Who is selling this L.A. collection (and house)?

[Remote People]

The WSJ article

For those of you who didn’t click on the WSJ article, I guess this is one way to describe it...

Wouldn't have been my first choice of words.

Perhaps the comment is accurate. The excitement of seeing all that merchandise might be too much for a true SW fan.

I need to re-think my entire SW collection... this is giving me existential crisis

 

[James Kenobi 1138]

Looks like they bought 1 of everything........

Somebody die?

 

[Jedifyfe]

All that space and money and they only collected modern crappy action figures?!

 

[Jedifyfe]

BTW. The address is 5824 Jed Smith Rd. Hidden Hills, CA 91302.

 

[JoeG]

They probably stashed the good stuff in a secret vault!

 

[vader45]

Wow. Amazing set up but junk figures and Vader.

Somebody die?

It could have been either a marriage or a divorce too. Those three things tend to change your collection habits.

I don't think we need to know what you're doing in your garage. But if it has anything to do with women, send pictures.

There is also this meaning, where you see this word most often.

cum lau·de
/ko͝om ˈlôdē/
adverb · adjective
NORTH AMERICAN

1. with distinction (with reference to college degrees and diplomas).

Looks like Tim Spina was responsible for several of the life-sized figures.

"Most", I would say second most at best.

 

[DeLano80]

That word is also used in the aerospace industry quite often.

 

[Captain Dunsel]

I distinctly notice the absence of Sequel Trilogy memorabilia (I think there was a plush BB8 in the theater room).

Respect...

 

[RoCKo]

Geez, that’s a hell of a collection my gardener gathered in my smaller pool house.
Thank god no one found my secret basement in the mansion, huh?

 

[karmajay]

Wow just the basement is 5000 sq feet.
