I hope you're right!

That would require them to 1. admit they lied about the reason for the closure and 2. stop the office space conversion currently underway.

A diegetic ad in the trailer for The Mandalorian and Grogu movie reads, "HALCYON — SEE THE GALAXY" and depicts the galactic starcruiser in profile:

2 years ago today, we said goodbye.

Lunch at Space 220 today.

Makes me a little homesick for some reason.

Deleted the post due to confusing phrasing on my part, but for the record, neither Savi nor his son appear at the end of Rise of the Resistance, but CMs have been trained that the scavengers seen at the end of the crash are them. They are not.

I think it's just a verbal fun fact, not a sign of anything to come. The building indicated is part of Ohnaka Transport Solutions.

Gorgeous.

That is not how I interpret the marketing copy. They only solicit a certain number of issues into the future each month. I suspect it would be a much bigger announcement if a title announced as "ongoing" was cancelled.

Where was it announced to be ending?

Bummed it's a limited / retailer incentive variant.

New to me:

Apparently there's a B-mode for Tohan Lege's hologram effect in Fire of the Rising Moons, which has the Lore-weaver projected onto the spires for his intro segment, as he always is for the finale.

I'm taking at least partial credit for this signage change.

Random bracelets in Dok-Ondar's now have added in-universe district names.

The previous version of the sign, with generic unthemed names.

Reskeet with a tweet you still think about

@dril: "in real life yoda would get eaten by a dog"

Reply: "You don't know shit about Yoda"

Six years ago, near midnight, Rey asked me to take her to the Batuuan Wishing Tree, we talked about mentors as we walked, she tied a wish for peace to one of the branches, looked me in the eye, thanked me, and said, "May the Force be with you" with more weight than it had ever been uttered.

Star Wars Sequel Trilogy is 10 years old, say something you like about it

I like when Unkar Plutt gives Rey “one quarter portion”

I hope the next replica in the Savi / Kyber / Holocron / Wayfinder interactive product line for Galaxy's Edge is an archives Holobook.

Nobody's ever done a good version, and we get a solid look in Jedi Survivor and Young Jedi Adventures. Have it activate data entries with the crystals.

The current Disneyland calendar indicates that Star Tours will reopen from its extended refurbishment on Friday, September 5th.

If I had a single piece of evidence Rey interacted with her, she'd be on there!

It was announced here! But when folks started having their orders bounce, I removed the posts out of an abundance of caution.

Over the years I've made it a point to not meet Doug Chiang, for fear of passing out.

I, thankfully, remained conscious.

Nick + Doug. They talked about Starcruiser, because what else would they talk about?

The new Disney Parks Starspeeder 1000 toy plays three fixed combinations of destinations:

Kef Bir / Crait / Batuu
Tatooine / Coruscant
Tatooine / Seatos

Sadly, the podrace is duplicated in two of the three, but I'm delighted to find the Batuu ending was included!

The Starspeeder 1000 has joined it's real-world predecessor / canonical successor! Glad to see all the pieces that were retooled for accuracy.
