[poncho]

well kinda i liked his film kuffs and he was good in prince of thieves anyway his rotj leia poncho came up for auction! i put in a cheeky bid of £25 more than my usual budget but i thought as a novelty that he owned it i put in a bid, needless to say it shot up in the last few seconds for £46ish. didnt anyone on here get this piece? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/330791837020?ssPageName=STRK:MEDWX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1435.l2649

Seller is a forum member? Ebay name rings a bell ( I think )

 

[tiefighterboy]

So because he owned it...that makes it worth more???? I am confused. :wink:

****ing stupid if you ask me.Who gives a flying **** if Christian Slater owned it.

The best thing that guy ever done was True Romance,other than that hes a knob.

 

[tundra9]

Gleaming the cube!!!

 

[PGowdy]

To be fair he's been in quite a few decent films over the years.

Pump Up The Volume
Heathers
Kuffs
In the Name of the Rose
Interview with the Vampire
Young Guns
Robin Hood
Murder in the First
True Romance

But no, obviously that should make the moc worth any more. That's ridiculous.

 

[itfciain]

Young Guns is a quality film

[poncho]

LOL I remember that! Did he really die? :shock:

 

[poncho]

yeah i remember reading it on a yahoo news a couple of years back. just wiki'd frank side bottom and the guy that played him chris sievey died june 2010 heres a quote from wiki

''Sievey died on Monday, 21 June 2010 after a short battle with cancer. Soon afterwards it was reported that Sievey had died penniless and would have a pauper's funeral. A campaign, backed by former collaborators including Jon Ronson, was set up to raise funds for the funeral and eventually raised £21,631.55 from 1,632 separate donations''

so no wonder he was selling his starwars stuff on ebay in 2009 he was skint....
