    Kickstarter: The Man Who Shot Skywalker (Kim Simmons) Volume 4

    I don't see any posts on this but Volume 4 is in the last 2 weeks on Kickstarter and it's struggling to gain momentum. I have volumes 1-3 and they are outstanding! Yes, POTF and EU, and E1 figures aren't as nostalgic as the OG figs but I'd still love to see this book get made. Check it out and...

    Snow Wolf / Evike Modifications - Pulse Rifle

    They are extremely easy to disassemble and repaint. The red barrel caps pop right off after 4-5 seconds in boiling water (yes, it requires standing at the stove holding the PR over a pot of boiling water... and then trying to explain that to your spouse). The "Made in China" stamp is on a part...

    Vintage Kenner Star Wars Figures -- New Book by Read Five Designs, Kickstarter

    I also contributed to this campaign... even woke up in the middle of the night in CA to get the Jedi Consular - Special Edition and am quite surprised momentum has basically stopped. It's only had 13 contributors since Thursday. Unfortunately, I don't see it meeting their goal.

    Idea Mall lightsabers sale, legit/ worth it?

    I wanted to see what they would deliver too! I thought it would be a gutted FX knockoff with some cheap internals. Someone could easily have stolen the components from the Hasbro factory and reproduced them for less than $30 US. However, I didn't expect it to be THIS bad. :lol

    Idea Mall lightsabers sale, legit/ worth it?

    Yup. Exactly. You send it back and they refuse the return. If you withdraw your Paypal claim, you cannot file another claim. They are either hoping people are too stupid to file a claim or figure it's not worth the effort/cost. I'm escalating it straight through Paypal as fraud. There is a...

    Idea Mall lightsabers sale, legit/ worth it?

    I just looked at the customs declaration more closely. Mine was described as "Plastic rod" and the value declared was $5 USD :lol

    What Are Your Favorite Fast Food Toys?

    The Simpsons figures Burger King had in the early 2000's were awesome. I would recruit my dad's office manager to get them for me since I didn't have a Burger King near me.

    S.W. prop run wishlist.

    I'm working on a set of these right now and I can vouch for the quality as well as the price. The only things I'm adding to them are metal recharge pins and Covertech knob from TCSS.

    PropShop announces TFA Props!

    I'm the complete opposite. I already have 2 real Graflexes that have been converted to Skywalker ANH and ESB replicas so I can't fathom spending more than $250 on a Graflex (which is what I bought mine for like 15 years ago). Spending over a grand on a replica made by the company that made the...

    PropShop announces TFA Props!

    Except even if they used real Graflexes, it doesn't mean they stayed 100% intact from the day they got them to the day they were used on set. They still had to be modified, weathered, duplicated. Things could have broken, fallen off, or reinforced to make more durable.

    PropShop announces TFA Props!

    Accurate compared to what? A Graflex or Rey's lightsaber? There lies the problem with the logic and why I stopped reading the 110+ page Graflex thread. The Propshop replica isn't an exact replica of a Graflex, but it's not supposed to be. It's also not supposed to be an exact replica of the...
