"Although the last Star Wars movie came out three
years ago, the battle over rights and ownership
of the costumes used in the films is still
raging. George Lucas, the director who dreamed up
the lucrative series, is suing the prop designer
who made the stormtrooper helmets and suits for
the original 1977 film because he is selling
replicas to fans for £1,800 a time."
