hardcore fans

But we could be... 😱

Robes and sabers ho! Lets begin the show.

I agree, we are not as bad as Trekkies, but SW fans bring their own je ne sais quoi to the world of SF fandom.

If you'd like to see hardcore Star Wars fans.. look inside the vs. forum.

That's exactly why I don't go there.

How many people have actually been to a SW or a general SF convention?

ive been to quite a few
i get embarrassed FOR the SW fans who dress up
not the 501st troopers but for the Leias and Anakins etc
ive seen some sad strange people out there

Oh.. the stories you could tell.

Oh, midnight showing memories.

Sweet.

.....................well there was the time with the slave Leia

i didnt know where to put these but i visited my aunt who i havent seen in maybe 25 years due to her leaving the uk in the early 80s and she had a bunch of my old drawings from when i was a kid and various toys she had kept
sadly no Vinyl cape Jawas just a battered FONZ figure which had gone yellow and a few toy cars and.......................................MY STAR WARS SCRAPBOOK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i thought it was gone for ever.......actually i forgot all about it but ill admit i shed a tear when i saw it and the memories came flooding back
she used to babysit me and helped me put it together
here are some of the pages featuring cuttings and the original trading cards attatched

and a few more
some nice clippings from xmas 77!

Nice, but from who did Carrie copy her style from? Rocky Balboa?!

thats 70s fashion for you

Thats cool, Vintage...!! ✅

I've met several 501 troopers and even worked with one. The ones I met were pretty cool, the one I worked with and her husband... well... not so much.

Great stuff, Vintage! Superb.
