?

Hope things work out for the right Yoda to complete the entire trip without standin. Glad to see he is still on the move. happy

Go Yoda, you can do it. happy

I agree. Even if he gets down to nothing more than an armature (sp) I would like my original little guy to complete the tour. And yes, there is only ONE Yoda who was fried by Ewan...YOU STILL OWE ME A YODA, MCGREGOR! lol

If George comes out to ask why you are putting that scruffy looking Yoda in front of the Yoda fountain, just tell him the story. The decaying ears is part of the Yoda puppets story - just as the Hawaiian shirt has become. wink

I managed to glue Yoda's ripped right ear closed, and added moss green Sculpey clay to reshape the end of his torn off left ear. I can include extra clay when I ship him for touch up repairs.

I've got the extra stuff that's been weighing him down, I've just not had the time to go get it mailed as I've been swamped with things to do, but I didn't send it all along. So there's a box that will come from me at some point with his knick knacks.

This is my defense for dropping the ball on shipping in a timely fashion. But I will.

/\ In his defense, I was supposed to pick it up, but got stuck in Palmdale all day instead.

Here are the pics I took. I'm only using like 6 of them to fit the one page. Any Indy fans recognize that staircase? wink

I should be sending him off to Sacramento this week.

Thanks. I wish I could have put more pics in the album, if it weren't for the "one page per Fan Force" rule now.

sad
