Kurt’s Blog: Rey Searched for Answers…I Searched for Rey
Posted on by Producer Kurt in Kurt's Blog

Why else would a grown man be celebrating in the middle of Kmart?

Yes…#WheresRey ? I found her…I FOUND HER.

I swear it’s for my son for a Valentine’s Day…I swear 🙂

The hunt for Rey has been on since December 18th…yes, I’m the guy who would sporadically visit Targets & Walmarts just to scope out the Star Wars stuff in the toy aisle…just to “see what they have”. My search was for Rey…

I would come up empty-handed time after time…after time…and then, Saturday afternoon, I’m at Kmart on Hickman…looking for 3M picture hanging strips…but I thought, hey, why not take a trek down the toy aisle. I haven’t checked in at least 3+ weeks…

And there it was….Rey…I couldn’t believe it. I looked around to see if I was being Punk’d or something…but no…like Indiana Jones finding the Holy Grail…I have found it.

PS. Other adults will give you weird looks when they see a strange man-child celebrating over a Star Wars action figure.
