    I was excitied to see that Burger King is back doing the food promotions for Star Wars finally once again.

    There are 31 toys altogether that will be in the Burger King kids meals?.
    Pull backs, wind ups, water squirters, plushies, and image viewers.
    The images below are available at Rebelscum and TFN.

    I was hoping they would be releasing the movie collector glasses like they did back for the original trilogy back in the day, but so far no word on that.

    The plastic cups with the figures they have now are ok, but I want my collector glass to be actually made of glass.

    I know I will be keeping an eye out and if anyone else finds out any more news on promotional and collectibles from ROTS please kindly post here in this thread.

    The last three were removed at BK's request? lol, now thats funny.

    I've seen them already and they are pretty cool. I have them saved to my PC. Maybe I'll host them and post them for you to see.

    That would rock! I still have a couple of the originals. RotS glasses would so compliment the saga as a whole. Bring it full circle ;)

    Sounds like that could be very cool, but not of the pictures were shown b/c they said that they had been taken down per BKs request.

    I saw them too, very cool. I hope they make glasses too. I had the emperor one and the ewoks one, me and my brother had them for years, since he was a kid and got them actually, and just recently the ewok one broke!

    I do not have those.

    I was at the Comic Store today and the Manager gave me an Episode 3 Promo card for the Topps movie cards.It shows Anakin and Count Dooku dueling with Chancellor Palpatine strapped to a chair in the background.

    I saw a pic of that card over at RebelScum.com earlier in the week. The scan someone posted was very weird looking. The entire thing, including Ani and Dooku looked like CGI. How does it look in person?

    I think I'll splurge and buy myself a Hobby Box of these when they come out. There's a boatload of inserts to be had!

    I almost forgot to post this before about upcoming merchandise available to purchase as of February 1st from STARWARSSHOP.COM

    Revenge of the Sith stuff

    Some of these are going to be in stock and some will be pre-orders.

    Episode III Exclusives Available Feb 1 from StarWarsShop.comJanuary 20, 2005.
    On February 1, StarWarsShop.com will be offering a smuggler's stash of over 30 new in-stock and preorder items to fans along with an all new Episode III lenticular poster card. This exclusive 10 x 8-inch card, available only to customers of StarWarsShop.com, features the striking new Darth Vader product banner artwork along with the tilt-motion image of Obi-Wan and Anakin locked in their climactic duel. These will be bundled with select new products, or available for purchase separately. In addition, all customers will receive an exclusive Topps Episode III promo card free with any purchase while supplies last. These will be available nowhere else, so make sure to stop by the shop to get yours!

    · An extremely limited quantity of the horizontal 15'x10' Episode III teaser banners hung in theaters across the country, exclusively available from StarWarsShop.com. Because these are authentic theater-used banners, these will show a bit of worldly wear
    · Several new lightsabers from Master Replicas, including both the full scale and .45 scale versions of Anakin's Episode III lightsaber, and the Darth Vader's FX lightsaber from Episode V.
    · Hasbro's new preview figure assortment and vehicle, including General Grievous, Tion Medon, Wookiee Warrior, R4-G9, and Anakin's Starfighter
    · Hasbro's new Episode III Wookiee Super Soaker and Darth Tater
    · LEGO's new Anakin's Starfighter and TIE Fighter including Darth Vader figure with light up Lightsaber

    I just thought I would share some links to a few pages from the comic adaption to Episode 3.

    link 1

    link 2

    link 3

    link 4

    link 5

    These pages aren?t necessarily in order and should be considered spoilers even though they don?t give away much.

    I have some ideas as to what's going on but don't want spoil it for anyone. HTR I guess.


    Page 1: Opening space battle

    Page 2: Obi-Wan on a misson to take out the General, set up by Palpatine to get Anakin alone

    Page 3: Obi,Mace and Yoda discuss their distrust of Palpatine and telling Obi-Wan to talk to Ani

    Page 4: Anakin tells Obi-Wan who the Sith Lord is, setting a trap for the Jedi, Yoda,Mace and Obi-wan then plan a course of action.

    Page 5: The General gets word to expect Obi-Wan

    At least that's what I think. It'll be fun to check back and see if I was right or not.

    I noticed a Grievous Unleashed figure in the earlier list of new toys. I'm curious as to what other characters might get added to that line? Maybe a new Sidious w/ lightsaber, or a Wookie Commando, maybe even a new Anakin after he falls to the Dark Side but before the Vader transformation.

    The first wave of ROTS Unleashed figures will contain a Grevious, Obi-Wan and Anakin figure. If you head over to Galactic Hunter they have pics of them up. The Anakin is fantastic looking. It's of him during the final battle with lava rising up around him. His face has an expression of pure hatred on it with dark, sunken eyes. Very well done!
