That piece of cardboard had the number VC67 on the back, and the collecting community erupted into utter anarchy the likes of which haven’t been seen outside of ESPN during their Y2K test. (The NFL mini-helmets were the best.) Alas, in 2011, Hasbro put it on a piece of cardboard and released it with 13 other figures in the Revenge of the Jedi Death Star set. It’s essentially something that you would get out of one of those plastic eggs from the vending machines at the front of a grocery store. The figure itself is nothing more than a repack of the accessory from 1999’s POTF2 Freeze Frame Death Star Droid (which is photoed above). There’s a lot of “pants” in his courtesy titles come to think of it. As I started to write this, I found myself just re-writing the VC66 - Salacious Crumb review. They are both part of a completed numbered Vintage Collection set, but were very difficult to acquire. Where I was shortsighted was that the “story” is essentially same for both figures. Aside from the technical problem that Braniac’s idea presented, I felt the “story” of these figures were compelling enough that they should each get their own moment in the sun. He felt that the figures themselves are so boring that the should be reviewed in tandem.

Nomadscout and I had an internal debate on how to handle the two SDCC mini-figures as part of this Vintage Collection retrospective. But with all due humility, I must go behind the scenes in this case for no other reason than to meet my contractually obligated word count.
I don’t really like delving into the “behind the scenes” of Bantha Skull that often because I feel it smacks of arrogance as if the inner workings of this site are at all of interest to our readers as opposed to the subject matter we cover.
