I was digging through some old boxs and found an original 1978 Star Wars Darth Vader. Its not in great shape but I was still pretty thrilled to find it. Slapped alittle amour all on it and shined it up and ordered an original lightsaber for it on line. should be a nice little collectable.

    He has been awakened from his sleep. Just think, he has never heard SDAs.
