More than a year ago, I wrote about our excitement in landing the iconic Greedo for our Star Wars Lego collection. The Rodian was a missing piece in a number of missions, and quickly assumed a position of prominence in some Rebel-Imperial scenarios.
To bolster his appearance, we found out that a company called Firestar Toys created custom arms for minifigures. The new limbs featured figure-appropriate printing instead of the traditional solid-color Lego arms, extending the design of key characters.
We took the plunge and bought a pair for Greedo, and you can see that the impact is significant. I questioned how much of a difference custom arms could make, but I feel like the addition makes the minifigure more "whole."
Now ... let's see if this new arm can help him shoot at Han first ...
