Star Wars Collectors Explain Why
Star Wars toys first emerged in 1978. For the kids and
teenagers of the time, Star Wars and Star Wars toys
were totally new, totally unlike any other film or toys before. The
excitement of Star Wars inspired many kids to begin
collecting anything and everything Star Wars. You may be
having the same experience with Ep I and Ep II collectibles; now
imagine collecting Star Wars stuff for the next 25 years!
Many of the original collectors still collect today and have grown
up to become experts about Star Wars collectibles. A few were
asked to explain why they started and why they continue. Click

Geonosis
Hangar Action Figure Background
Anakin: "You're going to pay for all the Jedi that you killed
today, Dooku."
Obi-Wan to Anakin: "We'll take him together - you go in slowly
on the left..."
Anakin: "No, I'm taking him now!" Obi-Wan: "No!
Anakin, no! NO!"
And thus begins one of the greatest scenes of Jedi action in the Star
Wars saga. This new action figure background sets the stage for
your toys and your imagination to recreate this climactic scene or
to create your own version. Just beware the dark side of the Force. Click

Darth
Vader: Anakin's Destiny or Obi-Wan's Fault?
This week's topic is based on an Ep II debate between Padawans Anakin's
#1 fan and Obi-Wan's #1fan. Anakin's #1 fan says, "I
think it was partly Obi-Wan's fault that Anakin ends up turning to
the dark side. Obi-Wan was not a very good Jedi Master." Obi-Wan's
#1fan replies, "What do you mean? Obi-Wan taught him very well!
I don't think anything could've saved Anakin; it was destiny for him
to turn..." What do YOU think? Click

The Star
Wars Reference Gallery
Fun fact from the Reference Gallery: "Count Dooku was once a
highly regarded Jedi Master, but following the Battle of Naboo he
left the Order and returned to his homeworld of Serenno and family
title of Count. Dooku's substantial strength in the Force was
well-known amongst the Jedi and there were rumors that he
experimented with Sith teachings, using a dark Holocron kept in the
Jedi Archives." With more than 200 images and fun fact captions
in the Gallery, you can tour to learn more about your favorite
characters, scenes, droids and technology of the Star Wars
saga. Consider it your own Jedi Archive. Click
