Star Wars: Power of the Force Flashback Aunt Beru Action Figure
While adoptive mothers and stepmothers are sometimes maligned in fiction, inStar Warsthe opposite is true. At the request of Obi-Wan Kenobi, Aunt Beru and her husband, Owen Lars, took in young Luke Skywalker and raised him as their own nephew. Dressed in a simple, brown overdress and blue jacket, Aunt Beru has a great resemblance to the movie's character. She also wears the same boots, and also has a pair of pants. She has movable legs, arms, and head, and her hands can grasp the handles of her service droid. There is an accompanying "flashback photo" of Aunt Beru and Shmi Skywalker, the mother of Luke's father, Anakin. Aunt Beru is a little over 3.5 inches tall.--Louise Carter
