How Did You Get Into Star Wars: Saw 'A New Hope' at the cinema when I was about 8. Afterwards I learnt that my Force powers gave me the ability to kick the heehaw of the kid who tried to steal my cardboard X Wing from my Issue 1 of the OG Star Wars comic.

Welcome on board Tanzan Linnear!

Great to have you here!

Dont forget to check in over at www.rebellegionuk.com  too and also make sure your lightsaber is polished up - it needs to be sharp when dealing with chavs....we cant have any of those scarred - its a strictly 'search and destroy' mission every time.
