Did anyone else know this...

I knew about Hans blaster from reading about it on RS and the sculpters name in Dagobah is very cool. Only recently found out about the Tattoo on Jabbas arm and this one as well.

Who else knew the PD 's legs popped up when you give him a gentle tap, crazy.

Had me there for a moment :lol:

Well it was my pleasure sharing the Han Hoth gun fitting holster with u mate 8)

I just took it for granted everyone knew :!:
Discovering this feature as a kid was just fantastic :wink: It really made Han Hoth unique and defo one of my favs

I never knew about the FX-7 rotating arm so it was an educational eve for both of us :idea:

The INT-4 mini-rig was designed to fit inside the AT-AT. And Kenner also conceptualised but never produced another mini-rig called the Cargo Handler which was designed to fit inside the front prongs of the Falcon.

Now this one I knew I can remember at 6 years old being excited that I had the ship to go inside my At-At!

:lol: Sorry Ian, I couldn't resist.

Should share it on FB groups, i reckon you'd hear the gentle tapping of PD's in the distance soon after. :lol:

In all seriousness I had seen the cargo handler before but never knew that the INT-4 was to go inside the AT-AT. 8)

Oh, you should DEFINITELY share the 'pop-up power droid'... It's 2016's Black Wampa, you've got to do it!

You could spin some bullshit about them being nearly 40 years old so that spring has gone on some of them, and everyone will be tapping the top and being gutted that they've got one with the spring gone...

...and this my friends is why you must listen to The Vintage Rebellion Podcast (although when this was covered it was called the SWFUK Podcast).
I think it was either episode 11 or 12.
We talk vintage and lots of it

The above comment was for the Han Hoth. I could say exactly the same though for the INT 4 and the Falcon hatch, both of which have been mentioned in previous episodes.

You don't know what you're missing, give it a go.

The Black Wampa's real though isn't it or don't tell me that was also a joke :roll: ? Sent you a message the other day as well Matt.

I knew about the INT 4 as it was one of the reasons I was so keen to get one as a kid!!

I saw the cargo thing for the falcon years ago...though I probably would have wanted one as a kid if they'd released it, looking at it I don't think it's that great a toy

Thought I would bump this thread with the discussion about Leia Boushh and Han Hoth going on. I think the creators of Solo a Star Wars story have read this thread and seen the MF escape pod. :lol:
