| This may a odd topic but I'm just curious to know if anyone had any nicknames for their vintage figures. I know as a kid The obvious ones were Walrusman was "Butt mouth" and Nine Numb was "P***y mouth" |

| Good God, I'll never look at Nein Nunb the same way................
Funny but I don't remember actually nicknaming anyone. I'm pretty anal retentive so I'd use the proper name and probably be the jerk kid who corrected everyone else |

Nooooo, how to ban that out of my head again?!!!  I used the real names, but pronounced them all in a dutch way at that time. Darth Vader is probably the only character which I pronounced in the right way, technically spoken.....as Vader is a dutch word after all (''father'').  |

| Hahahah sorry that I've brought up such terrible childhood memories. Although you gotta wonder what they were thinking when the created the Walrus man character. That character had an instant "kick me" sign taped to his back.
Wow. Learn something new everyday. I had no idea Vader was Father in Dutch. |

| I'm hecka lauging at how huge you posted that pic!!! Yeah stoopid iPhone auto corrected my spelling. I apologize to all the Dengar fans in advance but Dengar was "Hippie Den" because he had his homeless backpack and homeless scarf on his head. It is true that kids have wild imaginations. I'll have to think of more names we use to use for characters as kids. And the fruit doesn't fall far from the tree either. My oldest boy plays with the newer toys and has renamed Ki-Adi-Mundi to "Peanut Head" I have no idea why or where he came up with that name  |

I just called em what they were. Plus I never had that many to begin with growing up with the toys, so I was happy with the few I did get. |
