It's time to get over the
Star Wars sadness that has occured over the last few months and embrace
it fully. Seth lives and breaths the force and there is nothing this
super hero fan can do about that. So let the Galactic heroes collection for Seth's Birthday and Christmas commence.
Its not been that long since i wrote the last post including the
pictures of the figures he already had but Ive already managed to get my
hands on all of these and ended up with a second Millenium Falcon
(which is useless to me). It seems that these are far easier to get hold
of than the Super hero Squad figures, which for Seth will be great news but for me and Opeie its a bit frustrating.
I may not be into Star Wars
much but i do love these little figures, the main problem i have though
is that apart from episodes IV-VI, i have no idea of the names of most of
the characters making it very difficult to keep track of the collection.
This will probably mean somewhere down the line i will end up buying
characters i already have. Obviously multiple storm troopers would be a
bonus but who wants 1 jar jar binks let alone 2???
Collecting these has reminded me of all the figures i loved of mine, my favourites when i was younger were Max Rebo the leader of Jabba's house band (the blue elephant looking thing with the trunk playing the crazy circle piano) and the Gamorrean Guard (the Green Pig Faced fellow wielding an axe from my last Galactic Heroes post.
I was always playing with my Star Wars figures and now I'm thinking about it i dont think my love of marvel really got properly going until my mid teens so i guess i see why Seth is so into it. As much as he goes on about Star Wars if i ask him what he wants to watch on the TV, 9 times out of 10 he will say Spider-Man so maybe there's still hope.
