Yeah, I mention that later on. Patience, young Jedi.

...which is easy to do with head-swapping. And the Luke face is really pretty
generic - it could be used in any other theme, really. And the 'different look'
is entirely my point - I'd rather have 5 *different* Lukes than 5 identical Qui-
Gons. I like the fact that they have a bunch of Lukes. Variety is good.
This is my major beef with several themes, not just SW. Adventurers, for
example. How many Professors do I really need? Or Johnny Thunders? (I'll take
plenty of Gail Storms, though, her head is nice.)

Rumor had it that there was going to be a SW figure pack. This was the same
rumor that told of the MF and the Slave One, so it's 2 for 3 so far. We can only
hope that it was completely accurate...

Um, no, he has blond hair. Luke doesn't go around wearing a helmet in that
part of ESB. (And I was wrong, I used a Luke head from a spare Landspeeder,
not a Pilot Luke head, on the mechanic body. My bad.)

| (...) Aren't those faces the same? I don't have an X-Wing handy, but I thought all the Luke's from last year were the same face. Steve -- "In that galaxy far far away, Luke has had a lousy day" (25 years ago, 24-Jan-00, to lugnet.starwars)
