The loss of Kenner is still mourned by many.

I didn't realize they had shut Kenner down, that's a shame.

Kenner was bought by Hasbro, and they shut the independent Kenner division down in 2000.

It's now an "imprint" of Hasbro.
Hmm, usually I can't think of anything for these contests. But now that it involves an avid hobby of mine, I'll try to come up with something.

Edit: I made a couple avatars on my phone but they turned out lousy.... update to come later.

Sorry for double-post, but I feel that my official entry needs its own post now...

Vintage Collection Bo-Katan Kryze figure, and live-action appearance in The Mandalorian.
Maybe someday I'll figure out how to do something animated.

Maybe someday I'll figure out how to do something animated.

on a phone i'm not sure but if you are on windows 10:
hold down the windows key + the Alt key, then press R
this starts the buildt-in windows screen recording,

it immediately records whatever you are watching/what is on your screen.
press the blue stop button when you have finished recorded something that could make for a good animated avatar.
this will save automaticly to your video folder (this PC >Videos>Captures)
Now go to https://ezgif.com/ and clik the video to gif icon and upload your clip.

you can continue to edit everything at ezgif, crop to 200x200, optimize it to get under 1mb,
fine-tune the length of your animtion et etc...

Is that Katee Sackhoff? *checks IMDb* Wow, it is!

I'd like to see her get a role on one of the Star Trek shows someday too.

Spoiler: Picard S2

We've already had James Callis, so the precedent has been set!

Yes, she was the voice in Clone Wars and reprised it in live action.

And her character aged extremely well, considering that she should be around the same age as Obi-Wan Kenobi, and probably about fifteen years older than Boba Fett!

The advantages of not spending nearly 2 decades in a desert, I suppose.

I actually still have my old TNG transporter playset back in the closet in my bedroom. I still get a kick out it, the disappearing effect is pretty impressive.
