Episode 15: 90's Pawn
The Pawn Stars have seen some pretty dope stuff from the 1990s and they're looking back at a few items that are all that and a bag of chips: a jacket from Pulp Fiction, a guitar pedal supposedly used by Kurt Cobain, a juror questionnaire from the O.J. Simpson trial, an early Matt Groening lithograph, a couple of Dennis Rodman jerseys brought in by his ex-wife, some Michael Jackson photos, and a few "Wayne's World" items that leave Rick feeling not worthy.
Episode 17: The Star Wars Vault
Take a look back at some of the best and most unique Star Wars related memorabilia to come through the Pawn Shop. An original "Revenge of the Jedi" poster, a set of 1978 Kenner Star Wars action figures, a Jabba the Hutt Play-Doh set and a rare grouping of Star Wars movie props including a Stormtrooper blaster. The force is strong with some of these items; others were relegated to the dark side of the deal.
