The scene with a Porg piloting the Millennium Falcon probably ended up on the cutting room floor while The Last Jedi was in post-production, but for $10 you can soon recreate it on your desk, all day long. The Porg Battle Roller will be available at San Diego Comic-Con, but for those who can’t make it to California next month, it will also be available from MattelShop.com starting at 10am (PST) on June 26 next week.

Alas, Star Wars fans, it would appear that we might never learn Boba Fett’s entire backstory after all—at least, not in the form of a Star Wars Story film. According to a new report, Lucasfilm has suspended plans for future spin-offs under the banner that brought us Rogue One and Solo, opting instead to focus on Star Wars: Episode IX and whatever trilogy might follow it. Collider writes that a rumored Obi-Wan film has also been nixed; a representative for Lucasfilm did not immediately respond to V.F.’s request for comment.
Truthfully, it’s probably wise for Lucasfilm to rethink this strategy. Mythologizing every last detail of the original trilogy has proven to have diminishing returns; one of the most common criticisms leveled against Solo was the film’s dependence on callbacks and shoehorned references to previous Star Wars movies. Solo’s soft box office—by the numbers, it was the first Star Wars film to officially flop—proved that the Star Wars Story label is not necessarily enough to guarantee the kind of success Lucasfilm is used to. So, Boba Fett and Obi-Wan might have to wait for their big-screen close-ups. In Boba Fett’s case, that’s a relief; the character is interesting particularly because of the things we don’t know about him. The same might also be true of Obi-Wan, whose story has been told in several Star Wars films already—The Phantom Menace through A New Hope, plus Force Ghost appearances in The Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi.

The Washington DC Metro Area Star Wars Collecting Club (DCSWCC) wishes to announce their eighth biannual charity lapel pin. The 2018 pin features Luke in his black Jedi garb holding a glimmering green lightsaber in the shape of the club’s signature Washington Monument. Eighth in the series of high-quality pins, and officially licensed by Lucasfilm Ltd., each pin is individually stamped and numbered – only 500 will ever be made!
All proceeds benefit the Tragedy Assistance Program for Survivors (www.taps.org). TAPS offers compassionate care to all those grieving the death of a loved one who served in the United States Armed Forces. Since 1994, TAPS has provided comfort and hope 24 hours a day, seven days a week through a national peer support network and connection to grief resources, all at no cost to surviving families and loved ones. This is a most fitting charity tribute for DCSWCC, because in February the club lost a beloved friend, long-time club officer and treasurer, Luke Jedi focus collector, and retired U.S. Navy Lieutenant Bob Martinazzi.
DCSWCC has a rich history of supporting children’s charities in the Washington DC region. Their other charity pins featured Yoda, Chewbacca, the animated Boba Fett, Luke on his tauntaun, R2-D2, Commander Cody, and BB-8, and have raised over $34,000 for organizations including Children’s National Medical Center, The Children’s Inn at NIH, and Believe in Tomorrow Children’s Foundation.
To order your pins, visit http://store.dcswcc.org today!
DCSWCC is one of the oldest, largest, and most active collecting clubs in America, with about 50 members. The club meets monthly and holds special events throughout the year such as socials, picnics, and “Roadshow” appraisal events. For more information, visit the club website at http://www.dcswcc.club

25 Hilarious Han Solo And Lando Calrissian Memes
on June 19, 2018 at 7:13 pmPosted In: Star Wars News
Via ScreenRant.com:
The latest addition to the Star Wars galaxy of films may have underwhelmed at the box office, but it did shine a light on a couple new spots of the canon, and established a deeper thread to the Empire with the introduction of Crimson Dawn. It also reunited the two biggest troublemakers the Rebels in the Galaxy.
In a coming-of-age origin story that jumps off a cliff into the emotional baggage of Han Solo, the standout story thread was the genesis of his friendship with Lando Calrissian.
The two are introduced when Solo and one of his first crews has to put together a heist. Business tints their friendship from the moment Han spots that Lando’s a card cheat. With the solid performances from Alden Ehrenreich and Donald Glover, who play Han and Lando respectively, the pair’s friendship is never in doubt. In this case, it feels fated rather than forced, so when they’re taking their place in the Millennium Falcon, alongside Chewie, all the pieces are just falling into place.
Whether they’re the galaxy’s best Odd Couple or just a more conniving Tom Sawyer and Huck Finn, a reunion between these two actors is the best reason for a Solo sequel. If the studio has any chance of throwing good money after bad and running a referendum experiment on their spin-offs, a follow up movie could chase the two to Tatooine, and trace the ways the Empire divides the fan-favorite friendship.

Todd Fisher Opens Up About Death of Carrie Fisher
on June 19, 2018 at 12:20 amPosted In: Star Wars News
Via Variety.com:
Carrie Fisher and Debbie Reynolds spent decades in the public eye. Nothing was off limits for the Hollywood mother-daughter duo. In interviews, stage shows, memoirs. and thinly veiled works of fiction such as “Postcards From the Edge,” Fisher and Reynolds dissected their tumultuous relationship, speaking candidly about everything from drug addiction to bad romances. What’s left to say?
“Everyone has read a million Carrie/Debbie stories. The only problem is, there are two million Carrie/Debbie stories,” said Todd Fisher, the other product of Reynolds’ ill-fated union with crooner Eddie Fisher.
So Todd Fisher decided to follow in his mother and sister’s footprints and write his own memories of growing up Reynolds with his new book “My Girls: A Lifetime with Carrie and Debbie.” His is a happier story. Carrie Fisher felt neglected by her father, a popular but reckless singer, who famously left Reynolds for Elizabeth Taylor. She also struggled with bipolar disease.
