Written on December 10, 2007 Summary: For 'almost' any fan of Star Wars... I am 38, and as old school as Star Wars fans get. I saw Star Wars 7 times in my local theater in the summer and fall of 1977. Please keep this background in mind as you read my review, because the type of Star Wars fan you are (or your gift receiver is) will affect the enjoyment derived from this product. When I first heard about this book, I was lukewarm at best. I had seen a lot of Star Wars books come out in the last 15 years that were nothing more than cheap, base-line attempts to drag as much money out of fans as possible. When I first saw this book, I couldn't speak for a couple of minutes. Words were not sufficient. By the time I had looked at the first 4 pages of my Mom's just-bought copy, I closed the book and immediately ordered my own. As soon as I received it (no problems with shipping or damage here), I spent the next several hours in a place I haven't been to since Return of the Jedi premiered in 1983. I've seen these movies so many times that the special feeling of seeing "A long time ago in a galaxy far away" has been replaced by a warm, background feeling. It's still great, but it's not the same as fresh discovery. This book is page after page of fresh discovery. I have long considered myself a master of all things Star Wars, but 2 pages of this book rarely went by without me discovering information that I didn't know before I read it. If this book was just text and pictures, it would be at the top of my Christmas recommendations. But there's so much more... On almost every 2-page spread, there is a piece of memorabilia to touch, fold out, pull out, examine, and pore over. Letterhead, T-shirt transfers, posters, surveys, programs, are just the beginning. Reading a lengthy poster prologue from an early prototype, you realize again just how incredible it is that Lucas, or whichever writer, had the vision to go with "A Long Time Ago, in A Galaxy Far, Far Away...". I can't tell you about the 2 CDs that come with the book, because I haven't had a chance to listen to them. I have no doubt that they will be just as high quality as the rest of this volume. As a last little nugget, I leave with this: Arnold Schwarzenegger owes Harrison Ford about a billion dollars. When you read why, you'll know it. If you, or anyone you know, feels anything about Star Wars like I do, get this book. It is the greatest gift I have ever received, and that may include the gift of life that I received 38 years ago... Written on November 30, 2007 Summary: One of the best hands down OK, I have been a huge Star Wars fan since the saga began in 1977. I have to say that this is the BEST collection of memoribelia that has ever been put together in one place. Steve Sansweet is the perfect person to put something like this together. It has everything from an orignial T-shirt iron-on that you can iron on if you wish. To blueprints. And that is just the (huge) book. It also comes with 2 cd's that have everything recorded like vintage radio ads, interviews, and the long lost and thought to have been lost version of Carrie Fisher singing the song she sung for Chewbacca in the Holliday Special back in 1978. This set has everything a true Star Wars fan could enjoy and appricate. I didn't want to spend that much money on a book but I am very glad I did. If you Love Star Wars and enjoy looking through hours of memoribela I strongly recomend this book. You won't be dissapointed. This is not a book for the average fan. If you don't really like Star Wars this book will be a waste.. This is just how I feel. Thank you for reading and "May the Force be with you........" Chris Puryear Written on November 30, 2007 Summary: An incredible source of material for the hardcore SW fan This books brings back memories from a long time ago, this is a must have for every SW fan and collector. Mr Sansweet made and incredible job putting together so much information and the 2 CDs are really amazing Written on November 29, 2007 Summary: Inside the Vault Nothing could be better than this book. Being a Star Wars fan, all of this production info makes this the ultimate book ultimate book. From the Star Wars: Droids animation cell to the cardboard landspeeder from a 1970's Burger Chef Fun Meal, all the inserts and extras are what a fan needs. Written on November 29, 2007 Summary: WOW !!! CONGRATULATIONS GEORGE LUCAS !!! EXCELLENT !!! AMAZING !!!! THE INFORMATION WITH 5 STARS !!! C. RIVERA |
