Way back when the TPM hype was in full swing, I bought some of the "Teaser" posters from the fan club. It's the one with Anakin casting Darth Vader's shadow. A much crappier, smaller version was available at Wal-Mart. Does anyone know what the going rate for these are? I checked E-Bay, and there aren't any there. I hope this wasn't one of those items everyone bought 12 of hoping to sell later?
In related news, a local ToysR'Us is trying to auction off a bunch of posters and stuff, but they aren't getting a lot of bids. They've got a poster for just about every major character(Obi-Wan, Qui-Gon, BattleDroid, etc) with a nice head shot, a scene in the background, and "Star Wars" written down the side. Haven't seen them before. They also have a bunch of cardboard cutouts of just the head and shoulders that are something like one foot high by two feet wide(Darth Maul, Jar-Jar, Yoda, Boss Nass, others). I'm guessing they are used as shelf toppers.
If anyone's interested, I can post details. Minimum bid is $10CDN, and the way bidding is going chances are $10 will win it. I'm probably going to bid on a bunch of them anyway, so I'll be glad to get one for someone. I know a lot of people like me desperately want some store displays but haven't been able to get them yet.
