[Phastroh]

Here are a couple of shots of the beautiful Princess Leia. I managed to pick her up before she soared in price.

Kind of crazy people are willing to pay over $300 easy now lol sorry but anyone doing that is an idiot to me. I didn't pay $205 why pay $305. That's my opinion of course but I probably overpaid for something before.

I'm pretty sure they are making a Leia for TFA and the movie that comes after so I wonder how the value will hold on the HT Leia. If you scan eBay all the time I bet one or a few pop up for normal prices. Not everyone selling them is looking to benefit on Carries terrible heartbreaking tragedy.

They'll probably do another run now. That's Hot Toys' new MO.

I'm not sure about that now. The first run hadn't sold out when Fisher died, unlike other OT figures that were rereleased. Plus thinking about it a rerelease of her most iconic look would harm sales of any other versions. Plus, y'know, maybe even Disney would prefer not to be seen as cashing in on a tragedy.

There's a documentary currently on HBO about the lives of Carrie Fisher and Debbie Reynolds. It's called Bright Lights.

I'm a big fan of Team Negative1's Star Wars 1977 35mm transfer. That's what Star Wars looked like for 20 years until the SEs.

Ooooh, how much?

Just need to contact jimjimmyjones in that thread. I picked them up a couple years ago but it was pretty reasonable.

Thank you for posting, watched only the opening crawl and the original longer flyover of the star destroyer, but it made me feel 11 again!

I wonder if there's a version with better quality than this, which is only 1.6 GB, much smaller than a DVD file.

Are there any sites that still sell her at this point?
