Star Wars Celebraion Europe 2

For many collector's Star Wars is the ultimate experience in both movie experience and collector's experience. So I guess many were happy to find out that the second Stars Wars Celebration Europe was being held in Essen, Germany. I think, many were less happy when they saw the prices of the signatures. Some were 120 euro's! I decided not to get any autographs, but only make two pictures, which were still expensive but less expensive than the autographs...
 
Mark Hamill is, as everyone knows, almost only known for playing Luke Skywalker in episode 4, 5 and 6. Because he is the main character and you almost never seen him, I did make a picture with him. 
Ian McDiarmid is most known for playing the evil Emperor Palpatine in both the old trilogy as well as the new trilogy. He also has a part in Sleepy Hollow, starring Johnny Depp.
