Admission ain't cheap, but looks like it is totally worth it.

Yeah, they have original props, costumes, full-size swoop bikes, Anakin's pod racer and much more stuff.
Looking forward to the exhibition.

Hey Volker,

I was also there and took a ton of pictrues - would you mind if I share some of them here?

Finally found a computer that got my external hard drive running again. Back in the days I bought a hard drive that was labeled as 500 GB, but inside of the box was a 1 TB drive. So I paid 60€ for a 130€ hardware. It was a good day.

Talking about good days in my life, here's another one with very special memories. I went to Star Wars Identities with my brother and ex girlfriend who I miss forever. I'm glad to finally have access to these pictures and I'm beyond happy to be able to share them with you here.

Stars Wars: Identities


Cologne, Germany[/color]
November 15, 2016

A long time ago in a galaxy not too far away from me, Lucasfilm sent some of their studio-scale models, original costumes and screen-used props across the world.


The Rebel Alliance
We are strong as team
Nothing can weld together like a common goal. When Luke Skywalker joins the Rebel Alliance, he's surrounded by people, who share his interests and values. This is a big win for Luke - the Force of Evil can apparently be fought much easier with friends by your side.



Let's begin with an A...












Imperial Fleet













The rooms were rather dark and put the models in a difficult light for pictures. I had to play around with the ISO a bit. The glas in front of the models made it even more difficult for me.






The Millenium Falcon
The original model of Solo's famous pirate ship, which was built for Star Wars: A New Hope, was slightly too big for the acrobatic stunts that the Falcon had to perform in The Empire Strikes Back. Therefore this model here is half the size than its predecessor.









Costumes
