Flashback: Christmas, 1977 (maybe '78...). Young Tikihut27 prepares to open his gifts. A distinctive package- MUST be the Star Wars figures he'd been dreaming of every night. Paper flies- can it be? IT IS! Two of them! JOY OF JOYS!!

But wait... Here is Han Solo, here is Luke Skywalker. But the packages have been opened, the small plastic blasters have been removed!

Sobbing, young Tikihut27 holds the figures up on a beseeching manner to his mother, saying "They can't fight! And these are both GOOD GUYS!!"

His mother's response- "Well, why can't they just play together nicely?"

It was at this moment he resolved to run away and join the Army at first opportunity.
