I don't really feel sorry for Target, I'm sure that they know what they are doing. It may have been accidental in the beginning, but they could stop the sale anytime they feel like. If they feel like cutting the price 50%, I will take them up on (...) (22 years ago, 22-May-02, to lugnet.starwars)

That's a great theory. What makes it even greater, is that to all the other characters, R2D2 is "Just a droid", so they don't even realize that he is the Chosen One. He is the silent controller of events. He is there not to bring attention to (...) (22 years ago, 22-May-02, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.off-topic.fun)
