How About Black AND White Friday?<\/b><\/span>

\nSideshow Collectibles is having a Black AND White Friday. What does that mean to you? They are launching a bunch of new 12″ Figures based on early Black and White horror movies, along with something VERY unique. They are selling an exact replica of the mechanical skeleton used in the original King Kong film. This was used to do the stop motion for the huge ape in the movie. Ok, so how does this relate to Star Wars? How do you think the techniques for the AT-ATs and Tauntauns in ESB came about? Kong wasn’t the FIRST movie to use these techniques, but it was the biggest. Its a VERY cool piece of movie history, if anything, click through the banner above just to read about it.<\/span><\/p>\n

Here’s what Arnie & Marjorie have to say about this week’s episode, do check them out won’t you?…<\/p>\n

” Why do they have Black Friday any more? If your area was ANYTHING like ours the stores are already crowded, and people are already driving crazy. Clerks are overworked and out of patience. Me, I’m ready to say “forget it all” and just stay home until New Years.<\/p>\n

But what about Christmas shopping?<\/p>\n

Well, Star Wars Action News is here to help you find all the gifts you can buy for the Star Wars fan in your life and you never have to leave the comfort of your computer room! Also, this is the perfect show to let your significant other listen to as they may get some ideas of gifts for you! A very sneaky way to implant ideas in their heads.<\/p>\n

In addition we talk about store displays, do we like them and how can you get them? Tune in to find out.<\/p>\n

Our web site has been updated, and we invite you all to check it out, leave us voice mail, or sign our Frapper map. All the information can be found at\u00a0reviewstarwars.com.<\/a><\/p>\n

Great Deal on Firefly Series<\/b><\/span>

Ok, this is a little off topic, but let’s face it….Serenity was a great SCI-FI movie. One that any Star Wars fan would love. I picked this up a little while back and had to pay around $40 for it (haven’t had time to watch it yet, but I have it). Anyway, here’s a great deal on the TV series behind the Serenity movie. (Just click on this photo to purchase!)
