Thank you! So, I partied a bit too much this weekend with the kids on a sleepover. Every time I have that hangover feeling, I think of Bill Dee and his
Colt 45 Commercials. Not sure why since I've never even tried malt liquor, but Lando just seems like he can put 'em away.
To honor the occassion I'm dedicating today's post to the smoothest dude in the galaxy...
Lando Calrissian. First up is the original, which has a cherry card and minty bubble. But Lando has a bit of a hangover himself here with that weird growth/residue that gets on really old plastic pretty much covering his pants. Anyone know what this stuff is? I have seen it on a few loose vintage figures, but never inside a sealed bubble before. Anyone know of any tricks to fix this? I thought about leaving it in the hot sun to see if it burns away. It's a shame, because the rest of the card is oh so pretty. At least Lando's still smiling about it. Maybe this is the real reason he has to change into the skiff guard duds. Nothing overly special on that one - nice flat card and bubble, but there is a tear up at the peg hole. I do like the way they packaged these removable helmet figures though, with the extra bubble section at the top. This second version of Lando also has clean pants, so he's got a leg up on his counterpart.
