If you are into Star Wars, then you NEED to check out this store, Sucher and Sons Star Wars Shop (while you're in town stop by and say "hi", it's only a couple minutes from our place). Everything is 1/2 off all summer.
You can hardly walk around without knocking over an Ewok Village or tripping over a life size manikin of Princess Leah in her slave bikini.
Don Sucher is the owner. Don started the store a long time ago, in a galaxy...erp, with his sons as a fun summer project. They had so much fun, they kept the store open during school. His boys would run the store after school. They eventually had to move to a bigger location. You can hear all about it from Don, himself, if you come to the store :)
Don has a tattoo of Bikini Princess Leah on his left upper arm ( I will get a picture next time I'm in the store). Just a couple months ago he had Carrie Fisher sign his arm under the tattoo. He spent the next few hours trying to find a tattoo artist to tattoo over her signature. Pretty nifty story to go along with his tattoo. He said she was very down-to-earth and friendly.
I didn't notice Han Solo in carbonite right by the front door the first time we went to the store. Almost stepped on him!
This is the world's coolest pop-up book! I had to buy it. You can't really tell from the picture, but Darth's and Luke's light sabers light up. NEATO!
