Lando Sighting

There has been a Lando sighting! After almost 10 months on the waitlist, there has now been a sighting. That's right, I have finally found a Lando Calrissian action figure. Luc and I have been searching for a Lando Calrissian action figure since his coworkers decided to name our yet to be seen child, Lando Magic, last summer.

Until today, we have only found the action figure on the internet. We weren't wanting/needing it enough to buy it online, hoping we would someday come across one in person. Plus we knew someone might be convinced to pick one up when he goes to the Star Wars Weekend at Disney in June. (Sorry "J," but your wife might have volunteered you. Maybe the whole carpool did, I don't remember at this point.)

Since last summer we have been looking for the Lando action figure on most trips to Target or Toys R Us. Not every trip to Target, but those that found us in the toy area generally brought about a search through the Star Wars action figures as well as other action figures. (Luc was known for hiding the action figures he wanted behind other, unrelated, action figures until he could convince his grandma to buy it for him when he was younger.) However the search always came up without a Lando.

So while at Wal Mart today, I found not one, but two Lando Calrissian action figures! So we now have three Lando Calrissian action figures (Toys R Us also yielded a find. It was a busy day looking for baby shower gifts.) to go with Darth Vader, Luke Skywalker, and Han Solo.

Monday will be 10 months on the waitlist for Lando. Hopefully finding the Lando action figure will bring good things as we begin 10 months waiting to see our Lando for the first time.
