This week in Star Wars Q&A - Theme Park Face Lift! Do you believe in time travel? And More Cantina vs. Joe stuff, that's where the questions are coming from.
Also, The Acolyte had an iffy week.

This week in Star Wars Q&A - a HasLab Blockade Runner - yay or nay? I'm less hopeful. Hasbro's been choking when it comes to figures that can reach out and touch someone. And would we need a new Vader for it? Probably, yeah.
Also, some new ramblings on 3-D printing and scanned vintage toys.

This week in Star Wars Q&A - Enoch is Enoch! But do we need more? And More Cantina vs. Joe stuff, that's where the questions are coming from.
Also, we're out of questions for next week. So send some in!

This week in Star Wars Q&A - The Acolyte Shortages. Where's the Stranger? And HasLab Stuff now that G.I. Joe is up and doing well.
Also, we're out of questions for next week. Send some in, won't you?

This week in Star Wars Q&A - Cantina Futures! Are the playsets enough to drive demand for even more alien toys? Gosh I hope so. And Clone Longevity - can we keep cloning clones and expect a viable line? (I think so.)
Also, we're out of questions for August, so new queries are welcome. We also have some SDCC ramblings, and oh it's almost my 29th anniversary of writing about Star Wars toys on the internet.

This week in Star Wars Q&A - Dark Empire Luke! Is he fair game for figures again? Also R2-D2 - well, a new one is sorta new, but you also sorta already may have it.
And thre's a lot of ramblings about the Cantina, with more to come from you guys in the coming weeks.

This week in Star Wars Q&A - Timing is everything! Since we're getting on-time The Acolyte pre-orders, should we expect more? And The Cantina Box - now it's been funded, so how foxy is the boxing?
Don't forget - the HasLab Cantina playset ends Monday night at Midnight Eastern/ 9:00 PM Pacific. As of my writing this, it's got 10,310 backers. It didn't even have 8,000 on Thursday night.
Also, we're out of questions for two weeks from now. Got one? Send it in!

This week in Star Wars Q&A - Tonnika hand-wringing. Should you wait for single carded versions at stores later? I wouldn't. And plastic is rubbery? Well, if you don't want it to break, yes - this is a good thing.

This week in Star Wars Q&A - The Best Figure - what is it? Also put a ring on it - it being a Jedi Starfighter.
Also, we do have ramblings on the Cantina patron market flaring up and things starting to be unavailable on eBay because demand spiked and supply was never huge in the first place. Let's just say I hope you already bought Trinto Duaba with Dice Ibegon.

This week in Star Wars Q&A - Refreshing the Core Cast - will it happen? Also Parsing the Parts in the Cantina - do you wait to buy the part you want, or buy the whole thing and part it out?
Also, we're out of questions for next week. But we do have ramblings on May the 4th and some other things.

This week in Star Wars Q&A - The Cantina Floor - why not? Also markdowns - price corrections happen! We also have extensive ramblings on The Acolyte, which I am guessing you either didn't watch, didn't enjoy, or didn't decide to make a decision yet. Either way, good on you.

I kid with the headline, but we've been asking Hasbro for Brea and Senni Tonnika since Galoob made one in Action Fleet in 1997. Or I have, at any rate. They're two of the includes (along with Wuher) in Hasbro's STAR WARS The Vintage Collection Mos Eisley Cantina. The base option is $399.99, the deluxe option adds another chunk of booths for another $100 at $499.99, and there are three stretch goals - a Greedo (read below for more on him), Nabrun Leids, and a real shocker, the missing wolfman Arleil Schous.
Is it all worth it? Will this be in a question and answer format? When should you backfill your missing alien stash? Buckle up, this one gets long. Read on!
This week in Star Wars Q&A - We're off! Thanks to a strange blip in our hosting, email was down and if any questions were sent in, they were not delivered.
But I feel like writing something. The Acolyte starts this week with an air of excitement, apprehension, and also whatever lingering sense of trepidation you probably have from something from the last ten years of Disney Star Wars "content." One size no longer fits all, but things do seem to be very appealing to separate groups within the fan community. And like all things pop culture, it's worth giving pretty much everything a chance. If it's great? Congratulations on having a good time. If it's awful? Well, someone is going to make $200,000 off a four-hour YouTube takedown of it eventually. I think that's the new entertainment attention economy in a nutshell.

Happy Friday everybody! Well, maybe, depending on your time zone when you read this.
We had an email outage this week - so we're out of questions, but if you have questions, send some in! You can find the address at the end of the Q&A column every week and I'd love to hear from you. Or, have a break. Either way, I hope the summer is off to a good start!
This week in Star Wars Q&A - Fan Events - what's good? Also Galactic Starcruiser - when will we get the Hasbro figures? Oh, I wouldn't hold your breath.
Also, we're out of questions for next week. But we do have ramblings on May the 4th and some other things.
