You see that Star Trek movie yet? Despite being a Star Wars podcast and
having a Star Wars web site, it seems that Star TREK is the sci-fi franchise
in the spotlight especially this weekend with the new movie out. Remarks
have been made such as "This is the Star Trek movie made for Star Wars fans"
and Star Wars fans who follow swactionnews on Twitter have said "The new
Star Trek is better than the entire prequel trilogy". With such statements
being made, it's impossible for this to not have an impact on Star Wars
collecting, and as such we discuss the state of the two sci-fi franchises
and how Star Wars collectors may be impacted on this week's Star Wars Action
News.
