It is in good vintage condition with minor signs of age. Please see photos for more details. Made in China 1:32 1 3/4” tall These two Homies had been together since High School. The problem was Julias father didn't like Romo and never blessed their relationship. He told her Romo was one of them cholo lowriders, and that he would never amount to nothing. Despite this Romo was always respectful to her father when they met. He was very patient and knew that someday Julia would be his, and her father would just have to deal with it. Julia stayed strong in her love despite her fathers constant negative remarks about Romo. She tried to explain to him that she loved Romo. She knew deep down that her father would not like any man that tried to take her away from him. She was very patient with Romo and his desire to throw her a big romantic wedding. Truth is she would have ran off with him to Vegas if he asked her, but she knew he wanted this wedding as much as she did. She also knew his gift at writing was special, and she encouraged him to follow his dreams...letting him know...she was down for him always. Romo liked to write...and so he went to community college to take writing classes. He like to write stories about life in the Barrio...especially love stories. He went on to finish at a four year college and eventually got a degree in English. Recently Romo sold his first screenplay for a move called "Roses and Red Chile...a Love Story." With the advance money from the movie deal, Romo is throwing Julia the biggest wedding to hit Barrio Quien Sabe. El Padrecito will be performing the ceremony at Our Lady de Guadalupe Church. Then they are gonna party for two days straight...music will include Mariachis, a Tejano band, a Salsa bands and Jokajams at D.J. There will be Lots of good comida and drink for the 2000 guests. They are serving enchiladas, birria de chivas, arroz and frijoles. There will be tacos and flautas for appetizers along with chips and salsa. The Homierollerz Carclub will escort the wedding party of 20 couples. After the first day of the reception...the two will head to Acapulco for their Honeymoon. I guess Julias father will just have to deal with a successful screenwriter for a son in law...even if he looks like one of them Lowrider Cholos. Homies are a series of pvc plastic collectible figurines representing various Chicano Mexican American characters. The line of toys was created by David Gonzales and based on a comic strip that Gonzales created featuring a cast of characters from his youth. Introduced in 1998, Homies were initially sold in grocery store vending machines and have become a highly collectible item, and have spawned many imitation toys. Gonzales created a bio story for each Homie to have their own story. He made sure that the Homies were authentic because they were based on Latinos in his community.
