Managed to pick up a Black Series 6" Boba Fett figure. These are selling now for usually double the retail price on Evilbay.

Ugh, so jealous. I've been looking casually but have yet to find one. I want it so bad.

I was at Forbidden Planet in London the other day and there was a whole rack of these figures for £22. Some guy on evilbay is selling one for £50!

Ugh. Keep an eye out, eh? If I can't find one here we may have to work something out. This is the Boba Fett figure I always wanted growing up. Reminds me of the 300th figure special they were doing ages ago. I drooled over that thing for months and never got one (though I see there's one on Ebay for 30 bucks signed by Mr. Bulloch himself, hmm...)

*Edit* Whoa, what? His rangefinder doesn't move? I don't think there's been a Boba figure that hasn't had a movable rangefinder since the 90s. Weird.

Keep Circulating the Tapes.

Just in case you were wondering what Mr. Binks has been up to lately...

I would have given Tarkin a larger role in the prequels.

Jar Jar Binks in a baseball uniform with the TOS font. I'm appalled.

That's not Jar Jar. That's what you get when you get Jar Jar and Boss Nass drunk and leave them alone in a room together.

Darth Plagueis got an action figure?! One name drop in the prequels, and a oft delayed novel is apparently all you need these days.

Dammit. That's going to really test the vow I took to never watch PT era garbage.

At first I was not impressed, then I got more and more impressed as I scrolled down. I want this to be a real thing.

Lightsabers are cool, we get it. Why not make blasters cool in the new movies? I know that they have more than one setting, so let's see some set for disintegration already!

You probably don’t recognize me because of the red arm.
Episode 9 Rewrite, The Starlight Project (Released!) and ANH Technicolor Project (Released!)

People! I've just discovered what a midi-chlorian does! They were never the Force at all - they're simply used to measure a person's relation to the Force! (Also they measure MIDIs and chlorine content.) In fact it works almost exactly like radiation.

Well that clears a lot of things up. :3

Ol’ George has the GOUT, I see.
