Ships Section Updated

Today I have updated the Ships Section with the Aurek Fighter. The page includes a Flash video of the ship to give you something a little more interesting. You can get a listing of ships using their picture by type at the Ships Section. Or, if you would like to see an alphabetical listing of all of our ships and vehicles, you can check out the Ship Index. If you have a ship you would like to see me add, then e-mail me the request and I will do my best to add it for you. Enjoy!

Newsstand

Now here is my question and concern. Since Titan picked up the Insider, they have had the great idea of having separate covers for subscribers. My problem is I keep getting the newsstand cover. I thought is was a mix-up the first time, but it seems to keep happening. Is anyone else who is a subscriber getting the wrong cover? Or is the Official Star Wars Site confused on which is which?

Please let me know which version you are getting at jedipower@galactic-voyage.com. Thanks!

The Force Unleashed HD Trailer

Just in time for the holidays, we have obtained the new HD Trailer for Star Wars: The Force Unleashed. At almost DVD quality, the trailer clocks in at 1:55 and is filled with great shots; some are old, but you can see what the game truly will look like. You will need to download Divx Codec, as it is very “hardcore.” The download is only 3 minutes and definitely worth it.

New Star Wars Auction Site

There is a new auction site that recently launched that is specifically for Star Wars enthusiasts, RebelTradingPost.com. The site was created by Brandon Phillips and Tad Jones, who said they just wanted to create a web-site where people who are passionate about Star Wars could buy, sell or chat.

"I was tired of looking for something specific and having to look at thousands of other products," said Phillips, who used to be a volunteer forum monitor at www.starwars.com. "The mega sites are great concepts, but we wanted to offer someplace a little quieter. A place designed just for the enthusiast."

The site is simple to use, the fee structure is competitive and best of all, there's a FREE Giveaway every month.

"One thing we wanted to do to reward people for using the site was offer a FREE Giveaway," Phillips said. "Every month we will have a random drawing for over $75 in Star Wars related items." This month's giveaway is a Luke Skywalker Force FX lightsaber.

To be eligible to win the prize you simply have to register on the site, which is free. There are ways to increase your chances like buy an item, list an item or refer a friend. "The site is designed to be simple and fun for the enthusiasts," Jones said. "An auction site they can call home." Be sure to go and check it out!
