Millennium Falcon Bed - She's Got It Where It Counts, Kid!

There are very few things that have left me speechless in this blog. Well, this is one of them. But since I have to communicate my sheer jaw-dropping excitement for this thing... I believe "nerdgasm" comes close to what I'm feeling.

This Millennium Falcon Bed was created by Kayla Kromer. Make sure to head to her Facebook page to check out the full photo gallery. The working lights just take this from amazing to the sublime!

Sexy Death Star Tattoo - Kaboom!

On more than one occassion in this very blog, we've contended that Star Wars can be sexy. Yes, yes... we know that's it's an "all audiences" piece of entertainment and pop culture... however, that shouldn't (and doesn't) preclude it from being sexy.

While we keep our site rated PG-13ish... we've found more proof of just how very sexy a certain galaxy far, far away can be. Check out this hot Death Star tattoo found on hoshq's pages at DeviantArt. It's taken the web by storm for obvious reasons. Wowza!

We're assuming this battle station is indeed fully operational!

Star Wars Celebration V - "We Come in Peace Orlando"

Talented artist Spencer Brinkerhoff III, who has worked on limited edition Star Wars prints for ACME Archives and Star Wars sketch cards for Topps, has put together this awesome promo poster for Star Wars CV in Orlando.

Star Wars Celebrations usually bring with them some awesome new artwork, from both Lucasfilm approved artists at the Celebration Art Show... as well as the fine art licensee, ACME Archives. Based on this whimsical piece alone, we have a strong feeling that CV will be no exception.

Build Your Own Lego Star Wars Mini-Fig

To help promote their fantastic book, "LEGO Star Wars: The Visual Dictionary", DK Publishing has come up with a wickedly addictive widget on their website that allows fans to create their own Lego Star Wars mini-fig mashup!

So far, I've created at least two dozen... each one making me chuckle more than the last. Are you diggin' my pimped out Lando with four sabers? The scary part is that I could almost picture Lando wearing the orange pants! (All you X-Wing pilots out there better keep tabs on your flight suits!)

Donkey the Hutt T-Shirt

Like every other child of the 80's, I played Donkey Kong as a kid like it was going out of style. So when I came across this "Donky the Hutt" T-shirt design at Threadless.com, I knew I had to have it.

As of the date of this posting, there's still one more day to vote to get the shirt made. So head over there and cast your ballot!

Art Strikes Back

If you live in the Northeast, this weekend is your last chance to check out a very hip and cool art show that is being put on by Art Asylum Boston. Titled "Art Strikes Back", the show is 100% Star Wars themed and features pieces that employ wildly varying styles and the full gambit of mediums.

The piece shown above is just a taste (pun intended) of what you'll find. Titled "Ewok Sundae" it is a Japanese Acryla gouache by Allison Bamford.

Chapter 2 of "IMPS: The Relentless" Now Available

After a very long hiatus (years actually!), fans can finally download Chapter 2 of one of the greatest fan films out there: "IMPS: The Relentless". IMPS is an acronym for Imperial Military Personnel Stories and each episode delivers exactly what life is like being part of the Imperial machine.

If you haven't seen the first chapter, make sure to watch that first. There will be times when you won't believe you're watching a fan film at all! Some truly amazing stuff!!!!





UPDATE: You can also download the newest episode by visiting our pals at Galactic Voyage.
