For Sale: Life-Size Gentle Giant Leia Statue

Hey everyone.  Spotted this on Craigslist.  It would be pretty cool to have one of these in your living-room am I right?



They are asking $1,500.  (They made 500 of these and this is number 71)

Check it out here!

Merchandise Sightings: In Chattanooga, TN

Josh from Paradigm Thrift spotted a couple things in a antique store that someone might be interested in:
Some retro action figures.  Telescoping lightsaber Obi-Wan... They look a bit pricey considering they are loose and missing their guns...but some of you guys would know better than me.

Looks like a porcelain darth vader bank for $95  

I have no idea what this is.  A trash can?  
All of these things were spotted at:

East Town Antiques
6511 Slater Rd., Suite 102
Chattanooga, TN 37412

Another huge collection for sale

Someone sent me this from Craigslist:



It's a huge collection and they are asking $35,000 for it.  Supposedly the collection was appraised at more than $120,000.  Collection is in TX I think.

Might be worth finding out if he would sell single items.

ASWCC Third Meeting

The third meeting was held on Monday, December 3rd at the East Cobb Library.  We had a couple new faces join us this time which was pretty cool.  Matt brought in his new  copy of The Ultimate Action Figure Collection and passed it around for everyone to look at.  It is  pretty sweet book.  You can open the book randomly and see that they have made two pages of jawas for instance.



We also talked about the following:
The Clone Wars, The Mortis Trilogy, The Fate of the Jedi Series, Star Wars Celebration over the years (we had a new member that has gone to all of them including the first one!) ebooks, the eBay Collection currently for sale, the 501st, etc.


As you can see, although we have a lot of toy collectors in the club but we don't only talk about toys. The Star Wars franchise is vast, and people collect lots of things.  Come tell us about what you collect!

Last we began a discussion about where and when to have the next meeting.

We've decided to switch to Sunday afternoons before dinner time, as we have had several people say they would like to come but are unable on Monday nights.  So the next meeting will be on January 13, 2013.  4:00 pm - 5:00 pm.   We are working on finding a new location, and will probably be meeting up in the Cobb Galleria area.
