An estimated $200,000 USD worth of Star Wars merchandise was stolen from Steve Sansweet, the owner of the world's largest private collection of Star Wars memorabilia.
The collection, which Sansweet has accumulated over the last 40 years, contains 400,000 items in total, according to ABC7 News (via Variety). Notable items include a $5,000 USD wind-up R2D2, a $1,000 USD cardboard Death Star, and "every action figure."
The Bay Area collector says he began buying memorabilia because it was like "bringing home a piece of the movie." He added, "I didn’t mean to have the world’s largest collection, it just happened."
