Cool. That's one that I still need to get. Being that R2 is my all time favorite character I dont' think I can pass him up.

You went and took all the fun out of the search though. batting Hopefully we will be able to find one around here.

I received the Vader as well. I think I read somewhere that all membership copies will be Vader and that all stores will carry the rest. It would be cool to get all four covers for this issue. There is no way I could pick a favorite because they are all so awesome.

They are awesome covers however I find the Vader one less spooky. To have the others would just creep me out.

Well it's about time: Finally got my '06 Fan Club packet in the mail today. Since they started shipping them back in Feb. I had nearly given up all hope.

Very cool stuff in it: The membership card is awesome and I really loved the posters and especially the Anakin Skywalker pic!!! The Jedi sticker is tight as well!

I really dislike how long those packs take to get. It is interesting that every pack seems to be a little different. I don't think I recieved an Anakin pic in mine. The first time I signed up years ago I got a really cool Lucas poster that included pics from Indiana Jones and Star Wars.

I got some of the coolest action figures. My dad had gone to Italy on a tour the past couple of weeks and he managed to find some Italian action figures. They are so neat! Two of them are episode 1 figs (Rune Haako & Amidala) and the third was a '96 Imperial Empire Chewbacca.

Yeah although it wasn't until my dad's last day when he found them, thanks to one of his students who happened to be looking out for them.

My dad also got to see one of the places out there where one of the scenes from Episode III was filmed although I'm having trouble on which one it was.

I am so looking forward to overseas stuff. But there is also a lot of good things coming out in the states next year. Looks like I will be doing a ton of ebay shopping the next three years.

Got SWI: 89 in the mail today. It has some good articles and Han Solo is on the front cover so it's all good. I've skimmed through it and there is a segment on ILM. GL was a sheer genious to create technology that hadn't been around yet. The article talks on some of the big films that ILM has worked on MI:III, Poseidon, and Pirates.

Well my hyperspace subscribtion has official ended. I was going to extend but they don't send Insider overseas. I will probably subscribe to the international fan club when I get to Japan. As for collecting, my only new purchase was the Windu Starfighter. It is pretty cool. I think other than the Vader Starfighter (whenever it hits shelves), I am done with collecting for awhile. The wallet just cann't take anymore.
