Last night my two year old daughter pointed to a vintage action figure and asked “Dada, this one?”

I said, “That’s Gamorrean Guard”.

She paused and replied in her best sing-song voice: “HI ‘GOOD MORNING’ GUARD!!”.

This one’s for you, kiddo.

It’s Weequay’s world. We only live in it. You got that?

The vintage Rancor Keeper action figure is a genuine slice of Star Wars goodness. But I have to say that the sculpt they came up with resembles more of an early-career Peter Boyle than the grubby bruiser (Paul Brooke) that was on screen in Return of the Jedi. Maybe it’s for the best, eh?
