I can highly recommend a visit, I went to the exhibition @ the Barbican centre in London a few years ago..the details of the models & cotumes is truly amazing,here's one for the kids,If you get to see the model of the Super Star Destroyer keep a look out for the toy soldier hidden in the super structure..

Cool stuff Chopper! I went to the Lord of the Rings one when it was in London a few years ago. It had a kind of alarm sensor at the front door that as you walked in triggered a sound bite saying "YOU SHALL NOT PASS!" Hope you enjoy the Star Wars one.
By the way, is that hand trying to point at what I think it is?...........

Gav was that the one at the odyssey??? if it was you didnt miss much.
took the kids and the missus but it was packed and there wasnt that much to see.
highlight of the day should have been meeting darth vader but wasnt impressed, he signed a picture, charged £20 and wouldnt answer any questions.
got a picture taken with my kids and a stormtrooper, trooper couldnt have been more than 5 foot so i hit him with the classic "arent you a little small for a stormtrooper" he wasnt amused and replied "go f*ck yourself" with his silly voice synthisiser. told him if my kids werent with me i would have inserted his blaster where the sun dont shine. silly clone.
