Hey everyone!
We are less than a week away from the next STAR WARS DAY!!
Anyone else have plans for it? I am thinking I will celebrate over the weekend: Empire Strikes Back on Saturday, then Mandalorian episodes on Sunday? Maybe get a SW themed CAKE for this as well?
I do have two Celeb cards all ready to post for the "holiday"...
How about my fellow Promoters? Got plans?

Probably not this year though I may redo my Boba Fett card for it.

I don't have any special plans for May 4th as I am working that day. However, I will watch the debut episode of the new The Bad Batch series when it gets released on May 4th on Disney +.

Thanks for the replies!
Anyway, to kick off the weekend before Star Wars Day, how about we learn what the original plans were for the sequel trilogy? If you haven't seen it yet, here is the lowdown, plus a look into the George Lucas museum that I hadn't heard of before (oh. And SPOILERS, duh!) --
More to come!

One of the local donut stores announced they will be offering these special donuts on Star Wars Day:
Yoda – dipped in green icing and decorated as the legendary Jedi Master.
Chewbacca – A raised bar with chocolate frosting and decorated to resemble the beloved Wookiee.
Galaxy – A bright blue and purple marbleized galaxy frosted on a raised ring doughnut.
Princess Leia – A white-frosted shell topped with Princess Leia face decoration and two Oreos to resemble her famous hair buns

More vids for the second part of the weekend to continue the Star Wars celebration, yay!
First up, I had always thought DAVID PROWSE (the man in the Darth Vader suit) was bitter about Star Wars as a whole, but I found a video of him in which he states otherwise. How about this?
And the same for Alec Guinness. I always thought he really didn't like Star Wars at all! So here in this vid, he talks about how he felt the script was a real "page-turner", etc:
More good Star Wars stuff tomorrow!
Later!

I met David Prowse back in 21016 at Toycon at the Orleans. I remember him telling me that Empire Strikes back was his favorite of the original triology.  |
