Kea Moll
Released: 1985
Source: Star Wars Droids: The Adventures of R2-D2 and C-3PO
Accessories: Blaster, coin
Articulation: Neck, shoulders, hips.
Notes: Although Kenner did give Kea a blaster, it is far different from the shoulder mounted blaster that she used in 'The White Witch'

The Run Down: Kea Moll is the only female figure that made it into the Droids line even though each story arc had a strong female character to choose from. Jessica Meade would have been the second, but her figure was cancelled before it was released. Incidentally, Kea was also one of the few characters in Droids to be seen wearing more than one outfit; this being her regular attire and the other resembling something that a bounty hunter might wear. As far as this figure goes, Kenner did a good job on the body, but I always thought that the head was way off. I guess this may be due to sculpting limitations at that time, but really I wish it could have been better. If you look at the card art, you can see that Kea is supposed to be a very pretty girl, but the head on the figure just ended up looking kind of strange. All that aside, I think that the Kea figure features my favorite card art out of the whole Droids line. That headless alien in the background is really something!
