I have never ever heard the HS animated segment called that before. Somebody had better produce some vintage documentation backing that up, or I’m calling bantha poodoo. 😉

And where the heck is Droids?

Same here mate, I honestly wasn’t sure if it was my faulty memory / mandela effect / another Lucas retcon™…

Though, a quick online search from circa 2008-2012…

and from SKot’s awesome StarWarsHolidaySpecial.com site back in May 2005 - www.starwarsholidayspecial.com/swhs-old/news-2005.htm

Like these guys - http://coldbananas.com/2014/12/television/star-wars-flashback-the-story-of-the-faithful-wookiee-1978 - I just called it ‘the Boba Fett cartoon’ 😃
 

 
 

Disappointing there is no love for ‘Star Wars: Droids😦

(other than the full version of the 1978 Star Wars Holiday Special, it’ll be the only Star Wars release not available?)

Which is a little strange… especially with all the Boba Fett & Mandalorian love going around. Seems Boba’s appearance in the ‘Star Wars: Droids’ episode “A Race to the Finish(the 4th episode of season 1) is all but forgotten…
