Fans of Star Wars, particularly model collectors will love this book. This
book is however not a book featuring collectibles. This is a compilation of
hundreds of photos models of ships and sets that were used throughout
the Star Wars movies.
There are four main chapters: 1. Starships, 2. Vehicles, 3. Creatures,
droids and sculpts, 4. Environment.
The photos included are extremely high quality and many are close ups for
details. The level of detail and workmanship is amazing when you're
looking at it close up. I can also touch them.
Fans will find almost everything, from the Imperial Star Destroyer, Padme
Amidala's Apartment, Holographic Chess Game, just to name a few.
If you've been to Star Wars exhibitions, you'll know that photography isn't
allowed. Well, this book is the next best thing to the exhibition. Wait a
minute -- so that's why photography isn't allowed.
This is a well constructed hard covered book with great binding and high
quality semi gloss paper.
