Since I can’t edit the damned Birthday Thread title anymore, and since there’s only one thing that annually trumps New Year’s in the Star Wars collecting community,
especially this year, it’s time we start a thread honoring the momentous occasion of the
40th anniversary of the birth of the creator of
ICMG, the architect of
Hoth Han’s blue jacket (or is it brown?), the discoverer of
Greg(g); and celebrating our love affair with one Ol’ Cocky Bastard, JD’s heart and soul, 4 decades of
OCB, and the official welcoming of
Scott to the OLD fart’s club (pka
“The Canadians”)...
Happy 40th Birthday, Scott! Without getting too sappy, thanks for the friendship, memories, laughter, knowledge, generosity and fun for the past… oh hell, however long it’s been now. But most of all, thanks for two of my all-time favorite Star Wars figures. My collection would be forever incomplete without you being the beacon of light guiding Hasbro through their oft gloomy tunnel of darkness.
Now hopefully Dale or Nathan can dig up the dancing monkets, llamas, bananas, etc for the special occasion...
