Can someone post the line about Luxum? All I have is,

However, the decimation of the Hosk space station is known to have prompted the fall of at least one Iron Knight to the dark side.


which presumably refers to Luxum...

I have notes on Star Tours... wink The rumor that it will be updated has been around at least since 1999. I doubt that it's high on Lucas's prioirity list.

Hey folks!

Just posted Part 1 of Endnotes for Droids and the Force, a revised, formalized, and expanded version of the notes I posted here. Check it out!

Hope you like it, SBD. Probably the most personal piece of all my Star Wars work, and somewhat surprised it ended up being published after all these years.

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.
Yeah... a friend showed me a pic and one of those signs actually included Panna from the Holiday Special cartoon. Rather surprising.


jawajames posted:
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).
Guess I need to take some new notes next time I get out there.

Take care,
Abel

hey Abel, my friend. About your Droids article I reread recently I got a question:

can you do a follow up of it, or include some notes into upcoming works? HK47 from Kotor and other Kotor droids need some coverage! especially how HK47 survived to be around in OT based SW Galaxies game! happy

and about droid rights and such stuff.. more on HRD droids like Guri, and her life would be cool, too. or famous Mouse Droids etc.

I'd consider the MSE that Kyle Katarn drives in Jedi Outcast pretty heroic... wink

I'd once planned a webstrip called 60, as a semi-spoof of 24, which would have shown an hour in the life of a Mouse Droid on the Death Star---its final hour. Intrigue, mystery, suspense! mischief tongue

YES, I loved that Mouse Droid in the game! imagine something of Katarns personality being left in the Mouse Droid after the encounter :-P heroic Mouse Droid Commando.

the NJO also had Anti-YV Mouse Droids in heavy use!

and, about your webstrip, I want to see it! maybe the mighty mouse droid saved Chief Bast before the Death Star detonated, and sacrificed himself?

or tank sized mouse droids in use for the clone wars.. mouse droids bigger than humans :-P the ancestor models

... and I thought that having Force-sensitive and Dark Side-trained droids in my fanfic was original.

Drat. *is going to have to read some of these stories now*

May not be necessary, considering Dan Wallace's New Essential Guide to Droids on the horizon.

Ooh, I like HRDs. Again, though, Dan might already have this covered.

Mouse droids too. wink

You're just getting Rogue all fired up now.

1 webstrip for each minute? You're braver than I thought.

So tell me, are all our brains wired into the same computer, or what? cool
