Grand Admiral’s Return: Thrawn Review

Questionably canon. Definitely an article. Dive into a book that rides the line between new canon and old legends. This novel has all the space pirates and political backstabbing you could want, plus the untold story of the original Grand Admiral – but more importantly, how’s the read? And how well does it flesh out its place in canon?

Emperor Palpatine’s Sentinel Droid (Purist Lego Custom Figure)

It’s almost May the Fourth, and I put together a custom figure to celebrate! Yet to be released in a Lego set, it’s a contingency plan droid as seen in the Shattered Empire comics and more recently in the trailer for EA’s Star Wars: Battlefront II.

Black Series: Rebel Girl Sabine Wren (Review)

Rebel scum never looked so good. A criminally under-utilized character, but a great action figure!

Black Series: AT-ACT Driver (Review)

I’ve been a little busy planning a wedding and I’m getting over a nasty head cold. Now that I’m better, what better way to celebrate with a new Stormtrooper! This Target exclusive is part of the Rogue One set of figures, though I don’t actually remember ever seeing this trooper in the film. Speaking of the film, the home DVD/blu ray release is this Tuesday, April 4th. So there’s no time like the present to revisit Rogue One’s new Imperial trooper variants!

Galactic Empire – The Debut Album (Review)

When I first heard about Galactic Empire (the band and not the beloved Rebel scum crushing ultimate power in the galaxy) it was through a YouTube video of their rendition of The Imperial March. Now this is a song I’ve heard just about every take on; Elevator music, Indian instrumentation,  floppy disk drives, and of course, the countless metal covers.

So what sets this one apart and makes it so great?

Thrawn is Coming

Talk about the Empire’s Elite, am I right? I just preordered my copy of the Barnes and Noble exclusive version of the upcoming Thrawn novel and wanted to share the details for anyone who hasn’t heard the word yet.
