Happy Memorial Day!

Sorry I haven't written in a while, but I have gotten sidetracked from the Star Wars world. Here is a little holiday comic I found on starwars.com:

Merrimack, and the Battle of Fredericksburg                             

Death Star Play Station

The Death Star Play Station was sold in 1978 for originally $17.99. This particular playset is worth a fortune because it was more rare then many others at the time. The toy originally came equipped with a trash compacter, laser cannon, and a rope swing so there are no shortage of features.

Figure of the week: Princess Leia

The original Princess Leia was released in 1978 in the original 12 back (first 12 figures).The same figure ran all the way through the  Return of the Jedi series and the tri-logo series. Princess Leia is one of those figures that has no major variations and was a farely simple character in its day. The figure is only worth about $15 but it is still a must have for collections.

Happy Saint Patrick's Day

Cherry Bomb Toys

If you are ever in Victoria, Canada you need to check out this awsome store; Cherry Bomb Toys which specializes in star wars toys. They have had over 5 different Vinyl Cape Jawas over the years and are sponsoring a toy show on May 1st. I bought an original Luke Skywalker there and the condition was pretty good being like a C-7. And I only paid $32! So if you are ever in Victoria, BC check this store out. Here is a link to their website.http://www.cherrybombtoys.com/toyshow.html

Figure of the week: Logray the Ewok

Logray was made in 1983 in the Return of the Jedi and the tri-logo series. The figures doesn't have many variations except for minor paint variations. Some people think that the ewoks are scary. I don't know how I feel about them. Please tell me how you feel about the ewoks in the comment in the space below. Thanks!

Star Wars Frames

Star Wars Frames is one of the coolest books this year. A 6 book collection in an engraved wooden box with a hand signed George Lucas Seal is something no collector can pass up. Each book has been filled with hand-selected pictures that are from George's point of view. There are limited quantities of this book;1138 copies to be exact which is a tribute to George's first screenplay, THX 1138. Sadly, this book is $3000 dollars but it is truly one of a kind. If you have this kind of money, don't miss this rare oppurtunity. You can buy one at starwars.com. Please watch this cool video on how they made the book http://starwars.com/video/view/001214.html
