Great photos, I can't think of many locations where you could immerse yourself in the film quite so much! It would literally be like being in the film. Must do it one day.

Some pieces have made its way to collections like Gus Lopez, and that guy who made that documentary recently 'The Force within us'.

Great shot and photoshop :lol:

So what about the big hole in the ground at Lukes home? I wouldn't be surprised if they had to fill that in on elf and safety grounds :?

Would love to take the kids

Some bloke on eBay was trying to sell sand from the set, claiming it would make your own display look more authentic :lol:

My sister went with her hubby. You can just do a day trip to see the homestead and the Lars underground/dug out home. Would love to go. It's probably quite a big tourist attraction hence why they fixed it up. Glad they did 8)
