Your Reply: HTML is ON UBB Code is ON Smilies Legend	[QUOTE]Originally posted by mensax: [B]Well, it looks like Obi-Wan Kenobi and Luke Skywalker have gone their seperate ways. I suppose Luke has learned all he could from Obi-Wan and is now searching for Yoda. [IMG]http://collectspace.com/ubb/smile.gif[/IMG] I was surprised to see Obi-Wan sell for nearly twice as much as Luke, or perhaps I should say that I was surprised that Luke sold for half of what Obi-Wan sold for. Does Obi-Wan have a bigger Star Wars fan base than Luke? And the big question... what would Darth Vader have sold for? Noah[/B][/QUOTE]
