This series of figures is meant as a tongue-in-cheek humorous group. When I used to play with my toys as a kid, my friends and I would make up our own stories and we would have our own adventures. Over the years, I eventually collected not only the entire Vintage line, but I also gathered many of my playmates' toys as they got older. Many of my earliest customs came from those play sessions, as we would try to find uses for why we now had 2 Luke Skywalkers, or what to do when someone broke his Darth Vader. I hope you enjoy this series of figures.

• Chewbacca
  
• some soldier from the CORPS line (bazooka)
  

A sad story with a hapy ending, really. During the winter months, we would go out and play in the snow with our toys. Many battles were won or lost in the "battlefield" across the street from our house--really the field belonged to the VFW building--but one day, I lost my Wookie! I was quite upset, but I eventually begged and pleaded with my mother to buy me another Chewbacca figure, which she did. (YAY!)

Come springtime, though, I was walking down the street one day, and I found the lost toy lying on the side of the road! (YAY, again!!) A car had run over him, but all the pieces were there! So, in a true "early customs" move, I grabbed some SCOTCH tape, and he was back together, although with a crack in his head! But what to do with 2 Chewbaccas? Well, I named this one Thanagar (after the planet that the DC superhero Hawkman came from) and he was an old..but injured..friend of Chewbacca's!
