I was thinking the stickers belonged to some plastic model kit, like Airfix. Would be cool to find out where they came from. |

| hehe, love the Snowtrooper with Han arms  those minirig decals are a mystery I agree. It almost looks like the word 'ter' has been cut from a decal that said 'monster' or 'terrain' ?? Mybe from a playset construction set or moon base or smething ?? anyway, here's Ackbar with new smoking jacket, shhh don't tel Han !!  _________________________________________________ Paul F,

The stickers look familiar, but I just can't quite remember where I've seen them before.:scratch: |

| Lol at the hoth trooper with Han Arms. Actually it looks still quite OK, he just took of his gloves...  If you have a hoth trooper focus, you should buy it for the fun of it. |

Would be cool to find out where they came from. Hi Marco, If you sign up for the site where you've got that picture from, you can ask the seller what he might think. |

| OK, I knew Lando could sing, but I had no clue he could wail on guitar too! Wonder if the accessory is a Strat or some chiseled BC rich or something.  |

| I've often thought Weequay would have made a good guitarist. Hammerhead could be posed to play a mean bass too. |

| That ledy Han belonged to a TIG member. I believe he sold the gun through the classifieds and just had the figure left or something. I dont know why he did not initially take a new photo, but I think he eventually replaced the photo. He is a good guy though. _________________________________________________ Bryan

I thought it's supposed to be brownish or beige? |
