From Bricks To Bothans

by Ace Kim

Wait for a sale. Professor Z shows up elsewhere; Submarine Finn sucks; and while Tony is a neat little ship, it's not enough to justify the high price tag. But you can bet if I can find this on clearance, I'll be buying armloads of them to amass an army of Tony Trihulls.
