So This Is Christmas

Merry Christmas is such an infectious feeling I like to feel that way all year around.

So if you are visiting just before Christmas, just after Christmas or even here on Christmas day I am sure you will find something of interest for you and in the spirit of Christmas.

It may be said that Christmas is no longer a celebration but this must be spoken by people that have never had trouble closing their eyes on Christmas Eve in an expectation of what maybe left for them on the carpet under the tree.

I continue to look forward to the surprise on my Grandchild's faces to this day at Christmas events.

Merry Christmas - Merry Christmas - Merry Christmas

Classic Stormtrooper Costumes From The Star Wars Movie

By Bob Anderson


Very little movies have the capability to withstand the test of time a lot better than the venerable Star Wars series of movies. It's tough to trust that we were first introduced to Luke Skywalker, Darth Vader and the Imperial Stormtroopers more than 3 decades ago. After 30 years the Star Wars series shows simply no sign of delaying and they recently announced an animated version of the Clone Wars coming to theatres soon as well as an animated TV series too. Amazing.

It's really no surprise that a movie this popular inspires generations of rabid fans who wish to be as close to the movie and their favorite characters as you possibly can and it looks like the sci-fi genre produces the most rabid of fans. Probably the most popular Star Wars Collectibles center around one of the least glamorous characters in the movie, the unsung hero referred to as the Storm trooper.

They did all of the work and got none of the glory that some of the most popular Star Wars villains made it possible to achieve. Darth Vader, Boba Fett, Darth Maul all received the credit for being the villain when in reality without them, they would have just been a few goofy looking guys playing around in funny looking costumes. They provided the sheer might that it takes to enforce your will across the galaxy and without the tens of thousands of Imperial Stormtroopers, Darth Vader would have been guessing your weight at the circus.

They have inspired and developed legions of fans everywhere that recognize their rule and as such their is a huge interest in their memorabilia. The helmets are one of the most popular Star Wars Collectibles ever and many take it to a whole other level and buy an entire set of armor. While this may be like overkill to some, to a true fan they want the entire deal and high quality pieces are available.

Stormtrooper helmets and Stormtrooper costumes come in variety of shapes and sizes and you can even often find authentic items from the actual movies for sale on Ebay or other auction houses. The special edition Stormtrooper helmets you should purchase are perfect but nothing would round out your Star Wars collection like a Stormtrooper helmet from the actual movie. If you notice, they are out there but in reality a supercool replica stormtrooper helmet is still sure to be a hot collectible in the many years to come.
