I actually saw that 3CPO w/o the hand and the guy was asking like $15 for it and I kept telling him it was worthless and he insisted it was worth a lot more than what he was selling if for :scratch:

You have to wonder whether errors like the Greedo above are all genuine, or if some are the product of a bored employee on the assembly line 'having a laugh' (It must have been a pretty mind numbing putting these things together).
