The Gunner Station is something I got fairly recently. I found it at Book Off. It was a low price so I decided to get it based on that. Not because I had any nostalgia for the Gunner Station. I do remember seeing it in stores but passing it because I decided Hasbro was milking the Star Wars teat for all they can. Also, back in the day I didn't have a lot of money, so I had to be very selective. I missed out on a lot of cool Star Wars collectibles back then.
Now that I am rolling in the dough baby, I can buy all the Star Wars I want!!! Yeah!!!!
Just kidding. I am doing well financially, so my Star Wars purchases can be more frequent and I can go back and get things like this Gunner Station. Was is a good purchase? Eh! It's alright. The figure is definitely a better sculpt than the first from Hasbro. The Gunner Station shoots torpedos, so that is pretty cool! Especially if you are a kid and want to play with your toy for hours, and hours!
But, I am not a child and do not wish to play with this for hours on end! I want to put this on display and have it look cool with my other Star Wars collections, have it blend in as part of the action, or environment.
So, how did I do? Does it blend in?
