Holy crap, I didn't know Kenner did that! I've never heard anyone tell me about them replacing broken toys. Considering the popularity and extreme play-value of SW figures and vehicles (not a single SW toy of mine from back then survived unscathed) they would have went bankrupt if everyone had their broken toys replaced though I suppose. Bummer.

I tease her by saying that the money I could've earned from selling those toys would have financed a very posh retirement community. Now she gets a cardboard box.
Geez, this for the woman who pulled you out of school to just to catch the first showing of ROTJ? For shame.
At least give her a plastic bag in case it rains
