[QUOTE="ChallengerFox, post: 503302, member: 4883"] I was thinking the other day that in some hobbies repros are looked on differently and not in such a bad light ,has anyone noticed this ? For example one of my other hobbies is classic American cars and sometimes there is not much option but to go for a reproduction item , eg a bit of interior trim, a reproduction would be about £40 but if you wanted an original Ford stamped 1967 same trim people ask about £400 so if restoring a car on a budget most people go for reproduction items , of course there are the guys who enter in concourse shows where everything has to be original but I guess it depends on your budget, not really sure what my question is but do you think reproduction will ever be “accepted” in the Star Wars hobby when originals just get far too expensive ? Just for the record I’m against repros in the Star Wars hobby and I only collect original and don’t have any repro items in my collection. [/QUOTE]
