How can anyone say that star treck universe is better than starwars universe.
Star treck to me is so boring and cheap and the "different alien species" all look like humans.lol
A creature like Rancor or the mighty AT AT 's (walkers) would never appear in star treck.
Starwars on the other hand has so much originality.One thing that i love for example is that all ships and vehicles look dirty and brused.Look at Boba fett's brused helmet and armor, theres a history in that armor man!!the lack of story details makes your own imagination work.Thats why i loved it so much as a kid ,the simple story and dialog but yet very detailed interior.
Look at the imperial enviroments with cold color scheme ,those black and white stormtroopers and grey metall halls with the cool automatic doors.
So much deepth And has there ever been a more pure evil than the Emperor. Has there ever been a more powerfull character than vader.Listen to his voice man!!
When i die i hope i wake up in the forest of Endor next to one of those cool speeders wearing a Scout Trooper armor.
Ps my bad english doesen't allow me to fully expres my thoughts...very frustrating.

Star Wars! In my opinion it's a lot more creative/interesting/spooky than star trek.

Jordi LaForge was played by that guy from Readin Rainbow so I have to say that is deffinant step up fro Trek
but, hey, fucking Star Warz!!! except that new stuff... Captain Kirk could fart in a cup and make you drink it and it would taste better than that feeling you get in yer auditory poops from that... yeah

I love the three old episodes of Star Wars.
They changed my life.
I was ten when I saw the first one.
I also still have a lot of the Parker Toys at home.
I got lots.
AT-AT...Jabba the Hut...
...lots of figures and even more space ships...
and I agree with Sido the new ones are crap.
Family Entertainment.
I still remember the good old days when I was a kid - saw the first one where at the beginning is written part 4 and i always thought that the first 3 episodes where never released in Germany.
So now I know why and the thought of Lucas behind it is nice but in the end it doesn´t fit to me.
The old ones look old and that´s good that way and know come the real old episodes and the look perfect and all is digital.
There´s something wrong...

You have AT-AT ? Cooooool!!! You must be a lucky man Marble. Me and Raimons went out today on a search for old starwars toys and found lots of cool and rare stuff but it was very expensive.
You could make lots of money on ebay but i suggest you keep all that good stuff to yourself.

You´re right I´ll keep that stuff.

These toys are the most important toys
I´ve ever had.
Some of them stand in my room for decoration.
I love Star Wars
Hooray !!!!

I like both but I'd have to choose Startrek, because the cultures are better developed. Especially in the Deep Space 9 episodes. I think the first few Startrek movies were really, really bad though...

star wars. easily. star trek has become a bland soap opera that just happens to be set in space. all the aliens are humans with some prosthetic on their foreheads.
every race in the universe wears perfect, body-hugging nylon. and to top it all, their new 'prequel' series 'enterprise' looks like it's set 200 years later than the original kirk series it's meant to pre-date. it's totally lost it. the only one of the movies that was really good was (he says controversially) the first one, 'Star Trek The Motion Picture', because it was serious, frightening and had a bald alien woman, which is always a bonus.
Star Wars on the other hand, is a much more unpredictable universe, as you'll see no doubt this week when the new trailer is released online. You even get to see the young Darth Vader having a drink beside huge billboards advertising alien stuff, and being offered drugs. That's better if you ask me. When would you see that in 'Dynasty Space 9'?

I've got the Millennium Falcon - both old and new, and the old and new AT-AT. I've noticed that the newer Star Wars stuff is obviously made from identical molds (practically the same) - yet painted a lot more realistically. When I look back at some of the older figures I have (as expensive as they probably are), they are quite crappy in terms of detail compared to nowadays..
I always wanted to have the Dagobah swamp set where Yoda lived. Never had it though...

I agree with you, the older stuff does have so much value, not just $$ but sentimental value as well. Not that I would ever sell any of it, even the newer stuff.
One of favourite items that I have in my collection is a Star Wars Chronicles hardback book - it cost me £100!! No one except me is allowed to touch it! :-)

Working on the avatar bit - mixing alien with ET just to see what bug turns up -
As for Star Trek - weak morality tales mixed with remodulate the frequencies - no offence to Trekkies just not my cup of Tea
