Anyone Else Kinda Love The Fact That When Han Solo Bragged To Obi-wan That He Did The Kessel Run In 12

Anyone else kinda love the fact that when Han Solo bragged to Obi-wan that he did the Kessel run in 12 parsecs, and while Obi-wan was like “yeah, right”, literally everyone else was utterly convinced.

Like, how good of a liar do you have to be, that when you tell a bald-faced lie, it eventually gets written into your actual, canonical backstory, thus making it true retroactively?

And thus everyone scrambled for a little while trying to figure out how he’d done it, how he’d done this run in a measure of distance, not time. And the actual explanation is that he was just lying when he said it?

It’s just wonderful.

Because it’s berry pink~

The actual Reborns Gundam has a myriad of gimmicks, where as it’s matching kit… really doesn’t. To correct the, my version has: Set of 4 Fangs in the shield. Rear skirt has a set of 4 Fangs. Side skirts are a pair of funnel-type weapons. Alt-mode’s cannons double as Funnels- It’s rear fins also have a set of 4 smaller funnels. The claws on the alt-mode can extend and project fire, etc. For the fun of it, I used blue polycaps.

Alpha-class Xg-1 Star Wings were a type of starfighter utilized by the Empire. One of the first general purpose fighters used by the Imperial Navy, the Star Wing performed well against Rebel forces and was an excellent craft. Unfortunately, its unique position in Imperial forces left it to operate without comprable support, keeping assault gunboats less popular that TIE fighters.
