(FLOSI'S Cantina) "Where everybody knows your name..."

This is where the cool guys/old timers go to talk about Star Wars...Kenner, Sideshow, Gungans, young Anakin ghosts, warts and all come to hang out. Be cool or leave (no DC forum BS por favor), because we don't serve your kind. Don't delete this thread, please.

Darth Waller, standing by.

[barryo]

only one question really...............is drinking allowed?

[Deak Starkiller]

LOL, I don't know I figured either this can stay in the SW section or Dave could/would move it to the...Sandbox? Richard, who's your favorite Kenner figure? Me, Bespin Han.

[Batty]

Cool guys and Star Wars are 2 things seldom said in the same sentence. But I fit the bill. :lecture

Alright, let's see how long this thread lasts.

Well, I figured your name sounded more like a SW character. And you're a MOD now so I thought it would fly under the Dave-dar.

So I haven't picked up any vintage figures at all this month. :( Still need 20 total. **My attempt at starting a credible conversation**:wave

so being a mod in a thread named after you is like being the proprieter of this bar...........& the bouncer..........:panic:

[FLOSI]

Don't forget about Droids and Ewoks...you will soon enough.

Nope. I refuse. I never wanted those figures as a kid and I don't now. I think a sense of completion in the vintage line goes as far as you're willing to take it. I set the perameters, which means I don't NEED to get Droids or Ewoks figures, variants, vehicles, etc.... Besides, they look lame-o.

Are you a big SW collector Batty? I figured you weren't but I know you got a thing for them clones as of late.

I have a huge SW collection going back to 1977. Right now I pretty much collect 1/6th figures, but at one time I was a hardcore collector of just about everything: figures, books, magazines, masks, trading cards, albums, posters and a ton of other crap. If it had the words "Star" and "Wars" on it, I had to have it. :lol

[Deak Starkiller]

Not as much Bladerunner? :lol

Did you ever buy any of the Decipher collectible card game crap? I never played it as a game but damn, I was so addicted to buying packs!

[Batty]

Not as much Bladerunner? :lol

There was never a lot of Blade Runner collectibles. Then or now. And even though I'm a big BR fan, Star Wars made a huge impact on me as a kid in the 70s.

Btw, I remember the first time I heard about BR was in an issue of Bantha Tracks.

[Deak Starkiller]

Did you ever buy any of the Decipher collectible card game crap? I never played it as a game but damn, I was so addicted to buying packs!

I LOVED those cards, they were great. Sometimes when I hear or see certain things in the holy trilogy I think of certain cards. My favorite..."This is just wrong".

I collected the initial release (black border) and the first few expansions. Rare cards were 1 per pack in the first wave, but i found a box at a LCS that had packs that were all rares, so I have a bunch of Ben, Leia, Luke and Han cards.... Only got one Vader though. :(

[Darth Waller]

Wow, this thread really took off since yesterday. Glad it's still around. :yess:

I finished watching the original 1977 version of Star Wars yesterday in 720p. Not even an Episode IV tagline.

Then I started watching Star Wars Begins. If you're a fan of Star Wars, you have to watch that, Building Empire, and Returning to Jedi. They are full-length documentaries (2+ hours each) with all kinds of various things, even some of the actual on-set dialog recordings of the scenes we've seen a hundred times watching the movies. Prowse's voice as Vader is too funny.

[galactiboy]

Nice Waller :rock Is that the Harmy version, or did you get a different one?

Now I'm going to have to post pics of all my original Bantha Tracks fan club stuff. :lol

I'd like to see that, my mom was a long time subscriber. Back in the day Starlog and Bantha Tracks magazines were where it was at :rock

And personally I like the idea of an old school Star Wars thread... the vintage collectibles thread has been a lot of fun so I could see this one being similar :rock

[Darth Waller]

Nice Waller :rock Is that the Harmy version, or did you get a different one?

It is the Harmy version. I watched the non-anamorphic DVDs a few weeks ago thinking that was the best I would ever get. Once I found out these existed, I contacted a view boardies and now I can retire that crappy DVD set.

To quote Belloq... "It's beautiful!"

Badass mom. Also that's what I was going for Joseph, a sister (or broski) thread to the Vintage thread. With all the hoopla surrounding SW lately, it's kind of rekindled my interest in the holy trilogy...and it's mongoloid cousin the prequels. :wink1:

Here's the answer for the speederbikes on Tatooine:

It took me 25 years to find out, but the speeder bikes were there simply because they were on the same trucks with the skiffs, from the manufacturers. So they stored them under the platform until they moved on to Crescent City, CA for the Endor scenes.

[Deak Starkiller]

Here's the answer for the speederbikes on Tatooine:

Well, ****. See I could be wrong but the color looked different to me. I thought there was something where Luke & the crew escaped via speederbike from the Sail Barge. Only different in my mind. :(

[Deak Starkiller]

I cleaned up the color a tad in CS3. Still cool.

I met him back in 1997 and again at one of the first Celebrations (I think it was II). He was awesome to talk to, and I am proud to say I have an autographed poster from when he used to sign his full name. I also have an Ark of the Covenant print, I think they still might be available. He's a very interesting guy, used to do work I think for Boeing and the government. He's a living legend.

Yes it is in the movie, but the camera is far away. I think he's in the Cantina too. Also is that Larry Zabisko (sp)? Sam +10 in my book. If I ever meet you I am putting you in a figure-four-leg-lock. :D

Better not. All I gots to do is flip over, and for some reason that defies the laws of common sense, physics, and physiology, you would be the one screaming in pain.

My sister worked at a movie theater in 1997 and convinced her manager to smuggle out two 35 mm film reels of the ROTJ:SE trailer for me (one anamorphic and one scope). I thought I had the ultimate SW collectible; actual film played in an actual theater. Especially of ROTJ which apparently would have new badass footage of sweet looking CG band members in Jabba's palace. :lol :duh

[karamazov80]

Y'know, back when that special edition foolishness first happened and I saw it in the theaters, none of it seemed like that bad of an idea, and it didn't bother me very much. I was just glad to be able to watch Star Wars in the theaters. I guess I just got nerdier and more ornery as the years have passed.

[Deak Starkiller]

Batty that box is awesome, thank you for sharing. I love the ART OF books, AND I need me those SW & Empire sketchbooks. I recently picked up the Jedi version for 5 bucks MINT. Let me know if you ever want to sell your stuff, it looks like it's in immaculate shape. :naughty

Now this is a good Star Wars thread!

I always wanted that McQuarrie Empire Portfolio that Batty posted, but when I was a kid and saw it in Bantha Tracks, I didn't really get what an advance art portfolio was - I knew it was cool and I was already fascinated with McQuarrie's work, but at five years old some of those things remained unknown to me.

I do still have my old Bantha Tracks t-shirt though ...

[Brinn 71]

those behind the scenes pics were awesome. makes you wonder though if lucas had the foresight then to have an ace photog document the film making process of all his movies. im sure he did and has tons of on site & personal photos that will never see the light of day.

I honestly think they didn't, and Gary Kurtz took the pics himself. He's a photographer and shot a lot that are now finally seeing the light of day. Star Wars had the worst behind the scenes pics. Most of them thought they were making a flop and didn't take any. For ESB Kurtz took a bunch again but they were still worried they were making a flop. Amazing when you think of it.

More pics anyone?

[thenammagazine]

Given the global phenomenon that was Star Wars, how could anybody even think ESB would be a flop? :cuckoo:

[Brinn 71]

Hard to believe. When you read the Making of ESB, they talk a lot back then about how sequels usually flop (back then) and how nervous they were. I guess that made them work harder to make a great film. The end result speaks volumes!

Batty, I clearly remember those Empire Strikes back and Star Wars books that were ordered via school. I still vividly remember the day I got my ESB book and walking home from school took hours because I kept stopping to look at it. :lol

Did anyone else love how the opening pages had a cast list and each movie reflected the growth in the characters.

I don't remember getting those through school... but I do remember getting these:

And, of course, I still have mine. :lol

[pixletwin]

Mine were worn out, eaten by dogs, and thrown away by cold parents long before puberty. :monkey2

[FLOSI]

:lecture Yeah, any books/mags I had are long gone.

[Darth Waller]

Back in 1978, a friend and I wrote and drew a comic called Star Wars II. I think that might be in a box somewhere.

I'll try to find a few I did around 20 years ago... I may not have been a "kid" but they are still somewhat old.

I know we have a copy of the Dynamite magazine on the right, but there was this other magazine my mom had which showed the cast out of character on the cover, but I recall everyone was looking creepily at Carrie Fisher.

[galactiboy]

Well I have these posted in the vintage collectibles thread... but might as well add them here. My Kenner collection :rock

(And don't worry, I've since replaced the super faded Max Rebo :lol)

[pixletwin]

I love seeing the old Kenner stuff. It also makes me a little sad inside. :lol

[galactiboy]

They were a lot of fun to collection... some of the prices are a bit painful, but with the cost of HT figures even Yak Face can feel affordable :lol

[FLOSI]

Well, here's my little collection, started back in February of this year so I still need 20 more, it's been a lot of fun to put together. Many thanks to GB, Nick, Waller and everyone else for helping me get started.

You've done a great job so far Rich, and the collection looks good too. :duff Also it is taking every fiber of my being not to make a joke about that basketball hoop.

Don't do it Rich, he's yellowed.

Nah, I'm not even in the market for carded figures... And I honestly didn't look that closely.

I still think the Micros are damn cool, J... Did you end up selling them yet?

Oh, and I love your collection. :D Obviously.

[galactiboy]

I go back and forth on the Micros... I'm at least keeping the Falcon (not pictured) but not 100% sure on the rest.

[Deak Starkiller]

The Falcon is the toughest set. I have the Wampa cave.

[karamazov80]

Here's the extent of my Star Wars collection. Like I said, not much vintage (in fact, no vintage on display):

Nice Kubricks.

[FLOSI]

Wuh? Those aren't Legos?













:devil

[Deak Starkiller]

LEGO > Kubrick.

[FLOSI]

Kubricks are like crack I bet... You buy them in little unmarked boxes, right? Like baseball cards in away?
