I liked Episode I enough to see it in the theatre 13 times, but even I have my limits. I was heavy into SW collecting for the first time since I was kid from 93-02, and I used to see half of that shit and just shake my head.

I was a vegetarian at the time, and I even ate fucking Taco Bell just to get some of the harder to find promo toys, which are worth shit all to me right now.

If any good came of it I'm no longer a vegetarian - Save a cow. Eat a vegetarian.

Not that that is going to stop you from dreaming… Only in this case, Gaffer is actually a guy.

One of my Pepsi can exploded on my shelf.

There's good in the Original Trilogy, and it's worth fighting for.

5 phrases!? TC-14 had 5 lines in the movie? The only thing that I wanted to buy at the time was a Obi-wan or Qui-gon figure. I could never find one... All there was on the shelf's was jar-jar stuff.... Ah, well. *shrug*

Nothing says "I love you" more than a "Royal Elegance" Queen Amidala doll. Complete with hairbrush.

Seriously, I've never even seen half of this stuff before, and I was pretty big into the EP1 collectibles in '99.

The number of categories alone is disturbing. Coupled with the number of items in each category - all for merchandising tie-ins to a movie - that's just fucking shameful.
