It's January of 2024, one year since my last Star Wars EU collection shelf tour. It's taken awhile to assemble, but I'm very proud of it!

Thank you for the figures and epics you sent me Eddie. Your show of kindness right before tragedy struck; it really impacted me. Bad things happen to good people sometimes, which isn't fair. These figures are really special to me now, for some reason; and I kinda feel emotional regarding them now. Thanks for watching, and I'm thrilled to see every upload of your collection retaking shape.

Wow. You’ve pulled this off just since 2017? I’m impressed. You are clearly quite young. I have virtually all of this and a good bit more. But I’m 50 and have been at this since 1977. I have everything “Legends” without the banner because the banner didn’t exist yet. I have every adult novel as a Sci-Fi Book club hardcover. The only “legends” books they did not release as hardcovers were the 9 X-Wing novels, Ruins of Dantooine, Tales of the Empire & New Republic, Crosscurrent/Riptide and Knight Errant. Possibly one or two others, but that’s it Anyway, enjoy your collection!

Man oh man, this is an INCREDIBLE collection mate! Genuinely one of the most impressive EU collections I've ever seen. I love the choice of framed comic book covers (those are pure Star Wars)! And man oh man, I haven't seen those Shadows of the Empire figures in box since I was a kid (I think I've got a picture of a store catalogue with those being advertised in an old scrapbook) - or Anakin to the Rescue for that matter! And boy, those 90s VHS tapes bring back a lot of memories too. Love that you have those! Oh my goodness, the Famicom Star Wars game in beautiful condition! I'll just keep gushing if I keep typing, but incredible video Brennan. I feel like there's a few categories where you might honestly be approaching a complete collection! The Force is strong with you, indeed ;)

I think I have like 99.9% of the legends books now working on the omnibus for the comics. I have recently started to learn more about some of the other works like the Super Natural encounters and others. How did you get those copies and what would be the best way to get them? I hear a lot of people talking about lulu and you have a couple of books on here you mentioned getting are you able to reorder them how does that work? The main ones I was looking at were Skyewalkers, Lightsider and tales from the primal age. I am willing to do trades as well. Thanks for the video I love to see other collections.

Hey I can absolutely help you with Lulu, if you could message me privately on one of my direct messaging services like Insta, Discord, or Reddit. Or shoot me an eMail, I can walk you through it!

I have been heard of the Lucasfilm alien chronicles? How does to fit into the Star Wars eu world and what is it like?

@StarWarsExpandedUniverse 7 ай бұрын

It’s a Sci fi story about a group of new aliens. Some make up a sort of empire in their system and oppress some of the other species. A couple of the species are referenced in Star Wars Wizards of the Coast sourcebooks, implying that the story existed within the Star Wars EU. Supernatural Encounters incorporates the storyline into the ancient EU, establishing that it takes place before Dawn of the Jedi.

Do you literally have a Bible on every shelf? That’s cringe af.

@StarWarsExpandedUniverse 7 ай бұрын

The reason I have a Bible on every shelf is to see the Star Wars books. Due to the shelf itself having a little indentation, you wouldn’t see all of the Star Wars books, some would be pushed into behind the lip of the shelf, and you wouldn’t be able to see them. So I’ve used them as basically buffers since I had access to so many of them. Since they’re all the same, and leather and look nice I’ve utilized them as temporary buffers so that it takes up the empty space. You can’t really even see them from head on. Though I will say, picking up a Bible and reading it, even once. Is something I think everyone should do in their lives. But I will have to admit that evangelism is not why I have bibles on my Star Wars shelves. I’ll eventually replace it with wood blocks of some kind.

@onlygoodgamesofficial 7 ай бұрын

@frankheninja1 It's cringe that you're upset by a bible. Also a barely visible bible lol.

Good luck with your channel I'm guessing we won't see any bibles on your shelves?
