At 9 years old, I stood in a 2.5 hour line in 1977 to see the original.
The week before, the line was over 4 hours.
I mail ordered from a cereal box, a set of action figures.
Turns out those were the first ever produced and weren't in the collector guides until 2010!
I made my own light saber replica in 1977 from a golf bag club protector and a flashlig.
Beating the actual toy to market by almost a whole year.
