Oh ...
I'll take the life-sized, perfectly detailed replica of Princess Leia as Jabba slave.

Maybe the true test of Star Wars Geekdom (and as much as I like Star Wars I think I would fail) is if you can tell exactly who's lightsaber that is just from the picture.

I know it's not Darth Vaders, but is it Luke's from Episode IV&V.

If I have passed please pm me my Star Wars Geek Badge ;)

P.S. This dent, tell me how it got there if you can.....
That wouldn't, perchance, have happened when half-blind Han Solo accidentally ignited his jet pack, and he went flying across the sand into the side of Jabba's barge?

But it seems that him, helmet and all get eat up by the sand creature after that.

If it didn't happen or was referenced to in the first three movies, it didn't happen. Everything else is crap.

Boba walked up to Vader and said, "I'm the great tuba artist Roga Boba."

Vader said, "You are not!" and bashed him on the head.

I'm sure your wondering who lives and who dies, well, I'm not going to tell you.
Neither dies because we see Boba get eaten by that sand creature in the ground thing when he bounces off Jabba's barge.

My younger brother collects lightsabres. From the cheap ones you can buy at Wal-mart to the non working replicas as pictured in the 1st post (with display case). My favorites in his collection are the ones that the light beam grows longer when you turn them on. They look really cool when turned on in a dark room.

How much does he pay for the collectible replicas? Those usually cost up $600 or more.

I dont know what he paid for the one in the case...however I do know he paid over $120 for the ones where the blade appears to grow and shrink like these:

****edit*****
I just got of the phone with him. He says that the non working ones go for around $35 unless you are talking about the special edition stuff (which has gold plating). Those are the several hundred dollar ones you are talking about and no....he says he doesn't have any of those.... 8)

That was where Darth Vader hit it with York #3 it at an orchestral reading session! :shock:
Instead of talking to your plants, if you yelled at them would they still grow, but only to be troubled and insecure?
