      (...) Yes, I did take a look. I agree. The whole model looks decidedly dodgy - one for completeness and parts only, I fear. Chewie seems to work, though. Huw (25 years ago, 15-Feb-00, to lugnet.loc.uk)

   (...) Surely it's a holster belted to his leg? C3P0 looks like he has a giant eye in his belly (urgh!) - he would have looked better if constructed like the droid soldiers/skeletons. Jon (25 years ago, 15-Feb-00, to lugnet.loc.uk)
