Obi-Wan Kenobi's Cloak on Sale.

Alex

London theatrical costume company Angels is auctioning off some iconic movie costumes, like the Star Wars cloak worn by Alex Alec Guinness as Obi-Wan Kenobi:

But buyers were waiting for the star lot at the Bonhams sale, the brown hooded cloak worn by Guinness when he played Obi-Wan Kenobi in the first Star Wars film. It was estimated to fetch between 50,000 pounds and 60,000 pounds.

Alec Guinness was in Star Wars: A New Hope. He played Obi-Wan Kenobi or "Ben" Kenobi. So they didn't get screwed, except paying way too much for a piece of cloth.

Like every cereal company, they cut back on sugar and people quit buying them. Just like Coke & Pepsi won't listen to the customers that don't want corn syrup in their soft drink.

Qwisp and Quake were the same cereal. General Mills introduced them at the same time, and created a rivalry between the two characters - then made kids vote on who would win. Qwisp won.
