As many of you probably know (and if you don’t, check out our latest episode), that Samuel L. Jackson himself is the REASON that Mace Windu has a purple lightsaber. It was clearly established in the words of George Lucas that, “Bad guys are red, good guys are blue and green.” So what if Mace had a Green or a Blue? Swipe to find out… and let us know if you think either of those colours work 💜💚💙

In this weeks episode we're delving into the fascinating realm of Forcesabers. Along the way we discover an intriguing theory of the Sith's possible connection to the enigmatic moon known as "Bogan." Shoutout to our Aussie fans 🇦🇺

Now although mostly Legends now, Forcesabers, a unique variation of the traditional lightsaber, are rumored to be deeply rooted in the dark side of the Force. These formidable weapons harness both the destructive power of the dark side and the formidable elegance of lightsabers. Let's unravel the mysterious theory surrounding their origins.

Attention, attention! The latest episode of our podcast is out and it's all about the real-life origins of some of our favorite Star Wars characters and concepts. That's right, we're talking about the true stories behind Ewoks, Jedi, The Force, and Wookiees!

Who knew that the Ewoks were actually inspired by George Lucas' pet dog, or that the Jedi were based on ancient samurai warriors? And as for The Force, well, let's just say that it might have a little something to do with George's love of transcendental meditation.

So if you want to know the juicy details behind these iconic characters and concepts, be sure to tune in to our latest episode (available in bio). And who knows, maybe you'll even learn something that will help you become a Jedi Master in your own right. May the force be with you!

In 1996, Mark Rehkopf, entered as part of the Design An Alien contest in Star Wars Galaxy Magazine 7 and WON. The design in question is the Ubese Thorn-Back War Dragons which not only look incredibly fierce, but they were also ridden by Sith warriors wielding three-sided lightsabers.

An interesting thing to not is that at the time, Leland Chee, a Lucasfilm Ltd. Continuity editor stated that "Design an Alien" materials were canon.

According to the creator of this artwork, these dragon riders would soar throughout the Clone Wars and were traded with by a mystery Nomad-Damon.

In PB’s search for cool lightsaber designs, he came across this and together we wanted to showcase this cool design which would probably be otherwise lost. You can check out the full episode of the podcast via link in our bio.

The galaxy is full of all kinds of droids - some good, some not so much. But when it comes to the bounty hunter world, two particular models stand out: IG-11 and IG-88. Which we both thought were the same droid.

While they may share a similar design, there are some unique differences between these two droids. IG-11 was programmed with a strict adherence to the Bounty Hunter's Creed, while IG-88 had a much more independent streak.

The concept artwork is by none other than Ralph McQuarrie, quite a different look to what we ended up with. In the episode, we talk about some unique design differences between the two droids.

Which droid do you prefer? Let us know in the comments below!

And don’t get us started on the CGI replacement that did for Jabba!!

And most of the CGI still holds up today! We do love the practical effects and suits, but we didn't know this was a fact.

So I guess George isn't a fan of lava? Makes sense for Vader to have a fortress and to reside here, as once he turns to the dark side, he's living in his own living hell.

When you're spending full days in a suit that's for a creature that is super hairy, no doubt it gets a bit hot. We can only imagine what Peter Mayhew had to deal with before they invented this!

George Lucas wanted to represent the people of Vietnam (Ewoks) and Rebel Alliance fighting back against a powerful dictatorship (The US) and be successful. In a time of depression, George Lucas wanted to provide hope to the younger generations of the time.
