Jim Austin AKA "Lunk"

Lunk - Robotech 3 3/4 Action Figure

I found the Lunk Action Figure on Craigslist. This guy was selling his whole collection of Robotech Figures. Lunks Action Figure seemed a little awkward figure as he was really hard to stand and also his mid torso was always lopsided. I guess because of the rubber band inside him that keeps the figure together is almost worn and really old.

Scott and Lunk

During the aftermath of the Second Robotech War, Lunk served as a certified Bio-Maintenance Engineer for the returning Robotech Expeditionary Force on Earth. It was during the Invid Invasion when Lunk froze in combat and while his friend was slaughtered by Invid. Although he knew any effort to save him would have been useless, he nevertheless blamed himself for his death. He made a vow to deliver his friend's book, "Inherit the Stars" to his father, Ralph Nader. His guilt however, kept him from fulfilling his promise for many, many years.


Rand and Lunk

Lunk developed a reputation as the village coward, something he had to live with until Scott Bernard's group arrived and helped him fight off a gang of local thugs. He joined Scott's band of freedom fighters, and proved time and time again, that he was no longer the weak-willed fool he once was.
