I was cleaning out a box in the garage one day, and while sorting through the newly created mountain of crappy drawings and unfinished short stories, I found this little ad for a small Star Wars toy. Specifically, a C3PO Mini-Action Set.
Anyone who’s seen the Star Wars movies knows that the golden queen is to an action figure as Leona Helmsley is to human kindness. The most action related to C3PO you’re going to see is him walking jerkily around the screen and playfully pawing his partner-for-life, R2D2. The background doesn’t offer much, either; it’s minimalism at its finest. So what can one expect to do with this toy?
Well, you could see if C3PO was detachable and toss him in with your little green army men. I bet they could use some company.
