We'll use up a lot of posts on Star Wars for sure, this is just the first. And for the first, why not talk about the most cos-played character out there. The sinister looking and often blaster fodder for Han, Luke and the gang. You called it - here are a few cool Stormtrooper collectibles...
Original Stormtrooper 12-back figure by Kenner (1978)

| Stormtrooper 12-back figure by Kenner |
One of the most sought-after carded figures there is (really any of the first 12 Star Wars figures can say that). If you have one of these you're one of the fortunate few. If you don't, good luck. When they show up they sell for close to $1500 these days. Loose ones are much cheaper and easier to come by, and still collectible. As always with the high priced carded figures you have to be wary of fakes. I tend to buy from highly-rated eBay sellers with long histories. Or go to a toy show.
"Fall of the Empire" Ewoks vs. Stormtrooper Diorama

| Ewoks vs. Stormtrooper diorama by Sideshow Collectibles |
One of the coolest Star Wars dioramas we've come across - Sideshow Collectibles is responsible for some awesome pieces over the years and this is no exception. This diorama was limited to 750 pieces. Too bad it's long sold out and now goes for close to 1K if you're lucky enough to stumble across one on eBay.

We love the Star Wars 6-inch Black Series by Hasbro. They're great figures for the nostalgic who wish they had seen larger, more intricate Star Wars figures back in the day. I'm partial to figures from the original trilogy, and these are two great ones.
Now here's to hoping we see GI Joe done in black! (Hint, hint Hasbro!)
So much more Star Wars to come in future blogs...
