*is there a better phrase for this, I actually don't like using this one.

How about a Hans Solo on the cheap, Hans Solo at bargain basement prices, the Hans Solo you couldn't give away. The Hans Solo you have when you're not having a Hans Solo (aka Claytons Hans Solo). Any of these tickle your proverbial?

"A cheap man's Hans Solo", or better yet "A cheap Hans Solo" that's nice! :D

Thank you.

Thank you.

For the love of George! It's HAN! Not Hans! He's Corellian, not German! :smack:

Oh, and I enjoyed HS, and immediately saw Hal as a Han poser. A wannabe...a Han-a-be, if you will. I'm looking forward to starting HS2.
I also see Clunk as a fusion of R2-D2 an C-3PO. He's a polite and sensitive android, capable of interacting with humans, like 3PO, but with the guts and scrappy resourcefulness of R2.
