I'm Bill Cable. This is my site. I started "collecting" Star Wars back in 1978. My first figure was Greedo, and I still remember pulling him off the card in the back of my dad's station wagon (my brother got Walrusman). I collected many of the figures up until the POTF figures came out in '85. The last figure I bought was Han Carbonite (my brother got Luke Stormtrooper). I remember being thrilled that a new "Power of the Force" movie was coming out... Later, I saw the Droids and Ewoks figures on the pegs, but they really didn't interest me at all.

I took off about 10 years from collecting, and sold off my entire collection at flea markets. Then I started buying POTF2 back in 1995. I was active on-line... contributing regularly to RASSC (and both RASSCM and RASSCV after the spilt). When I graduated from UVA in 1997 and moved to Ohio, I tried to start an Ohio SW Collecting Club... only to find out one already existed!! I joined... and within the first couple months designed the first OSWCC T-shirt. One of the guys was so impressed by the art I did for the rejected idea that he bought it. And he talked me into drawing more. And selling them. The idea took off, and I ended up creating an on-line gallery at www.SWDrawings.com. That lasted until 2001, when I found art alone not to be enough to sustain me... I longed for comedy!! And thus this site was born. So now I can do my art, do my comedy schtick and CRUSH AND HUMILIATE ALL THOSE WHO WOULD OPPOSE ME!!!!!

"Love is diving head first into a cluttered action figure bin and finding a
rare figure for $2.99."

A self-avowed bottom feeder in the collecting community, Tresob Yr will pretty much buy any action figure if the price is right, whether it's a half-priced AOTC peg-warmer or an "80s mixed lot" with a low starting bid. He has been producing action figure photo-comics since spring of 2002 when he launched the Star Wars Action Figure Theatre's production of Hamlet and the Cobra Commander Coffeehouse, among other projects (see http://swaft.info ).

He joined the Creature Cantina team in the fall of 2004 where he continues to make modest contributions. At maximum speed, he can now script, shoot, layout, and edit a five-panel comic page in under forty-five minutes. His forearm-mounted null-ray cannons can stun an undergraduate for up to an hour. He is also a dues paying member of the DCSWCC (http://www.dcswcc.com ). Among his known weaknesses are a short attention span, insufficient funding, and an unhealthy need for continual positive reinforcement.

I've been a Star Wars fanatic since my mom finally let me see the movie in 1978. I have a Dark Side Anakin costume (minus the boots) and a full custom made Tusken Raider outfit. Have all the original figures, just not in their original packaging. I haven't run out of collectibles to buy, but am currently running out of space in my house to store it all.

The only thing larger than my Star Wars collection is the number of Playboy Playmate autographs and Playboy memorabilia I have. I also am a big CSI fan and love horror films, especially "Nightmare on Elm Street" and "Saw." Aside from collecting, my other hobby is acting in local plays, most notably "Arsenic and Old Lace," a show I've had 5 roles in 7 separate productions. My favorite role is Jonathan Brewster, the evil brother originally played by Boris Karloff. During one of the shows, one of the audience came up to me after the play and said (and I quote) "I saw the original production with Karloff in 1942, you were almost as good."

CreatureCantina.com and Bill Cable have given me the opportunity to pursue one of my longtime dreams, to write about Star Wars. Together, we can keep the galaxy far, far away alive.

My name is really Sandy Rivers. Really. Growing up in and around Dallas, Texas, I was constantly being called, "Muddy Waters", "Dirty Pond", and "Silty Stream" by my friends and loved ones. I even got a "Filthy Ditch" once. Contrary to popular belief, I'm a man, baby. I used to receive more feminine hygiene product samples in the mail than my wife did, until I wrote the good people at Tampax a letter (Dear Tampax, Please stop sending me samples of your product. I am a man. Besides, the dry-weave keeps sticking to my nutsack.).

Look for my Quick Shot every week right here! It's pretty much all I'm good for. Well, that and correcting spelling mistakes in the forums...

I was always a fan of the OT and actually got to see all of them in the original theater release before Lucas hacked them up. I had a lot of the figures as a child and unfortunately sold most of those at a yard sale to fund Transformers toys. I started to recollect the toys when I saw some in a store locally for sale. After that it was all downhill. :^)

Today, I have completed most of the regular lines of toys and now focus only on Bossk items. Doing this has made me work a little harder and also gained me some great contacts/friends in the hobby.

Non hobby related, I work at a audio/video retail store as the Car Audio Manager. I have been into cars and such ever since I could drive. It's the redneck in me showing his ugly head. I am a homeowner, have 2 cats and am recently available. If you are looking for a good time, please call 1-800-DO-BALDY. I won't regret it but you might.

Here is a pic of me in an all too familiar pose: A gun to my chest and she don't look happy. Was it my B.O. or was it because I told her " Nice guns." Oh well.....

I collect loose vintage, some newer stuff, a ton of odds and ends stuff like SW CCG, Dave Dorman SW lithographs, Kit Fisto prototypes, SW comics and graphic novels, and SW autographed figures and photos. I also collect GI Joe from the early 80's because that's when they were cool!

I also do SW customizing, when I have a chance, which is never since I decided to grow up a little bit.

I enjoy long walks on the beach, candle lit dinners, warm bubble baths and,,,,, Whoa, wrong bio!!!

I live in Altoona, Pennsylvania, which is the closest thing to hell on earth. I didn't move here by choice. I am married to a very understanding wife who puts up with alot of my crap. My two kids (Connor & Kylie) are too young to be embarrassed by their “old man” yet. But don’t worry that day will be coming soon.

I have two B.S. degrees from Slippery Rock University (yes, it is a real school with books and everything), where I was on the lacrosse team and am currently working on a Masters from St. Francis University
