A few pics to celebrate SW!!
« on: May 26, 2007, 01:48:22 AM »
Ok here are 3 pics that will show you my first, very first encounter with anything SW, i was probably 0 years old in 1978 and my 7 year old brother got this wall paper for his room after watching SW back in the old days.

So this is the very first SW thing i ever saw, even before ANH.  The wallpaper is still there and almost 30 years old.

HAPPY BDAY STAR WARS!!!

When I redecorated my room a few years back, I found a wallpaper that looked a bit like the one up there.
My mum refused to buy it though....and looking back, I'm glad she did.
I love Star Wars, but have it on my wall as a 16 year old girl, not such a good idea :P ::)

I have the Empire Strikes Back twin comforter.....I just can't find it at the moment. It's faded, it's shows it's authenticity. I guess I can show some current photos. (The guy who re-mortaged my has said...."Wow, now there's equity here!" And he had to try the FFX ANH Vader. I think I got an extra 10K for him just being allowed to play with it!)



I realize I have posted these here before, but I thought I'd show my honouring of the Greatest story of all time. ;D

Yes. But, I have to go right now. I will on the next post. I have some work to do. Back later! 8)

Thanks guys! Ani, I sorta didn't have any bills or house or lady friend at that point when I was collecting. I was purchasing like $500 every week or so for a while. Now I am lucky to buy an FFX here or there. I've had to slow down since. :D

Every time i see collection pics I keep thinking "Ok, after we get the Rubies Vader, my sabers converted, and possibly a new saber, we're going freakin' SHOPPING on Ebay for stuff."
"But what kind of stuff?"
"I dunno. Whatever is in that pic, I'm now on the market for it."
"Oi."

Am I alive or dead?
