Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays, RFRN fans!! Republic Forces Radio Network officially ends its Droids retrospective series with a review of the Star Wars Holiday Special animated short, “A Faithful Wookiee.” This special features the world debut of bounty hunter and “friend”, Boba Fett. Although it came out 7 years prior to the Droids series, it was produced by Nelvana–the same studio that did the Droids and Ewoks animated series. Also, you might just find those character designs of R2-D2, C-3PO, Boba Fett, and the Stormtroopers a bit familiar if you’ve been following the Droids coverage. Is Fett here to help Luke, Han, and Chewie or is he Darth Vader’s right-hand man?

Listen and find out as Jerry, Dan, Jen, Berent, and Nathan discuss “A Faithful Wookiee”. You’ll find it’s minute-for-minute the most comprehensive review RFRN has ever done. There are 7 minutes of review per 1 minute of cartoon content! You can’t beat that!!!

As we move into the final week before Christmas it’s catch-up time on Star Wars Action News as Marjorie and Arnie run down the latest half-off Star Wars toy sales for the last minute Christmas shopper (or bargain collector), and they review a number of new items including the lightsaber pens from Starwarsshop.com, new Lego pens appearing in the toy aisle of Toys R Us, and Gentle Giant’s 2-1B mini-bust.

Plus the reviews continue as they look at StarWarsShop’s wampa rug (and you should see the pictures of Jar Jar chilling on the rug!), Hasbro’s remote control Hailfire Droid, and even a review of Robot Chicken’s latest Star Wars special!

All this, plus your voicemails and more, on this week’s Star Wars Action News podcast!

In less than two weeks the biggest shopping day in America is upon us, and the stores are getting ready. And in this economy, many stores aren’t even waiting until Black Friday to offer deep discounts on the hot holiday items of the year.
