    Hello! I'm Darrell, and much like everyone else here, I'm a huge Star Wars fanatic.

    Okay, see you around...

    Just kidding! :cool:

    I've been a Star Wars fan as long as I can remember. I received a ton of Star Wars toys for Christmas and birthdays in the 80's, and most of my fondest child memories involve Star Wars in some regard. My favorite characters are Stormtroopers and Boba Fett. Although, I walk the path of a Jedi, I think I could be pretty tempted by the dark side of the force, I won't lie. C'mon, the force choke is pretty legit! :D

    I'm not new to forums or the internet, so I will do a lot more reading, and less posting initially. See you around.

    Legocloneguy22, I'm younger, too. I only saw Star Wars in the theater when the Special Editions came out in the 90s. ;)

    Welcome, XAFSSGT, it's nice to meet you. :) As you know I'm new as well. Not new to the internet and message boards, though, so I'm following the same "rule" as you while looking around.

    Darrell is fine, I don't mind using my real name on the web, it's not like it's my social security number.

    Thanks for the welcome, everyone!! :D

    Haha! Nooooo, I wasn't even born until 82. I just remember Star Wars still being pretty "new" as a trilogy, and my parents bought me a ton of Star Wars stuff for christmas in the 80's.

    Sorry if I misrepresented my age, I'm only 30. :D

    Haha, ALL of the age issues!!! Nah, jk.

    But to the users (or couple users?) worried about being super young, I haven't even nailed mid-20's yet, so don't worry!!! Age is only a number on an ID card that says wether or not you can legally ingest alcoholic beverages. I did grow up on stories of my mom going to see ANH, etc, in theaters, though, it makes me SUPER jealous.
