By Adam Pawlus — Tuesday, October 12, 2010

If you have an Xbox 360 or Playstation 3 connected to the internet, you can download a playable demo of an early stage of Star Wars: The Force Unleashed II right now.  It's about 700 megs, so while big it should provide a nice sampling of what's to come very soon.  Assuming you buy the game, of course.

By Adam Pawlus — Monday, October 11, 2010

Crawling through the mud is good fun for a Clone Trooper but when it isn't posed to do anything else... is it any good?  This limited-articulation figure came in a cheap 3-pack.  Is it worth buying?  Read on!

Star Wars Figure of the Day: Day 1,388

By Adam Pawlus — Friday, October 8, 2010

Hasbro's first attempt at a non-R2-D2 astromech droid form was one of its best.  The then-nameless Astromech Droid later christened R2-R9 had a light-up light (rather than the eyeport, which never lights up) and tons of articulation with no ugly action features to get in the way.  In 1999, it was beautiful-- and it's still
