Awesome! Now I just gotta figure out something for a trash monster, and keep it hidden from the cats, who keep running off with the boy’s tub toys. Nothing like finding a squirty dolphin full of water in the middle of the kitchen floor…

I used to be a heathen and mix-and-match the new and old figures, and group them by “affiliation” (Rebels from the first movie, Rebels from Empire, bounty hunters, Cantina patrons, Stormtroopers, other Imperials, Ewoks…) in a bunch of shelves I had on the second floor of my loft apartment in Green Bay, when I was getting back into SW figure collecting just prior to Episode I. Sadly, I had no camera, digital or otherwise, with which to document this marvel of mass-produced plastic.

You need to post the video clip of you emptying your Christmas stocking when you were 5 and it was filled with Star Wars figures (all 6 that were available at the time). Oh My Lord! lol

You know what’s funny? I actually DO have a spare trash compactor! I owned the Death Star playset as a kid, but at some point it got thrown out and all I have left of it is the trash compactor. About three years ago, I picked up a Death Star, complete in the box. The next time we meet up, remind me and you can have one of them!

Well crap. Someone out there’s gotta have my trash masher!

I have the whole Death Star too, it’s just not out yet. I think the only thing I’m missing is the foam. ;)

Crap. You’ve got the trash masher, I’ve got the rest of the Death Star. Looks like you’ve even got the one-eyed wonder worm* in there, now you just need a bunch of cut-up pieces of foam.

* I probably should’ve waited until another nickname occurred to me
