Default Hello from the Philippines

Hi guys.

I got hooked on SW when I was ~10 years old in the mid 90's. I had a few POTF2 stuff but I lost em all when I moved here to Manila. Never bought anything since.

A few weeks ago, I went to the local store looking for some clones. I wanted to buy a SS Captain Rex I remembered seeing before. But I now know I waited too long because he was sold out I bought the SS clone commander instead.

I had never yet seen one of these guys up close and - compared to my old POTF2 stuff - I was just blown away

However... it struck me that my commander had no one to command. So I got a sergeant. Then... I realized that my guys were kind of "generic" so I need a "unique" guy with a name And that's how it begins.

Sorry this is long. Greetings again
