	TalonCard posted: Let's not forget Mandel's name on his old Star Wars blueprints... With Moonus Mandel and Ord Mandel (WEG Rules Companion), I'd say he's made out pretty good. Rogue_Follower posted: Nor should we neglect the dozens of "Starwarsized" names of authors, contributors, celebrities, and random people. Bwahl the Hutt, Epoh Trebor, Jorg Sacul, etc. Well, these I'd definitely count. At least there's some attempt to hide the original name. It's also less narcissistic. Incidentally, either Sacul is another version of the Antilles/Smith surname, or else Jorg has a twin brother named Egroeg, mentioned over the intercom during the Star Tours ride. Senator_Cilghal posted: An Iron Knight using a lightsabre seems--like enslavement Certainly if its against the will of the Shard in the lightsaber. By the way, inspired by the endnotes article done for the New Essential Chronology, I should be posting a more detailed version of endnotes for Droids and the Force, begun here, in my blog soon.

I'm terrible at anagrams, but I caught this one. We've never seen that character again, have we? TalonCard posted: 2007 would be a good year for an all-out Star Tours exploration, it being the 20th year of the ride... Wow, 20 years. Well as I've mentioned, I'm partial to Star Tours and have always wanted to write something on it. I've got a new editor at Insider now, so maybe he'll be interested.

	A question: Has Luxum, as an Iron Knight to fall to the Dark Side, been canonically mentioned? As far as I can tell it has only been named here on this board by Abel... -----signature-----

	He (she?) certainly is. He's there toward the end of the essay, in the last paragraph of the "Iron Knights" section. He may also pop up in the future. Take care, Abel -----signature----- Abel G.

Take care, Abel well, if the rumors are true that they are working on updating Star Tours to have new destinations, then there definitely needs to be the Star Tours EU tie-in article. when i went to disneyland earlier this month i noticed they had changed the queue area slightly - some of the signs that used to mention safety information or something useless like that now have a listing of destination/gate assignments... including Geonosis. also, the big display board that shows ads for various star tours destinations seemed to have new scrolling marquee text displays (instead of the old ones). -----signature----- Prophet of the Church of Waru.
