Now that the exhibit's over, I imagine they have to clear out the store! Everything is 25% off, plus an additional 5-15% for Society members. I'm a member, and I'm ordering the Code 3 Collectibles ESB sculpted poster I was lusting over when I was there, if they have any left! So if you want anything, let me know and I'll order it for you. Get back to me by Monday or Tuesday, please! The link above only shows books and a few exhibit-related articles. The magic cube and scarf are limited editions made only for the exhibit. I've emailed asking if there's a more complete listing somewhere, but I'm not counting on it. Basically if you can think of a SW item you want, I'll ask if they have it. I do know they had a bunch of the Code 3 mini sculpted posters of ROTJ and ROTS. They also had at least a couple of each of the ANH (the style with the landspeeder), ESB and ROTJ large sculpted posters. They also had lots of collectible items I couldn't touch on my budget. I also don't know what shipping would be at this point.

The only thing that I'd considered before was the cube. Did you look at this in person? The only reason I'm iffy is that it seems like the paper would wear out after a few uses. If you recall it being reasonably sturdy (it's not like it'd be handled by kids) that's the only thing I'd like. -Campbell

I couldn't tell you how sturdy it is b/c the cube itself is shrinkwrapped and I don't have any reason to unwrap it (you can open the box without unwrapping the cube). There is a little foldout booklet with each of the images from the cube and a description of the character.

My friend Gabby pointed them out when I was reluctant to open the shrinkwrap but wanted to know what pics were inside! Damaris at the store gave me a run down on what's left at the store. All prices will be at least 25% off what's listed below, unless I forgot to ask the price, in which case it's not listed! Exhibition items: Chewbacca t-shirt sizes small, medium $30 Poster $10 Cube $9.50 Other items: Assorted mugs; Vader mug with background that turns red when filled with hot liquid "Mugshots" (shot-glass sized mini-mugs) set of 4 (2 troopers, yoda, vader) $19.95 "Mugshots" yoda or vader $7.95 Scale replica lightsabers: yoda, obi-wan epIII, anakin, luke, maul $35 Helmets - trooper and x-wing pilot, $80 Original cast replica vader helmet $145 Pewter ornaments - death star, chewie, boba, jango Pewter keychains - chewie, epI logo Notepads, mousepads Tin set of stationery - folder, notepad, etc $5 Wristbands (anakin, vader - got these for my nephew) and ball caps (vader) Vader backpack IG88 model (didn't ask) c3po minibust Jedi and Fett jerseys $120 long sleeve, polycotton That's all I got! I'm finalizing my order Tuesday afternoon, anyone who wants anything give me a holler before then.

I wound up not getting the Code 3 Ep V sculpted poster (C3PO's head was missing!), but Scott found it for me for the same price at, um... Fireside Collectibles? It's a separate shipping fee, but I was still glad to get it at that price and the $9 shipping was comparatively low for FedEx. Anyway I wound up getting the exhibition specific items (t-shirt, poster, and Campbell's cube) and the Obi-Wan Ep III saber .45 replica, all at 30% off, plus shipping $8. I'm pretty pleased, since if I was buying it all in person I wouldn't have paid shipping but about $5 tax! (which is a whole other story... one staff person and one manager both tried to tell me I had to pay tax; then Judy (the customer service boss and the one who's been helping me since I ordered my book last summer) called about half an hour later to tell me they were crediting my card back! Campbell, I'll send you the breakdown for the cube and postcards... eventually...
