The Sail Barge campaign is definitely piquing interests from long-time collectors whose interest in the hobby has lapsed, and even from those outside the hardcore collector community.  The problem is that the nature of the platform, and the messaging through fan sites, has been confusing for those first time or lapsed collectors.  Click through for answers to some of the most frequently asked questions Bantha Skull has received (and is still receiving).  You can share this with your friends who may still have questions.
