Site Feedback, Suggestions, and Help / Forum upgrade?

« on: August 9, 2019, 10:52 AM »

Is there any chance that the forums could be upgraded to something modern in the near future? I would like to see something that is mobile friendly. It's really hard to read this site on my phone. I would like to be able to "like" individual messages. A media gallery and user blog could be fun. Being able to see a video from you tube in a post would be nice. Maybe add a user status feed? I can think of a lot more features that I enjoy elsewhere. This place is just become too out of date. Maybe there just isn't enough of us to afford it? We could pay for site privileges to help fund the site? Maybe a store? It seems like Star Wars web sites are frozen in time.

Just came across this on Youtube. It is Return of the Jedi acted with Star Wars figures. The figures actually talk along with the recording from the Return of the Jedi story book LP.

The Wookiee Arcade / Star Wars: Secrets of the Empire

« on: January 5, 2018, 09:16 AM »

The VR experience Star Wars: Secrets of the Empire opens at The Void in Down Town Disney at Disneyland Resort this week. It's a virtual reality experience where you were VR goggles and a computer backpack and shoot stormtroopers.

Here’s how the VOID explains the story:
“Under the orders of the budding rebellion, your team will travel to the molten planet of Mustafar. Your mission is to recover Imperial intelligence vital to the rebellion’s survival. Alongside the pragmatic droid K-2S0, your team must navigate through an enemy facility walking into danger at every turn. Disguised as stormtroopers, grab your blaster, solve puzzles, and fight giant lava monsters in an effort to fulfill your team’s orders.”

Star Wars Universe / Is Star Wars special anymore?

« on: January 2, 2018, 12:53 PM »

Since we can expect a new Star Wars movie every year for the foreseeable future does this make a new Star Wars movie opening special? We use to have to wait 3-4 years for a new movie and wait ten years for a new trilogy. Each release felt exciting and new. Now we will get a new movie every year. Each one will be hit or miss in quality and how well it does in the theaters. As for toys, we only get a wave or two major characters now instead of weird background characters. What are your feelings on this? Do you like watching the trilogy movies or the anthology movies? Will one be better than the other? is that feeling of "special" still there?

Power of the Jedi / Clear Darth Vader

« on: November 6, 2017, 03:41 PM »

I just picked up a unpainted clear POTJ Darth Vader dagobah from Hong Kong. Is this bootleg or just an unpainted figure? Any info on this? I kind of like it and it was cheap.
