AR:SE:HD?

This acronym just gets ruder and more Scottish with each new iteration  :-D


 What about AR:SE:PAL for a proper Scottish transfer?


 It seems to me that once an HD version is completed the NTSC vs. PAL thing is no longer an issue.  Besides, who wants to go through all the trouble to make something like this just to crank it up so it plays too fast and all the music is off key just so a Pal version can exist?
Bingo makes jokes.

Filming an AT-AT?

Is the Echo Base hanger done then?

It seems quite a bit has happened recently behind the scenes.

Is the shield generator explosion done now?

I am not asking to see any of this but good progress is well....a good thing.

Do what?

No.

Yep.

I believe so.

Thanks.

Wow, OK...  I didn't think the proportions would be accurate enough or the surface detail, er, detailed enough to use on screen.  Is it really that good?  I had the old one, back in the day, even re-painted it, but how much work would it take to jazz this one up?  Are there after-market kits?  Photo-etch, that sort of thing?
From what I can tell, with a different radar, some paint, and some more detail pieces, it's pretty amazingly close. Definitely cheaper than a scratch build or any of the out-of-print model sets.

They do make after-market kits for pieces, but that's why we have access to a 3D printer! ;-)

[Disturbingly obsessive and also TFN-friendly diagram]

While I like that Splinter of the Mind's Eye and the original Marvel comics are placed in their own separate timelines apart from the main EU, I do find it irksome that there's only one EU timeline and no timelines for the different versions of the OT.


 Maybe it would be fine to draw a thread from the PT to the SE-T, but it's completely offensive not to have the OOT set off with no connection to the PT, since there is no continuity between the PT and the OOT.

Also is "Clone Wars Multimedia Project" a reference to the Cartoon Network shorts?
I like how it takes into account 7, 8, & 9, but stubbornly refuses to just make the entire thing a straight line with only the Disney canon.

At least it doesn't pretend the Jedi Prince books should be canon.

When Adywan talks about the "Hasbro Millennium falcon playset," what, exactly, is this?  I googled it and all I could see is the newer, bigger, version for the 3" figures...  Terribly cool, but surely this can't be what he's talking about.  Is there a link someone could provide?  Just curious to see what he's referencing, thanks.
Sounds like you found it. It actually doesn't fit the 3" figures. It doesn't do anything, its just a giant almost-perfectly scale plastic model. With some bits and bobs people have been making it 100% accurate.

Ady says it's a couple inches shy of being 1/48 scale, but he can account for that without an issue. This means he can use the 1/48 scale models he's building and put them right next to it and they'll be perfect.

I wish Ady would do RotJ:R first before moving on to the PT. But from the sounds of it, he's going to do RotJ:R and PT:R all at once.


 Really, now? Where'd you hear that?
Looks like April 2013. ;-)

How long is a &quot;year&quot; in SW?
Time

It you're willing to settle for a formerly-ostensibly-canon-thing-which-is-now-a-completely-non-canon-thing from the EU, then a year in the SW Galaxy is either ten months long or twelve months long (as one would expect from the EU, there's a lack of consistency).


I'm assuming all "years" are based on the Imperial definition of how long a year is, since a year is based on a planet revolving around its star and would depend on the planet assuming it works the same as earthly years. I would imagine there is some sort of official Republic or Empire time-keeping system in place
Coruscant Standard Time, Corellian Adjusted Time, Tattooine Double Time.
