I think these items are STILL going to only appeal to the Hardcore Star Wars enthusiasts . Because the pricing is going to be "up there " beyond the range of the average "Halloween crowd " .

I have heard some of their previous items , have been only "So-So " . My only concern now, is will LFL try and shutdown any of the "un -licensed " pr...
