I may be using the word “custom” a little fast and loose here but since StarWars.com released the concept art from “Idiot’s Array”, I felt the need to use the assets to slap together a printable version of the crate used to transport Lando’s puffer pig. Can you tell things are slow right now??? Click the image above to print your own to display with your Star Wars Rebels figures. They are toys after all, right? Hasbro, if you make a Rebels Lando figure, can you include a puffer pig, too?

Star Wars: A New Hope was the first mainstream movie to be dubbed into the Navajo language, and fans at Celebration can see a behind-the-scenes documentary on how that came to be, created especially for the event.
Following the never-before-seen documentary footage, and a Q&A session with key players from the Navajo Nation and the film industry, Star Wars: A New Hope will be screened in the Navajo dub – a treat for Star Wars movie fans, and fans of languages, and of course for anyone who speaks Navajo!
