Q: A 1978 Topps "Star Wars" trading card depicts C-3PO with rather large robot "private parts."
A: Fact. Although it appears to be the result of a photographic accident, and not a mischievous act, C-3PO does appear to have large privates in the image on the card. Topps later released a revision of the card with an airbrushed modification to C-3PO's midsection.
This card has never been printed — and the Hollywood Edition deck never shipped
