Random Weekend Star Wars Fun (11/15&16)

Posted By Mike on November 16, 2008

Let's see what we have this week...



Galactic Binder takes a look at "The Top 10 Most Expensive Star Wars Items Ever Sold At Auction."




Click here for an article at the Asian Journal where they highlight fashion designer Layla Abramowitz whose parents happened to be pretty big Star Wars fans...leading to the name of her brand:

"Asked why she named her brand Ditu, Layla replied, “Ditu is my name. It was actually my first name on my birth certificate. My parents were Star Wars fanatics, to the point where they named my brother after Aubi-one-Kanobe, as he was the first child. As the second, I was named Ditu. They almost named my sister Cethri, i.e. C3PO,” she shared."




Click here for an article about Lt. Joey Black; soldier and big time Star Wars fan. From Star-Telegram.com:

"In Iraq, he is famous on the airstrip as the tall bald guy who carries a blue light saber — Obi-Wan Kenobi’s — on every mission. He’s a serious Star Wars collector with something like 700 action figures and countless other memorabilia. But it is the light saber that has so far kept him out of harm’s way in Iraq.

"My kids told me it will keep me safe, so I take it," he said. "Besides, if I get shot down, it’ll maybe scare the crap out of some Iraqi if he sees me waving a blue light saber at him."'

Courant.com takes a look at "The Top Halloween Costumes For Kids, Adults (Even Pets)." (via Starwars.com)
