Among the many ridiculous things my friends and I believed, was the notion that a being able to ‘stop its molecules,’ as our scientific vernacular had it, would be able to freeze itself and thus remain suspended in midair.
During backyard games of Star Wars figures, this strange – and useless – ability was ascribed to Hammerhead. How and why, I have no recollection. But it did give the otherwise peripheral figure of Hammerhead a peculiar touch of class.
Yeah, I never quite figured out what to do with Hammerhead. While vaguely interesting, he certainly wasn’t Boba Fett.
Especially the original Boba Fett,that had the detachable rocket and that you had to send away for.
