DISPLAYING MY COLLECTION
I keep working on ways to get as much of my collection out on display in my basement as possible. Part of the enjoyment of having a collection is showing it off. Every so often I get an idea in my head how to work ont eh displays and just go with it. Last night I hooked up several of my Star Wars...

MY STAR WARS WEB SITE
I am surprised, but I do not think I have directed anyone to my own Star Wars web site yet. It is called "The Imperial Officers' Club". Check it out here. This is my twisted mind at work. I use my action figures to act out little stories. I have not updated in some time, but all of what I have done...

NEW TRIVIA, AS PROMISED
The last question was "Who are the two characters in the first Star Wars movie (Episode 4: A New Hope) to say the line 'May the Force Be With You'? That line is only said twice and not by who most people give credit for it to." Only got one guess and it was wrong, so here is the answer. The first...

THE PIECES OF MY COLLECTION THAT I STILL HAVE FROM WHEN I WAS A KID
I have a huge Star Wars collection, but most of it I collected after the age of sixteen. That was when I got back into Star Wars big time and started collecting it again. Most of my toys and such that I had as a child were gone by then for a reason I will not go into here since it was a punishment...

LEIA AND HAN BECOME GRANDPARENTS
There was an interesting little bit in the second book of the Dark Nest trilogy. Leia and Han now have a granddaughter, although they have yet to learn they do. Their son Jacen is a father now to the hire of the Hapen Cluster. So the family tree just gets more and more interesting. Right after we...

LUKE AND LEIA ARE FINALLY LEARNING ABOUT THEIR MOTHER
Now that the prequel trilogy is done with, the expanded universe (Books, comics, cartoons, videos games and so on that take place outside of the movies) for Star Wars can do a lot more. Over the last 15 years the expanded universe has been doing a lot and has created a really interesting continuity...

So far Holy Grail is two for two with the trivia questions. I keep hoping to find others out there who have some of the answers. Today's question comes right out of the movies. Who are the two characters in the first Star Wars movie (Episode 4: A New Hope) to say the line 'May the Force Be With...

GOTTA KEEP THE FOOSBALL TABLE IN THE PACKAGE OR IT WILL LOOSE ITS VALUE
My big gift for Christmas this year was a Star Wars Foosball table. This is now the largest piece to my collection. The tittle of this post came from when my step-father was talking to me as I was putting it together. He joked 'It would take up less room if you just left it in the package'. I...

STAR WARS AND CHRISTMAS
It was taking out the Christmas decorations that inspired me to ask for first Star Wars Trivia question, which Holy Grail got right. The question was ' What is rock star Jon Bon Jovi's connection with Star Wars?' The answer Holy Grail gave was ' Didn't he sing on some Star Wars Christmas album??...
