Bill McBride, from Washington DC, is the owner of the
world’s largest collection of Darth Vader memento. The 42-year-old
Star Wars fan has been working on the massive collection for the past 20
years, spending over $280,000 on 60,000 items including figurines,
artwork and replica lightsabers.
Bill’s obsession with the iconic Star Wars villain began when he was
five years old. “The moment Darth Vader burst on screen in Star Wars, I
was immediately a fan of the character,” he said. “When you have the
imposing, powerful presence of David Prowse, the other-worldly voice of
James Earl Jones, all wrapped up in one of the coolest, most amazing
costumes in movie history, you can’t help but fall in love.”
