now that's worth more to me than a stupid picture book.

its one of their best sellers for $50

I remember buying the big VHS Collector's Edition of The Phantom Menace in 2000, which also came with an art book. Set me back $50.

Probably the stupidest purchase of my life, and I can only chalk it up to being starved for entertainment, and maybe hoping the extras would enhance the mediocre film.

I can only shake my head at someone who wants to spend 60 times what I threw away on something they can leisurely browse on Google image search for free.

Im still debating on weither i should get one or not, planing vacation in La. in September so i just might go ahead and spend that money....

Do you guys think this is worth it?

wow John!! Really your over it!!

If I had the chance to be able to get it will go for it but when put on the balance a vacation (with family I suppose) over this set make it a tough decision but I believe a family vacation will be first than anything because those happy moments cannot be compared with any other thing (as my personal opinion).

The set is a unique one and sure is a beauty.

well i can see where my text was misuderstood

Of course what i meant to say was "Since im going on vacation i wanted to buy it , so i could take it back with me "- saves all the hassle with it might be damaged on the long trip to Germany.

Of course it would not , could not, take the place of a vacation

Id proberbly also leave it sealed in order to keep the value high...wonder if the number somewhere on the outside of the box gebranded is so i know which exemplar i have without opening it....

 

[Falconhoof]

Wow thats a hefy price tag!

 

[surfury]

Thinks..... 1138x3000=$3,414,000
Wonder what the cost actually was cos that's going to be a mighty big profit for Mr Lucas (again)?
Wonder if the one(s) George keeps for himself comes out of the 1138 ?

 

[Rudy]

damn..i might of got it for 300....but 3000? nah..

 

[seether254]

pre-ordered thanks OP!

 

[pOx]

OMG ! Too expensive :O

 

[thyle]

...maybe if it included the original, unaltered movies in Blu-ray and the fan edits (a la The Phantom Edit) of the prequel trilogy on Blu-ray... ;-)

Lucas Ltd going the Ebay route on MSRP, Epic

 

[laffe]

its not there anymore

 

[Anth0ny80]

Are they crazy ?

 

[xarnoux]

Maybe for father's day ???
....
I don't think so !

 

[wyatt03]

This is a absolutely ridiculous price, Lucas is just ripping off his fans AGAIN!

He has the most loyal followers in the world, yet he keeps tinkering with the films everyone loves and doesn't give a ****, I think he's mad asking 3 grand for what is essentially some picture books.

But I guess there will always someone who will pay it.

Don't do it John imagine what awesome steels you could buy for 3 grand

This is for the hardcore fans who have the money to buy this. I presume you already have the cheaper version box set? This is not marketed for fans on average income, it is marketed for people who have the money to splash out on a fine mother limited edition who want only the best

I get that! But is it worth the money, that's the $3000 question

Maybe he could have done one for 99% of his fans, who made him a billionaire in the first place. Lucas has never given a toss about the fans of his films. Maybe he should be a little more humble IMO
