Marc Ecko's Star Wars Collection
Oh Ecko, I thought we parted ways in high school but it appears you have pulled me back under your grip with these rad star wars hoodies. I will be definitely purchasing the Fett hoodie and Storm Troopers one. They aren't cheesy like other Star Wars clothing items I have seen in the past. Nicely done, Marc Ecko.

Star Wars fanatic completist with 19,741 pieces gets love from big newspaper
Philip Wise has 19,741 pieces of Star Wars memorabilia, 8,256 of them unique. About 20 years ago on his first date he took his (now) wife to see the original Star Wars. She had never seen it while he, naturally, had seen it already seven times.
On his site Rebel Scum yesterday he posted this Star Wars-themed Memorial Day diorama. He also runs another site called The Force.
Usually such behavior would be met with ridicule and disdain, but since we are a nation obsessed with superheros and especially Star Wars, Philip was instead written up in a huge feature in yesterday's Dallas Morning News.
They even interviewed him on video as he gave a tour of his museum.
It's nice that he calls the stuff "toys" instead of "action figures" or "collectibles". At least he hasn't completely lost his mind.
