Friends of Mungo

Good old Mungo Baobab! Prominent member of the Baobab Merchant Fleet and former master of C-3PO and R2-D2, Mungo was featured as the central character in episodes 10-13 of Droids and in the 2 part special 'The Great Heep'.
Mungo very nearly had his own Kenner action figure back in 1986. In fact, a prototype was even produced, but Kenner's Star Wars line came to an end before the figure could see production.
Today, Droids action figures don't stand much of a chance of finding their way into the modern Hasbro action figure line. Hasbro has even stated that there is very little likelihood that any more Droids figures will be made beyond 2009's Boba Fett and BL-17 set.
But never say never! There is hope! Years ago, a fan started a campaign to have an action figure made of an extremely obscure character named Willrow Hood (Ice Cream Maker Guy). He didn't give up, other fans got on board, and today we have a brand new action figure of the man, complete with ice cream maker!
It can be done! If you are a fan of Droids, I ask you to consider becoming a Friend of Mungo. Make his name know, and maybe, just maybe we will finally be seeing an all new Droids figure in the not so distant future!
