General Lando Calrissian action figure from the Star Wars was a
must for me. Not onlywas he an action figure of an ethnic male and
a celebrity...it was Billy Dee Williams! Billy Dee was one of the
hottest African American actors for a long time. One of the
first African American lead actors in a futuristic movies. For a long time African
Americans weren't portrayed in the futuristic movies. It might lead you to believe we
weren't going to be there. Now Billy Dee was older than I am but he was
an Icon in the black community. I was sad when I saw him do liquor ads on TV.
I hope he come to TV soon. So many great actors and actresses are coming to
TV now.
There are several different Lando Calrissian action figures on the market. but this is
the one that I purchased. I not going to tell you it is the best likeness. Since this is
the only one I own and I have never seen the rest in person, I can say. I just
know that I like him and it was about time I posted him.
He is made my Hasbro. He is on the GI Joe body. His costume is well made and
his boots come off which is not always the case with many of the Star Wars action
.figures.
So here he is in Johnston! He manages the local bank. He and his family will be moving here.
Lando: I have kept my first name. My last name is Martin.
Lando: I want you to meet my family! First my beautiful wife Melanie!
Melanie: Hi everyone!She is a Target 2011 Barbie Basics #002 AA that has been head swapped on to an Artsy body. She is wearing a Star Doll dress.
Melanie: These are our daughters Bethany and Brittany.
The girls: Hi! We are twins!They are the dancing Princesses Hadley and Isla who have been head
swapped on to the darker version of the the HSM Gabriella doll body. Yes,
there were two different color bodies. One was creamy colored and one was
more caramel colored.
So this is one of our new families. I had to show Lando because I am still waiting for
Texas A&M AA Cheerleader Ken.
