I am convinced that the merchandising of 'Star Wars' is something that has made it such a big part of pop culture, |
I did feel silly about going up to a counter and buying Chewbacca barrettes, ... The cashier says, 'I hope your daughter will love it.' You just nod and hope the red is not in your cheeks too much. |
I'm sure there are collectors who keep things hidden away and never show it off, ... That's hard for me to understand because part of what has made 'Star Wars' collection so wonderful to me is the chance to share and meet with all kinds of people. |
If you count every trading card, there's probably 10,000 right there, |
Immediately, the price went up ten-fold, because people knew I didn't have it in my collection, |
There's a bumper sticker, 'He who dies with the most toys wins,' ... That's not quite my philosophy, but close. I'm not looking to amass size (in the collection) as much as cool things when they show up. |
