No but it's worth checking out..... parts if anything else. Most of the major costume places in Tucson are closing, must not be a good business anymore, at least here.

Hyperspace members get early admission to both events -- for Celebration IV, there's an entire day that's available only to Hyperspace members. Sign up today to make sure you don't miss out on this early access. Furthermore, at both Celebrations there will be events and programming exclusive to Fan Club members, such as the Fan Club Lounge where you'll be able to casually chat in person with Star Wars celebrities. Also, Star Wars Fan Club Breakfasts are coming back, available only to Fan Club members -- meet with fellow fans, Star Wars VIP guests and get exclusive keepsakes and goodie bags.

First Looks and Sneak Peeks at new Star Wars Projects: From time to time, get a glimpse at some of the bold, exciting new frontiers that Star Wars will be exploring in the years ahead.

Six Issues of Online Supplements for Star Wars Insider: Go beyond the pages of the official magazine with these bonus articles. Often packed with downloadables, these issues give you bonus content not available anywhere else. Also, the archives are filled with classic issues of Lucasfilm Fan Club magazine and other Star Wars Insider articles.

Bantha Tracks Online: The online celebration of fan creativity and enthusiasm, each issue of Bantha Tracks is packed with photos and stories from fans around the world. And, coming later in the year, more printer-friendly versions of the newsletter so you can share with offline family and friends and keep them in your scrapbook for prosperity.

Collector Benefits: Get VIP treatment at StarWarsShop with discounts on select merchandise, early purchase rights on hot items and exclusive product opportunities for members only. Get back your subscription price and more with exclusive Shop discounts.

Connect with Fellow Fan Club Members: To start, you'll be able to connect with fellow Fan Club members on blogs and an exclusive message board, and there are more opportunities to come.

Test Drive New starwars.com Features: Over the next 12 months, starwars.com will be venturing into new grounds with new features, and Hyperspace members will get an opportunity to try some of them out for the first time.

Access to An Exclusive Membership Kit: For U.S. fans, the membership kit comes as a free bonus for the base subscription price. This is a physical kit of goodies mailed out during your subscription that includes an exclusive poster, unique extras and a letter from George Lucas. For Canadian and international fans, the membership kit is available with a subscription at a slightly higher price for shipping and handling.

Instant Access to an Online Membership Kit: While waiting for your physical kit to arrive, dive into a digital kit filled with virtual goodies. There are desktop wallpapers, messenger icons, printable goods and an all-new Hyperspace-exclusive audio commentary for A New Hope. And that's just the start -- throughout the year, the Online Kit will be added to with more commentaries and more downloadables to enjoy. If you're already a member, get started here now.

I've been looking at all the toys r us, target, walmart, and KB around and I can only find the clone blasters.

If anyone can find a DH-17 (rebel blaster) please tell me. 3 weeks ago they were $4.89 at Target and now I can't find any at all in any store.
