Greedo was my first action figure. My mom bought him (oho mama the first of many eh) for me at "3-D Discount Store" (is that like...THREE times the discount? is that what that meant? And was it all really that cheap?).

After that she had to visit - I don't know - a dentist's office or something. I waited out in the car, excited about my first Star Wars figure. I got ol' Flabby Fingers out and played on the roof of the car.

When mom came out, I got in the car, but left him on the roof. We drove off, leaving Greedo far behind. Was my attention deficit so profound that I could possibly FORGET I LEFT A NEW TOY ON THE ROOF? Apparently. At least until I got home and noticed his absence.

HOW FORGETFUL WILL I BE WHEN I AM OLD?

Anyway, my "next first figure" was Ben Kenobi, complete with "lightsaber-inside-arm" action and "authentic plastic cape".

I did not tell him about the Greedo incident.
