Personal Observations
Here we have what may be one of the nicest looking C-3PO figures ever. When I first saw him, I was a little disappointed that he wasn't as shiny the the original Kenner figure, but his colouring has since grown on me. C-3PO looks great standing and talking to his friends or toddling after R2-D2, but unfortunately has one annoying problem. He can't sit! The middle picture above shows him bending over as far as he can go without risking serious damage to his legs. That's as close as he can come to a sitting position. It's too bad, because he looks so good otherwise. But if you aren't concerned about whether he can sit or not, then he's still a beautiful looking mini version of the movie droid and has loads of play value. |
