I was really surprised and disappointed that they didn't make a line of Star Wars minidolls back when they were doing the girls of Star Wars marketing push with other toys. Lego's use of the Star Wars license is pretty tame. Maybe they are really boxed in since Hasbro is so entrenched.

The incremental cost of designing the Cal minifig is irrelevant, yes. But Lego has a hard limit on how many sets they can manufacture at a time and an inflexible limit on how many they can market at a time. They have a lot of bases to cover and maybe some restrictions on the Star Wars license...

I can easily imagine that the secret service has a facility of their own that they could use, but I don't know that they do.

Stormy Daniels' testimony surprised me. When I heard years ago that he'd paid to cover up an affair with a pornstar, they called it an affair and my concept was pretty much that. Biases of mine will show here, but Donald Trump and a pornstar read very easily to me as people with no...

I mean, sure. But since Star Wars is not talking about the Arrakis drug when they say spice.... Spice is mentioned in the open title of Powerpuff Girls. It is mentioned in "Spice World". It is reasonable to think Lucas had read Dune when he wrote the throwaway line that C-3PO says in Episode...

I don't think that is really fair or looking at honest economics of running a toy company. They have polybags and $10 sets to make sure they aren't overlooking customers on the lower budget, but they're never going to accommodate "customers on the lower budget who want to get every character"...

Spice gets mentioned on a lot of shows.

Is the issue that you have to buy a $160 set when you just want Cal? You will get him cheaper on Bricklink, but maybe not too cheap. In this wave, they made several minifigs of characters that people would like, but they didn't have a set for and just stuck them as bonuses. You can view it...

I am pretty sure he has said so lately.

For me it was weird that the whole sand people thing seemed to be teaching him to be a better man, right? And he came out and said, "I've had an apostrophe. I'm a better man now. I will become a gangster." I kinda would have had him be something that looks like a better man. Like, take down...

Yeah and that is another thing. You really can't have a first year ensign as your frontrunner for First Officer just because you think she'd do alright at it.

Of course it could.

I read on a Reddit that one of the clippings he had about his daughter was dated 1983, so canonically he already had a wife or ex-wife and a daughter before Ghostbusters. It SEEMED like they were all bachelors. Venkman surely was. But I cannot remember that it ever really said so.

Well I don't ever seen anyone downstairs giving orders to Commander Stamets and he seems to be in charge of any science going on. Culber IS the CMO.
