    Most Precious: Limited Edition & Autographed International Video Key Art Chromart Set - It was the first SW item my wife ever surprised me with.
    Weirdest: I don't find them weird, but people always comment on my Sigma porcelain SW figures because of their "cherubish" faces.
    First: R2-D2 and C-3PO were the first two figures I got as a kid. Of course, back then they weren't collectibles, they were toys! :)
    Latest: Clone Wars Animated Asajj Ventress
    Hardest To Find: Probably none of it with ebay available, but I'll go with my 15th Anniversary ESB Boba Fett mylar poster which I eventually got Jeremy Bulloch to autograph.
    Still Seeking: Always seeking (at a reasonable price) an original Revenge of the Jedi movie poster.
    Item you'd most like to see made: I'll go with jkg_vader on that one - the original trilogy on DVD.
    SW Celeb encounters: Kenny Baker, Bruce Boa, Phil Brown, Jeremy Bulloch, Ken Colley, Anthony Daniels, Warwick Davis, Carrie Fisher, Julian Glover, John Hollis, Nalini Krishan, Richard LeParmentier, Peter Mayhew, David Prowse, Michael Sheard, Billy Dee Williams, Aaron Alston, Kathy Tyers, Dave Wolverton, Timothy Zahn, Michael Stackpole, Dave Dorman, Kevin J. Anderson, Rebecca Moesta, Barbara Hambly, and numerous other artists and comic contributors that I can't remember.
