I collect Star Wars memorabilia, but it's mostly casual. The only thing I collect with any real purpose are R2-D2s
I was army building the Galactic Heroes before Christmas and made them into custom tree decorations.

I don't collect much of SW, but I'll get figures that look cool to me or for customs (Btw, Voolvif Monn makes a great Splinter base. I just need a better head). Currently, I'm looking forward to one of the Build-a-Droids, HK-47 (Oh, how I've been waiting for him!). I did recently get the new Sarlacc Pit set. It's awesome for displays :D

I was a huge STAR WARS fan way back when they released Power Of The Force 2 back in '95. I remember Christmas of '96 I got every single figure and vehicle that was released up until that point. Then Episode 1 came and totally took me out of it. I hadn't bought a Star Wars figure since, except recently I got the Sandstorm Luke and Force Unleashed Battle Damaged Vader.

I mainly pick up troopers when I have nothing else to buy. I have over 100 of them so far. I have a few alien characters as well. Just got into the Star Wars Lego because they're so cute.

I don't collect Star Wars figures, but I buy them for my father. I can really appreciate their scope of characters. Everything from the guy you see in a background shot for 3/10th of a second, to unused character designs and concepts have been made. I wish they could have done something like that for TMNT.

I think star wars is the fictional concept with the biggest fanbase:ohwell: Im not really into it, but it would be fun to build some star wars stuff once.

Aside from picking up the Star wars insider magazines every month or two I don't really support the franchise. I am a big fan though. Have all the movies and enjoy watching them.

At one point, some Walmarts dropped it as low as $37. That's the lowest I've heard it go for. Most Wal-Marts keep it at $100 lately though.

I'm a psycho Star Wars fan, but I got out of the action figures market in the 90's when I got old enough to realize it was just an endless money pit.

Wish I'd been that smart! My tastes just matured with age. I don't get much of the Hasbro stuff anymore (except the EU figures, I love those) but I get a fair amount of the Sideshow stuff (not so much now as it's all armor and price rises).
Same for Batman. I skipped the Mattel Movie Masters but got the Hot Toys. Way more money but still feels like better value.
