Will be interesting to see how all this turns out - pro artists and sculptors , etc-etc. Will they go for maximum accuracy or....

I just hope it's not a couple of deckchairs in front of a large 70's Grundig telly with a student rewinding the 'punch it' scene on VHS over and over whilst another two students take it in turns to ram the deckchairs into the screen for added effect. This was fine in the early 80's of course.

Neat idea, that's going to take up some real estate

I think they are going for maximum accuracy... One member here already helped advise them on Vader just from scoping so pre-opening photos that were posted to fb (I think). He contacted them about the mistake and they immediately corrected the error on the figure. Idk, but sounds like they really want to get this right

Very cool! I wish I could go. Hopefully it will come to NY later.

Someone broadcast the tour via Periscope the other day. VERY cool. I wish I could visit in person.

The sculpts are great, just looking at the promo vids now. I'll be offering my services as a qualified tape-op (mature student of course, lol).

They definitely chose the right Leia to depict!!!

Yeah that looks really good! I hope they are still there next summer, we are going to London for the Star Wars Celebration Europe III and would love to see these while there. Thanks for the link.
