My Star Wars collection of 1/6 figures from Hasbro, Marmit, Medicom and Sideshow plus Kubrick and some Legos. Star Wars was the movie that changed many people's perception of how movies could be made and what entertainment was all about. Merchandising became a buzz word and many children as well as grown-ups were delighted as a result. Now you could take away a part of the film as a souvenir/memorabilia that you could cherish, something to remind you that for that two and a half hours or more, you were immersed in another world and you were privy to all that happened in that world! May the Force be with you :)
Anakin Skywalker,
boy slave and pod-racer with Hangar Deck Scrubber Droid, Padawan Obi-Wan Kenobi (only time he's without a beard), Padme Naberrie (Queen Amidala) at the battle on Naboo (if you used the word "Naboo" locally, you could get bitten up), Qui-Gon Jin, Jar Jar Binks (mesa thinkth George was loco when he thought of this chararcter), Pit Droids, Padme at the battle on Geonosis, Mace Windu (one of those rare movies where
Samuel L (M*therF****r) Jackson didn't use any swear words although you could still hear him utter the words in your head when he gave the dirty look) and
Anakin, Jedi Knight before he turned to the Dark side of the Force (interestingly,
Hayden Kristensen reunited with Samuel L Jackson in "Jumper")
Star Wars Episodes 2 & 3 Obi-Wan Kenobi (Ewan McGregor did a damn fine job portraying young Ben Kenobi), old Ben, Farmboy Luke Skywalker, Princess Leia, Han Solo and a very forgettable furry Chewbacca (let's not go there)
Watto, Senate Guard, Chancellor Valorum, Battle Droid and
Darth Maul
Count Dooku, Super Battle Droid and Palpatine (Darth Sidious)

Bounty Hunter Boushh, Han Solo just before being flash-frozen, George Lucas, R2D2 as waiter/drinks server and Slave Leia (hubba hubba - many a Star Wars fan's fantasy and used to good comic effect in Friends, The '70s show and recently in Chuck)

ReplyDeleteaahhh, perceptive you are. strong in the force you have become. more to come you will see :) enjoy hope you will
ReplyDeleteYes, you've inspired me to--go spend $ on eBay!
ReplyDeleteSW is my main thing, with a special focus on Vader. We're in the process of moving, which will open up a bit more space for 1/6 figures. So over the past couple weeks, I've been filling in missing pieces--Hasbro Imperials (The Death Star Droid is actually good-looking!), young Anakins, and the new Sideshow Hobbits.
Thanks again. Keep in touch!
Hi Greg, you are most welcome :) Always glad to be an inspiration and most humbled being able to share the passion with like-minded folks like yourself. That is the joy of blogging. Hope you'll keep visiting and all the best with the move. I just completed mine.
