Mighty Muggs have barely just gotten back onto store shelves (no, really, they started hitting last week) and here we are with an announcement of a second wave from Star Wars and Marvel. These will be in stores in February already. The big change for these of course is that we have each figure in […]
Sideshow has just unveiled their newest Legendary Scale figure, and it's from the Star Wars line. Want this you will, says Yoda. Now they're not specific if this is a 1/3 scale or 1/2 figure, nor really any of the other details… but they give us a glimpse and a place to sign up for […]
Now that the second-longest continuous writer at Marvel Comics, Brian Michael Bendis, has signed an exclusive deal with DC Comics, everything he ever said anywhere on the internet about DC Comics is up for discussion. Including this great post on his Tumblr from earlier in the year, when asked about the comparative fighting abilities of Batman […]
One of the most under-utilized characters in the Star Wars galaxy is Jedi Master Mace Windu. While he had meaningful screen time in the Prequels, most of the "canon" stories involving him were made Legends when the EU was purged a few years back. SO when Marvel and Lucasfilm announced that Master Windu would […]
Pins. One of the smallest collectibles on the market, but unique and a badge of honor to collectors. Star Wars and pin trading goes all the way back to the 70's, some of the first Star Wars collectibles were pins. My personal favorite is the old "Darth Vadar Lives" mess-up pin: This year at Celebration, […]
As an avid Star Wars collector, you are always on the lookout for anything and everything, every opportunity to add to your collection. Nothing is more thrilling than to come across a huge amount of collectibles all in one place, and that was precisely how I got to spend my Saturday morning. I attended a […]
It's always nice to reflect on the things that happened at SDCC from afar. For a lot of us, that's looking at all of the cool commissions done by our favorite artists. For me, creator of Oddly Normal, Otis Frampton is one such dude whose artwork I adore. One lucky teacher at SDCC requested a Yoda commission, and […]
Sideshow Collectibles now has a sixth scale figure of everyone's favorite tiny green Jedi Master, Yoda. The figure, standing only 5.11" high was sculpted by Joseph Tsang and painted by JC Hong and Lok Ho. He comes with his cane, a small lamp, a crate container and a base made to look like Dagobah. He's […]
You've probably noticed that there is Star Wars merchandise everywhere you look right now. With that, and the release of the movie being right around the holidays, I've been walking around singing my own version of All I Want For Christmas Is You, except I sing, "All I want for Christmas is The Force." While shopping in Kohls the other day, my […]
Got to say I do love the Spider-Girl outrage in the Jawa Hood. Another sketch cover along a theme from Bleeding Cool panellist Frank Cho, from New York Comic Con. I bumped into Robbi Rodriguez at the show as well, he seemed remarkably relaxed about the whole thing now, which is good to see. And he […]
Turns out Jelly Bellys are good for something other than eating… or contests to guess how many are in a jar… here we have three pieces of art made entirely out of Jelly Bellys on display at NYCC. It looks like the Batman one is still a work in progress but Yoda and Darth Vader […]

The upcoming episode of Star Wars Rebels, Path Of The Jedi, features the first appearance of Yoda… it also features a scene reminiscent of the "test" Yoda had Luke take on Dagobah where he confronts Darth Vader and ends up seeing himself… freaked me out as a kid… Wonder what Ezra will find in the ancient […]
IGN has run a clip this morning from Disney's new animated series Star Wars Rebels. In this new clip we get Frank Oz voicing the first appearance of Yoda in the series. The episode, Path Of The Jedi, airs January 4th. [Source: IGN]

Originall published in Star Wars 39-44, you can buy the original magazine collectionfor under ten bucks and the subsequent paperback version for a cent or the more recent Dark Horse republication for five bucks.

It's been a mere 3 months since Disney acquired Lucasfilm, and it has been fascinating to watch the speed at which they've developed plans (or reconfigured existing plans) for the future of the Star Wars franchise. Here's the lastest: There are a handful of Star Wars spin-offs being discussed at Lucasfilm, we understand, and while it's […]
Seems that one of the chief marketing strategies for the re-release of The Phantom Menace in 3D has been to allow characters from the film to bleed out into ads for other products. I suppose that makes a lot of sense. Here's the latest: I'd imaginee an English language version is pretty likely, so I'll […]
