I was trying to find a base plate with a road on it, so I went rummaging through my brother's closet looking to see if he had one. I didn't find a good base plate, but instead I found Slave 1! I was so jealous when I found it, but after thinking about it, I do actually remember him buying it. I showed him when he got home from work, and he told me I could take some pictures with it. lol, I'm still jealous though.
