You mean from the guy who rolls posters lengthwise?  (I'm not supposed to say his name anymore.)  No.  Different deal.

Yeah, I like the Starfield, but its size and the fact that it's not a real movie poster has always bothered me.  I'll probably get it one of these days.  I still have more B1s to get first.  6 so far.  25 to go.



Dam, I thought I had most of the Japanese SW's posters...Im missing 2 of these from here.


Here's a Japanese B0 for Star Wars.  From the listing: Most hard to find poster of all time (from SW poster book by Steve Sansweet).

From RebelScum.com, there are 10 more in the set.  http://www.rebelscum.com/panasonic.asp



I have never even seen these before, super cool.

As a non SW fan, that looked good. Very good.

The new "bowling ball" droid is a bit....uhmmmm.... curious.

I think they could have done a bit better on that design.

And light sabers that now have the look of traditional swords?  Doh.gif

But the hearing that main theme.... AWESOME!!  clap clap

I don't know after what happened with episodes 1-2-3...I think handing the franchise over to Disney and JJ Abrams is the best thing that could ever happen and from what I gather this trailer (all 88 seconds) completely supports that.  STOKED.  Now I just need to drive slower and ease up on the booze and make sure I live until December 2015...

Can't wait!!!  It has revived my Star Wars flame.  I need to start collecting more fervently.

Revival!  I like that ;)

Well, actually, the revival started a month ago with these few pieces.  Many more to come.

I need that stupid website to come back up so I can see what I'm still missing.  I know of 20 (including the quad that just sold, but I want it in better condition).  It's the more obscure ones I have trouble with.

Hardly.  Too steep for me, I'm happy with my 2 ROTJ posters (40X60 and Japanese B1). 

I was referring to the fact that if you're not already "fervently" collecting...then god helps us all when you do get into fervent mode!   ;) ;D

I am fervently collecting Bardot and Spielberg.  If I don't have it and the price is right (meaning if it's not sold by a dealer), I'll buy it.  That's fervently to me.  I want it all.  Star Wars, Eastwood, Cardinale, Lollobrigida, Grace Kelly and others are more leisurely collecting.  Maybe I'll get it, maybe not, no hurry.  

I just bumped Star Wars into the first category.

Thierry, sounds like you could use a nap. Then a hike. Then home to fire one up.
