A Most Unusual Thing
This is a picture of the most recent Star Wars Jawa action figure, in it’s packaging:
< Jawa
The other day, in Target, I found a most unusual example of this same figure on the shelves:
< Jawa?
At first I thought it was a very, very unusual manufacturing error, but after some inspection it was obvious that someone had done this intentionally. It seems they had removed some tape on the back just enough to squeeze out the figure and replace his head and weapon (with the head from a GI Joe figure I believe), and then packaged it back up with such skill it wouldn’t be obvious to most people it had ever been opened.
My guess is this was done as a gag, and then returned to the store in the hope it would be restocked.
Discuss.
Epic Loot
< Score!
There’s a shot of the loot we brought back with us. It completely filled our large suitcase, one of our carry ons and 75% of the other carry on. The stuff we brought with us (clothes, toiletries etc) was jammed into a duffel.

– figurines of Nagi (from Kannagi Shrine Maidens) and Nelliel (from Bleach)

– 4 Sony PSP games (including Wizardry Empire III and Ikki Tousen)
– 2 anime ‘key sketches’ (visible in lower right) including one from Keroro Gunso and one of Uryu from Bleach
– 7 Pinky St figures (KLS collects these) including one of their Monster Hunter ones
– Revoltech figure of Haruhi Suzimaya in her bunny suit from the (Linda Linda Linda inspired) ‘school band’ episode
