Celebration VI Diorama Workshop Action Figure Fund

The Star Wars Diorama Workshop, a fixture at Star Wars Celebration events since 2002, is celebrating its tenth anniversary by producing the largest ever diorama display featuring a Return to Tatooine. But rather than just building a Mos Eisley diorama like a decade ago, this year’s version will feature the entire planet spread out over 400 linear feet of tables, and covering both the original and prequel trilogies.

New CVI Autographing Guests Announced

Adding to the already impressive guest list, StarWarsCelebration.com announces that 6 more signers have committed to the event. They are: Amy Allen (Aayla Secura), Kenny Baker (R2-D2), Garrick Hagon (Biggs Darklighter), Christopher Malcolm (Zev Senesca), Jake Lloyd (Anakin Skywalker) and Bonnie Piesse (Beru Whitesun/Lars)

Head on over to the official CVI site to check the list so far!

And as long as you are attending CVI, why not party like it’s 1983 and get your tickets for the Yakface/Star Wars Action News Fan Party?

Marjorie and Arnie are back in the Sithsonian this week with another Star Wars Action News podcast, and they bring tidings from the Pacific Northwest…tidings, and toys that is! Thanks to the Star Wars collectors of SARLACC a number of unique and rare Star Wars items were seen, from Star Wars pinball machines to arcade games, bootleg items, and more, including a tour of Gus Lopez’s impressive array of Star Wars props and prototypes. On this week’s podcast they run down what store no Star Wars fan in the Pacific Northwest should miss!

And from the Pacific Northwest to the Atlantic Southeast, the new Disney World Build-A-Droid exclusives have been the buzz of many collectors since debuting during the first Star Wars Weekend of 2012. Dan Curto has gotten the first batch and joins us to provide a hands-on review in shared coverage of the event!

Finally, on the show you will find details about the Yakface/Star Wars Action News party at Star Wars Celebration VI in Orlando! The third such party at Celebration is a great way to meet other fans and friends to connect with throughout the entire celebration, and Star Wars Action News and Yakface are happy to once again be hosting the event!

Update: Fett Looking OT for Clone Wars?

An interesting image showed up on StarWars.com today of what looks to be an animated version of the Classic Boba Fett. It looks like Boba’s transformation to the iconic armor will turn up in the Clone Wars for season 5! Head on over for a closer look and be sure to check out their new Celebration VI announcements.

UPDATE: It appears that the cat was let out of the bag a bit prematurely as the Official Site has removed the image an replaced the animated version with one from The Empire Strikes Back. Thanks to our friends at JediNews for the tip.
