I think he's annoying on the movie, but I'm talking about the minifig. The tan arms and body are great for other guys (not to mention rare tan hands), and so are the dark grey pants. And if you don't like the head, you can always cut one up and make (...) (24 years ago, 12-Sep-00, to lugnet.starwars)

(...) Hi Andrew, I agree it doesn't make sense to transfer enmity for Jar Jar's personality over to his minifig incarnation (in-ABS-ation?), but we do it anyway. Personally, I have SO MUCH brain boiling hatred for Lucas's character, that it just (...) (24 years ago, 12-Sep-00, to lugnet.starwars)
