In our hunt to complete our Solo: A Star Wars Story action figure collection, we picked up this cool Han Solo and Chewbacca (Mimban… aka “muddy”) 2-pack via eBay. The packaging looks, aptly, like it has been dragged through the mud a little, so we scored it nice and cheap.

The 2-pack depicts, obviously, the pivotal scene where Han and Chewie meet for the very first time. The figures have interesting paint apps… i.e., they look like they are covered in mud, meaning they are likely more appealing to the completist rather than someone just looking for figures of hero & villain characters. Although not strictly part of the relevant movie scenes, the set also includes an “assembly-required” weapon accessory, that is styled to match the other military hardware seen during the Mimban segments of the movie.

As much as I really like the sculpts on most of the main line of action figures from Solo: A Star Wars Story, some really key characters or characters in specific outfits were not available as single-packed options.

This “Mission on Vandor-1” action figure 4-pack from the Solo took a bit of hunting – in fact, I was only able to get it while traveling to a conference in Switzerland… I make it a habit to hunt out any local comic and toy stores when I happen to be overseas for business/education trips.

The 4-pack includes a Han in his cold-weather Vandor gear, Qi’ra in her jacket and pants that she wears in the latter half of the movie, another Range Trooper, and Warwick Davis’ character Weazel. Great detail on Han’s jacket and belt, and our collection feels a bit more complete having a Crimson Dawn version of Qi’ra as well as the Corellian teenager version that was released as a single Force Link 2.0 figure.

Not surprisingly, I love the Star Wars Itty Bittys line by Hallmark. While the single characters were fairly easy to find at stores locally, the two-packs didn’t show up at the usual places. After wondering if I would have to buy this Han Solo and Princess Leia set from overseas, I stumbled across it at our local convention – for less than retail! So happy to finally have Han and Leia for my Itty Bittys collection – they are so cute!

Both these Star Wars ties were gifts from family. I wore them during a phase in the mid ’90s, along with an assortment of superhero neckties… maybe one day in the future I’ll find an appropriate venue or excuse to don them again. They were made by Davenport, who sold them in both Australia and New Zealand.
