Hey look! It's the bounty hunter who's so nice, I made him twice! And yes, I did give him the correct gun (you'd be surprised how many hard-core SW fans think he has the same rifle in both TESB and ROTJ).

(...) I hate to break this to you, but the monkey model doesn't have room for a 1x14 brick, and I can't see one anywhere in the goldfish, so unless it's used in the other four unphotographed models, I don't think such a beast exists.
