So Gizmodo claims, anyway. We’re not Rebelscum, so I have no idea. Nice eye candy, anyway.
Wait a minute… A LEGO visual dictionary?
I hate to use the term ‘scrapping the bottom of the barrel,’ but LEGO Star Wars: The Visual Dictionary? DK, I’m sure you can come up with something better than that. (via)
Toy Fair ’09 coverage continues!
Both StarWars.com and Rebelscum are covering the reveals heavily… I can’t even begin to catch up at this point! Above, a Dagobah Frog Habitat from Uncle Milton, another ‘Seriously?’ item from the brains behind the Force Trainer.
UPDATE: More Force Trainer action at Gizmodo.

In other Lego news (well, sort of,) GalacticBinder has twenty reasons to love Lego Star Wars.
The fandom minute: Lightsaber restrictions, 501st helmet project, Falcon song, LEGO nativity
Facepalm du jour: Woolworths in the U.K. is requiring that people must be 18 or old to purchase a cheap plastic lightsaber, because it might be mistake for a gun. Meanwhile, I bet anyone can go into the hardware section and buy a working flashlight fully capable of braining a full-grown man.
- Incoming: The 501st is sponsoring the TK Helmet Project. Dave Filoni, Daniel Logan, Dave Dorman, Lawrence Noble, Don Bies and the Robot Chicken folks are among the participants.
- Music: John Anealio wanted the Millennium Falcon for Christmas, and thirty years later writes a song about it.
- Crafts: Check out the Star Wars LEGO nativity!
