  • Lucas Museum Preview + The Yoda That Came Full Circle

    Lucas Museum Preview + The Yoda That Came Full Circle
    2026/09/18
    Roger and I are back for Episode 2, and this one's a two-parter: a walkthrough of the brand-new Lucas Museum of Narrative Art from someone who got to see it before it opened to the public, and a full-circle collector story about a life-size Yoda that's been 27 years in the making.

    I'm a founding member of the Lucas Museum, and I got to walk through it with my family the week before it officially opens on September 22nd.

    Here's what we get into: What's actually inside the museum, and why it's not a Star Wars museum, even though there's a lot of Star Wars there. The building itself, five stories in Exposition Park with a free public garden and a free library. The fourth floor's curated galleries, Norman Rockwell, Frank Frazetta, comic art, and more. The Star Wars exhibit itself, Landspeeder, Darth Maul, General Grievous, R2-D2, costumes, and more, all from the first six films. A surprising detail about some of the pieces on display, including work attributed to Tom Spina Designs. And the story behind my life-size Episode I-style Yoda, a 1999 Blockbuster promotional giveaway, a picture of me with one at my very first Star Wars Celebration in Denver, and how one found its way back to me 27 years later.

    The big takeaway: whether it's a museum built to house a lifetime of storytelling or a Yoda that's been sitting in a box since 1999, the fun is in getting these things back into the hands of people who'll actually appreciate them. That's the whole reason Lightside Collectibles exists.

  • Is Your Star Wars Figure the Rare One?

    Is Your Star Wars Figure the Rare One?
    2026/09/05
    I (David) pull out my original Obi-Wan Kenobi figure in this episode. Turns out there's a far rarer version out there, one that sold for $105,000+, and mine is not it. Figuring out how to tell the two apart is basically the whole point.

    We're Roger and David, and this is episode one of the Lightside Collectibles podcast. David dug his original Kenner Obi-Wan Kenobi figure off the shelf and breaks down what actually makes it collectible, then gets into the far rarer double telescoping lightsaber variant Kenner tried and abandoned, the one he does not own and has never held in his hands. Why the version people assume is rare usually isn't, and what real rarity actually looks like, is the heart of it.

    From there, we geek out about George Lucas's brand new Lucas Museum of Narrative Art (David just became a founding member), the massive fan-built Saga Museum project combining over a million artifacts, and Rancho Obi-Wan, home to the Guinness World Record for the largest Star Wars collection.

    This is what we're hoping the show becomes week to week: us pulling real pieces off our own shelves, telling you the stories and values behind them, and catching you up on what's happening across the wider Star Wars and collecting world.

    Here's what we get into

    → What a double telescoping lightsaber variant actually is, why it's the rarest version of this figure, and what it has actually sold for
    → Why the version people assume is rare almost never is, and what really drives value in vintage collecting
    → The new Lucas Museum of Narrative Art, and why David became a founding member
    → The Saga Museum, and how a group of major Star Wars collectors are combining over a million artifacts into one future museum
    → Why Obi-Wan Kenobi is David's favorite character, and what makes collectors gravitate toward specific figures

    The big takeaway

    The version people assume is rare almost never actually is. Real rarity in vintage collecting comes down to details most people never think to check.

    About Us
    David is the founder of Lightside Collectibles, a Star Wars and pop culture collectibles shop built from a lifelong love of Kenner toys and vintage collecting. Roger is David's co-host and the founder of Reanimation Design, a Georgetown, Texas web design and marketing studio, and also designed and built the Lightside Collectibles website. Between us we've got two different collecting eras and two different generations of Star Wars fandom, and we bring both to the show every week.

  • Lightside Collectibles Podcast Intro

    Lightside Collectibles Podcast Intro
    2026/08/28
    Two Star Wars superfans kept meeting up to talk business, only to end up talking blasters and toys instead. So they made it official.

    Meet David Carr, founder of Lightside Collectibles, and his co-host Roger Jorns. In this short intro episode, they share why they started a Star Wars collector and fandom podcast, how their very different family generations are experiencing Star Wars right now, and the one rule for the show: it's a fun, honest, non-toxic space where disagreeing about the prequels doesn't make you any less of a fan.

    You'll hear about:
    • What's coming up in the Star Wars world — the new Lucasfilm Museum, Star Wars Celebration, the Starfighter movie -
    • Generations of Star Wars kids — discovering it
    • Why they built this as a place for community first, collecting second.
    New episodes are coming soon.
