I was browsing shop.lego.com and decided to pre-order a couple of the NBA
Collectors sets. Looking at the closeups, Shaquille O'Neal from 3561 is
cleanshaven and has no stubble on his bald head (though he is smiling) so

Calrissian. No more bad paint jobs on blank brown minfig heads!
For whatever reason some of the Collectors sets are listed as ship by 31 Dec
2002 and others 11 Feb 2003...
