The extra weight of the two Mini-Figs should be avoided.
Assuming they are still there, not melted aleady, then burry them until
Fed-Ex sets up shop.
|
Sneak a pair of Jar-Jar minifigs along with your luggage to keep the weight
roughly similar, and youre golden. The bit about melting is a valid
concern, though. How hot does it get on the solar side of Mars? ABS is
toast if it ever hits 300 degrees or more. Maybe they sent metal minifigs?

Actually, theyre printed representations of minifigs on an oval disk attached
to the DVDs on each lander. More info
at the Planetary Society
site, heres a pic taken on Mars by the Spirit rover:

Note the three titanium bricks holding the DVD in place, used as additional
color calibration targets.
