Amazon.com Review
From Australian frozen treats filled with "Jedi Jelly" to AT-AT facial tissue, Star Wars completely revolutionized the way in which movies got licensed and merchandised. Some of the most unusual examples show up in this tiny book--thanks to über-collector Stephen Sansweet. Close-up photos and Sansweet's own commentary tell the story behind $2,500 Jawas and Darth Vader-Dog Chow tie-ins. An irresistible addition to any fan's desk or back pocket, this guide is guaranteed to produce more than a few gasps of "You've got to see this!" --Paul Hughes
