That's a pretty classic image there.

Now I think you should go take a picture of where the figures are now.  One in the bath tub, the other one lying somewhere next to the Pokemon guys.....missing accessories, bent into impossible poses.   ;D

Actually, I've been pretty good about him putting away toys, and they are with his other SW figures and toys.  They are not broken - yet.  I can't say that Clone Troopers, Han and Padme haven't lost limbs (or heads) in the past, but these are so far, so good.  I do have Luke's gun in my purse, and I should probably remove the lightsaber as well.  What I've done in the past is take the identification card and the small pieces that go with the figure then baggie them in a "zipper snack bag".  That way when he's older, and more "responsible" he can have the accessories.  There are a few lost guns, rifles and lightsabers, though. 
Thanks Tamidala :)  He looks just like his father though.  I never thought I would have a blue eyed, blonde son!

The problem with America is stupidity I'm not saying there should be a capital punishment for stupidity, but why don't we just take the safety labels off of everything and let the problem solve itself

Maybe it's just wrong of me to think this, but what would it look like to BURN a figure out of it's packaging... I'm thinking end of summer/Labor Day Weekend BBQ packaging... see the plastic bubble slowly melt...


I have issues...

Nice, Ben!  No way in hell I'm ever buying or trading for one of your figures!  :P

I'm still waiting for Jared to put up all the pix we took for this at our JD SoCal meeting a week and a half ago...
