Stargate SG-1 - Kids Need to Read: Christopher Judge Charity Auction

From Kids Need to Read:

http://community.kidsneedtoread.org/?p=575



Chel Nak, Teal’c!!

After an unprecedented 10 seasons, the TV hit Stargate SG-1 has been given new life in the direct-to-DVD movie Stargate: The Ark of Truth, an absolute “must-see” for all Stargate fans. Kids Need to Read Charity Auctions is proud to present an Australian edition of the feature packaged in an exclusive Collector’s Tin and signed by actor Christopher Judge.

Chris has played the burly, taciturn Jaffa warrior Teal’c since SG-1 first aired. In addition to his acting credits, the talented Mr. Judge is also a writer, photographer and singer! He recently made his first Australian appearances at fan conventions in Melbourne and Sydney, where he signed this unique item.

Inside the collector’s tin is a brand new, unopened copy of The Ark of Truth, which completes Stargate’s story of the Ori. The cast includes all the Season 10 series regulars, as well as Firefly’s own Morena Baccarin in her recurring role as Adria. Special features are the audio “Commentary with Robert C. Cooper, Christopher Judge and Peter Woeste,” and 3 featurettes: “The Ark of Truth: Stargate at Comic-Con,” “Uncovering The Ark of Truth,” and “Stargate SG-1: The Road Taken—Prelude to Stargate: The Ark of Truth.”

Note: This DVD is formatted for playback on PAL enabled systems (Australian, UK, and Europe Standard). Outside of region 4, it will play if both the DVD player and TV are PAL compatible.
