FLAMES! FLAMES ON THE SIDE OF MY FACE!

So it looks like I will not be getting a Pellaeon figure in the new set of Star Wars minis. The set titled Imperial Entanglements<. Because that apparently that would make too much sense. (They made Thrawn sets and sets ago, and there's a new Thrawn in IE. Why does WOTC insist on giving me Holmes but not Watson?)

Oh, but do you know who is in Imperial Entanglements? Go ahead, guess. That's right, Kyp Frakking Durran, eating up a Rare slot. And what makes it extra galling is that one of the upcoming sets is Jedi Academy, the books Kyp appeared in. Oh Kyp, you emo-boy dark-siding sun-crushing Gary Stu, my hate is so strong I should be able to shoot force lightning out of my fingers.

When I started this post the FLAMES were just about Pellaeon being snubbed (again!), but then I saw this. We have to band together to stop this abomination. Such a thing cannot be.

IS NOTHING SACRED?

What's next, remaking The Princess Bride?

(Also, I did not yearn for a wee Pellaeon until I knew I could not have one. Grrr.)

Pellaeon gets no love. He doesn't even have an action figure AFAIK, and they're down to making Random Alien #3 by now.

Once this set comes out they'll have made two wee!Thrawns. The first one has even has him with a wee little ysalimiri around his shoulders!

Oops--I just realized that the link I meant to include with "IS NOTHING SACRED?" didn't.
