If you’ve ever wondered how much real-world cash you’d have to drop to own a piece of Star Wars history, wonder no more. At a recent Hollywood memorabilia auction, iconic items from the beloved space saga fetched prices high enough to make even Jabba the Hutt raise an eyebrow (assuming Hutts have eyebrows). Medal of Yavin Fetches Starfighter-Level Prices Remember the shiny medal Princess Leia awarded to Luke Skywalker at the end of the original 1977 Star Wars movie? Well, someone remembered it enough to pay a whopping $378,000 for it. Yep, nearly four hundred grand for a piece of space bling. This particular Medal of Yavin is special, not only because Luke wore it during one of cinema’s most iconic scenes, but also because it doubled as a rehearsal prop for none other than Harrison Ford. Clearly, anything Han Solo touches instantly becomes ten times cooler—and apparently way pricier….

First look at the SWTOR Collector’s Edition Store
Edit: This is just in from a beta tester Aparently the elevators take you to the VIP section: We aren’t allowed up the elevator at the moment. When you step on the elevator it boots you off immediately saying that you need a VIP card to access the elevator. No one has actually been able to go up inside of the VIP area that I’m aware of. I’m a CE owner and beta tester and I’m not allowed up there. The area around the elevators is NOT the VIP area, that is just a general social hub/cantina area in the middle of the new space station hub. Anyone is allowed in that area, just not up the elevators to the penthouse room. This video was mailed to us last night. It shows the area that will be available for people who ordered the Special edition or the collectors edition of SWTOR….
