    Retro video game sub forum?

    I'd like a retro game section. I could be Star Wars themed as there's are quite a few of varying quality.... A general retro games thread would also be cool, but I'm not sure how many gamers we have on here.

    New Kim Simmons book - bulk order

    Yikes, missed this. I'll have one if it's still possible.

    New TROS/Legacy Trailer!

    The reason there is negativity around Star Wars at the moment is that the films aren't very good. If they were, all the other stuff wouldn't matter. Write great characters and give them interesting things to do in the Star Wars universe. It seems like a no brainer but it's obviously very...

    New TROS/Legacy Trailer!

    OT Star Destroyers... Time travel? I really hope not. Didn't think much of the trailer to be honest, and shoving PT and OT stuff together like that never works for me. Still, the fight on the wrecked Death Star looks cool. I want it to be good, but no hype yet.

    D23 Starts Today!

    Yep, looks great, but no Disney+ date has been set for the UK yet. Looks like I'll be getting a VPN instead. Édit: Kenobi series as well with Ewan McGregor. I read somewhere it's only going to be 4 hours, but it could be good. Anything that has ties to the OT has me interested as it will...

    New retroline.......

    I wonder if there's a way to cut a "U" shape from the back of the card to pull that leaflet out. I might give it a try.

    New retroline.......

    Yep, I was on the fence but also just cancelled. I think I'll pick up a Leia and Luke at some point, and if they continue with these I'll just get a few that I really want. It was the large head Han that did it, and the quality, and the card stock...

    New retroline.......

    i just got the Death Star board game with Tarkin delivered from Star Action Figures. Unfortunately the figure has that piece of paper from Hasbro stuck inside the bubble. It's not behind the figure, it's curled up in a "U" shape along the bottom and sides between the outer and inner bubble. I...

    Antiques roadshow

    Now you've said that I can never unsee it! Brilliant.

    Obi-Wan vs. Vader remastered

    It's a type of scene I'd like to see in a new film with Vader, but it's pretty awful shoehorned into Star Wars. Completely different style with a **** ton of lense flare. I had to stop watching when they added dialogue from the prequels. Urgh!

    The Mandalorian Live Action TV Series

    Offscreen footage is up on YouTube so you should try and watch it before it's pulled by Disney, though it could just be a marketing thing because they joked about people not videoing it in the panel. I actually watched the panel after seeing the leaked trailer and extended scene with Herzog -...

    The Mandalorian Live Action TV Series

    That's more like it. Did anyone spot This looks way better than the episode 9 trailer. I wasn't too interested in this and had forgotten that it had a panel at Celebration but it's the best thing that's been shown. Plus Werner Herzog as an ex Imperial Officer is inspired casting. I'm hyped.

    New retroline.......

    Interview with Hasbro from Celebration. They talk mostly about other modern stuff but there is a bit of retro line info in there. https://youtu.be/Q6er7w-6uME It's a sticker in the card, so that's good. I think we will be seeing more figures at some point.

    EP IX Trailer

    I'm a bit conflicted on this. I thought it was a good trailer, but again it leans heavily on nostalgia... which is what I want (!) but in a way I can't respect it. Also, the fact that JJ gave an interview the other day where he said that two years wasn't long enough to make the film because he...

    Episode 9...your personal feelings *No Spoilers*

    I agree. With regards to the OT it has no relation (neither do the prequels for that matter - Darth Vader DID NOT BUILD C3PO!) but as much as I doubt it will be I'd love to see a great Star Wars film again. I'm pretty cynical about it but want to be proven wrong. That leaked poster had some ok...

    New retroline.......

    I'm sure I've read somewhere that they have been resculpted. Someone was saying on some close up photos that you can tell they're new sculpts. Personally I'd love to see a Sandtrooper. That's a no brainer as it would be so easy to make, maybe they will even reissue the Dewback. I'm beginning to...

    New retroline.......

    Well, you've got to presume these are going to sell out fairly quick. At $10 a pop it's not like they're going to price themselves out of the market which is what seems to have happened to the Jumbo figures. I reckon the first 21 is a sure thing, but will we see a retro Imperial Dig? I think it...

    New retroline.......

    Tarkin looks off, but that's the point isn't it? All the old figures look off to some degree and that's adds to the charm of them. For Tarkin to actually look like Peter Cushing it wouldn't be right and it wouldn't fit in with the other vintage figures. I'm not too sure what to think about...

    EPISODE IX - CAST NEWS

    A spin-off film is crewing up at the moment so I'm guessing we will get another one in two years.
