The Smugglers wife, a HIC Christmas story!

Christmas came a little early for me this year, with traveling and family coming to town, my wife and i exchanged our gifts before the rush. There was the typical gifts from her, knowing that she married a guy that every Christmas turns into a kid demanding that the presents under the tree be filled with toys. And she does not disappoint, finding unique Star Wars collector pieces and odd things that she goes out of her way to find for my collection.

But this year there was a rather large box in the corner that i could not place. (I'm that ***** that can usually grab a package and tell you exactly what's inside. She has had to be very creative the last several years to prevent this.)

To my surprise upon opening the package, I found Han Solo frozen, staring back at me. I was confused, happy, excited, and moved. My wife had taken it upon herself to find a gift I had desired for many many years. One that she herself has asked me for, and that I damn near bought her this year!

I want to personally thank the members of the RPF for helping her with this endeavor. I would especially like to thank Allan and Ian for there help. My wife was so nervous about getting the right thing, and you both were outstanding in helping her find what she wanted. Ian, your cast is amazing, and I am very excited to build this bad boy! You both are examples of what makes this place great!

All in all I feel a bit like the kid from a Christmas Story, a pretty damn happy kid right now!
