However, I tire of the revisionist history that Hasbro takes with non-character head sculpts. Someone point any Hoth Rebel background player with "van dyke" facial hair to me. I seem to recall actual beards, 'staches and clean shaven types. Instead of those, we get what facial folliciles are popular now.
