Guy Lagacé's Probeshots

Today I have updated Guy Lagacé's ProbeShots with another of his scenes. This is the sixth image for this section. This was Guy's vision of Padmé on Naboo during Attack of the Clones. Remember that these images were his vision of scenes from movies that had not been created. Be sure to also see other great artists in the Featured Artists section. Enjoy!

eFX Shakes Thing Up!

RebelScum has the latest information on eFX and how they will be different from Master Replicas. Here's what eFX has to say :

"As many of you know, we had originally announced that the pre-order day for our very first product, the Stormtrooper Helmet, was to be on May 5, 2008. However, since eFX is a brand new company, we are going to initiate many new groundbreaking ideas that some many even consider "sacrilege" since they will break some old "traditions". We have decided to scratch the whole pre-order process and establish a WORLDWIDE on-sale date when the product will be available the same day whether you are on Los Angeles, Tokyo or London! We will try to announce the availability date at least 30 days in advance. We think that our collectors will appreciate and like this new process."

  • Be able to see images of the actual product before you purchase
  • Allows you to better plan your finances since you will know exactly when your credit card will be charged
  • Eliminates the frustration of waiting an uncertain amount of time before you actually receive your product.

Other products that are on the horizon for eFX include:

  • Ralph McQuarrie Concept Darth Vader helmet
  • Episode 2 Clone Trooper helmet
  • Episode 4 Obi-Wan Kenobi Lightsaber
  • Red 5 X-Wing Fighter

This seems like a fair way to do things. Fans will just really need to be ready for what it is they want to get their hands on.

Samuel L. Jackson Voices Maces Windu

SithClan.net had the opportunity to speak with Samuel L. Jackson at the Hotel Le Bristol in Paris. There they asked if he would be voicing the Mace Windu character in the CGI Clone Wars. Much to their surprise he said yes, that he had in fact voiced the Mace character. If you will remember, MTV had asked him previously if he would be interested in doing so and he was very excited about the idea as long as Lucasfilm gave him a call. I guess they did! Be sure to read the article, but it is originally in French, so get out those translators!
