great article about Star Wars: 1,000 Collectibles, due out from Abrams on

such as candy, clothing, toothpaste -- and much more. Drawn from the largest
private Star Wars collection in the known universe, this stunning
treasure trove of memorabilia and colorful anecdotes mixes fun with nostalgia,
delighting both the casual fan and the serious collector. Be sure to read the

Free Clone Wars
Showings At Theaters |
Yesterday was my sons last day of
school and my daughter only has a little over a week left. What does that mean?
It is time again for the Free Family Film Festival that Regal Cinemas provides
every year during the summer. This year is extra special because they will be
running the Clone Wars Movie in June and July depending on your location for
free. Yes that's right... FREE. As with every summer, selected G & PG movies
start at 10AM each Tuesday and Wednesday during the festival. It is only
first-come, first-served and seating is limited to theatre capacity. Be aware
that every day care and kids group will be there so get there early! It is also
during the day, so for those of you that work, you might need to take the
morning off. Be sure to find a theater in your area and you can see lots of great
movies all summer!

Radio Controlled
Landspeeder Concept |
The Official Star Wars Site has a
great article about the landspeeder. This landspeeder is a Kenner toy concept
from the early years that never saw its way to market. In many ways it is
clearly different from the landspeeder action figure toy that was released by
Kenner in 1978. Be sure to read
the entire article!
