It only took 43 years too find those power converters at Tosche station!

Is Mark also a time Lord what's up with the celery?

The deepfakes for Peter Cushing and Carrie Fisher in Rogue One A Star Wars Story are awesome!

A German Star Wars Lobby Card set.

I have all 24 of the German lobby cards. The English lobby cards are the same and I have some of those as well.

I’ve bought alsorts but never lobby cards, how much did they cost you ?

[Dave Boy]

Can't remember how much as bought them way back in late 1970's early 80s.
It'a a mine field.There are variant lobby cards for different countries.
Remember that Lobby cards are not the same as front of house stills although they alll seem to come under the same banner and they have variants as well, usually the text for example between US and UK. Front of house stills are usually 10x8 and lobby cards around 11x14.

On the subject of lobby cards in general. It's not something i've ever chosen to collect. I've posted hundreds of sets (seriously, not kidding. See the Post Your Fave Film Stills thread as proof) over the years and barely ever have i thought 'I wish i owned these' as often the images used are in my opinion quite poor.

The Star Wars ones above and others i've posted have been an exception to the rule as they have always looked rather nice with quality images.

Images i'd also say were used in the many cards with bubblegum packs available in the 70's and 80's.

They were and the reverse made a jigsaw into this pic,which was also used on the side of the box of the original 'Darth Vader's Tie Fighter' toy.

[Demdike@Cult Labs]

I don't remember the reverse at all but the ones i used to collect were these with the blue borders.

[Dave Boy]

Yeah, I collected all the blue and red bordered cards.

These books are great and cover all the different series of cards, front and backs.
