Since I moved to the States in 1978, and my friend Rogue-Jedi, introduced me to it.
I remember him telling me that he'd seen it 10 times already...
Then we got the Star Wars figures, and figured out how to use them as weapons to shoot down other figures that we threw into the air, with a parachute attatched.
Man, those were the days...easily entertained, and no computers to be seen anywhere. haha

Collecting definitely continues to fuel my interest in Star Wars. For me I like the figures and store displays which become pretty rare.
I just recently landed a nice Indiana Jones theme display from my work and a Clone Wars book display from a Books store.
It is a good feeling getting your hands on these, grab the ones you can, ask the managers if you can have them becuase they either destroy them or send them back to Uncle George. It is unfortunate, a Wal*Mart SW display is floating around in most stores with BEAUTIFUL OT art...but unfortunately they won't let me have it, it must be destroyed. What a shame.
Displays look wonderful in homes and most can even hold Star Wars items for display.
