Let’s face it, people are fascinated with what celebrities are saying and doing. They want to know about their love lives, their break-ups, their mistakes, their good deeds – almost anything you can imagine. The media hounds celebrities and tries to get the best pictures in their magazines or websites before anyone else does. Tabloids will invent stories simply because people cannot seem to get enough celebrity gossip in their daily lives. And who hasn’t stood in line at the grocery stores and thumbed through a few celebrity gossip tabloids? I mean, we all know that they are usually false, but the stories are still intriguing. Today’s society revolves too much around celebrity gossip.

The entire world seems to know how many children Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie have adopted. People watched the marriage of Brittany Spears and Kevin Federline fall apart. The personal lives of celebrities have been plastered all over our television sets and on the radio. We simply cannot escape from it. What’s even more important is that everyone seems to think that being endorsed or sponsored by a celebrity will make your product line sales soar or bring people to your event by the busloads.

The problem sometimes, is that with all of the celebrity gossip that circulates each and every day, it isn’t always easy to see fact from fiction. Reporting the wrong rumor can quickly have someone recruiting an attorney when the threat of a lawsuit transpires. So, where can you go to find accurate and reliable celebrity gossip?

Although Star Wars costumes are still popular today, back when I was a kid they were the end all and be all of toys. We played Star Wars all the time. I had a Darth Vader helmet, a millennium Falcon collectible toy, and countless action figures to name just part of my collection. I never thought of them as Star Wars replicas. They were simply toys. Star Wars was one of the best games we knew, after all. We would get together and play it almost every day after school. Cops and robbers, cowboys and Indians, and those other games got old, but Star Wars never did. What kid does not dream of saving the universe from a force of incredible evil?

It’s a funny thing about toys. As you grow older, you either give them up entirely or get very serious about them. In my case, I did the latter. My Star Wars replica collection has grown by leaps and bounds in the past few years, particularly with the making of episodes one through three. I like the new Star Wars a lot, but the originals are the real classics. That is why it is nice to see that Lucas films has been re-releasing so many Star Wars replica models from the originals. I have a scaled-down x-wing fighter pilot helmet to complement my Darth Vader helmet and storm trooper costume. I’m not sure if these replicas will one day be valuable. I know that my older Star Wars toys are, but to me this is not point. The point is the passion I feel for the movies.

You see, Star Wars was an epic fantasy like no other. People had written great epics of good versus evil before, but none of them had originated as movies. Fans are fanatical about Star Wars replica models like nothing else, because the story is just so big. The dark side is evil enough to destroy planets with a mere thought, while the rebellion is fighting bravely to free the entire universe from tyranny.

Of course, if you’re just starting a Star Wars replica collection, the best place to start might be with the re-releases of the original toys. After all, every Star Wars collection starts with Luke Skywalker, Hans Solo, Chewbacca, and the rest of that cast. Long before we saw Yoda in lightsaber duels, he was there fighting evil by teaching young Luke Skywalker the way to use the force.
