Oh spare us from this recurring politically correct race wars BS. Some of
us just would like to see Lando Calrissian and some of the other "African
American" characters portrayed with brown heads... that's it! There's no
underlying animosity towards any particular race, or want for segregation or
anything like that. The fact is Lego has made "racial" characters in other
lines in the past. At the Lego Imagination Center at the Mall of America,
they've got a minifig sculpture made with brown bricks instead of yellow.
IMO making a yellow-headed Lando is as stupid as making a purple-headed
Yoda, or a bright pink Gammorean Guard. I realize that the other characters
with their yellow heads are no more accurate than a yellow Lando would be,
but I for one want a brown Lando.
