Also, in the aftermath of the HFBS situation, I asked Kathy Kennedy if LFL had ever turned in a finished movie script for greenlight to Disney and had it rejected. She said no, this was a first.

For the record, I did not enjoy lying about the existence of THE HUNT FOR BEN SOLO, but it really did need to remain a secret…until now!

#botaday RM-12: Starscream. The classic rascally Decepticon gets a new sculpt as part of the Robotmasters line. Inspired heavily from his animation model. Still turns into an F-15 Eagle jet. He was available in Japan in 2004.

The beach that makes you non-canon.

#botaday RM-15: Star Saber. The lead hero from Transformers Victory gets the Robotmasters treatment. The robot mode is made up of a smaller robot, Saber (inset) who joins with the V-Star space cruiser to form his larger robot mode. This incarnation of Star Saber came out in Japan in 2004.

Suprise update to this blog post with the IBT-2921 Imperial Blockade Truck - thanks to @cobaltgreen1138.bsky.social for sharing over on X #Andor bloggathehutt.wordpress.com/2022/12/11/e...

any amount helps, no matter how small, even just a few dollars gets us closer to being able to justify it. just right now it would cost me most of my small disability pension each fortnight www.paypal.me/marcienolan please, any small amount of help would be appreciated to get closer

please, anything helps, helps get closer to this, we really need this bed, to reduce further decline for me, and to assist my carers the OT is keeping an eye on the reissue database but the last one she tried to secure through there disappeared on us so we couldn't get it

if people are able to help it would be much appreciated paypal.me/marcienolan is probably the best way to do it, if i have energy to do a proper writeup later ill do one for the gofundme

might need to ask for crowdfunding help again the OT from the hospital has been trying to arrange a hospital bed to be put in my room to make it easier for my carers to help me but the only one that fits has a $500 gap I would need to try and cover myself

HasLab Golden Girls House funding has unlocked the lanai level!

More scary stories from @cavan.bsky.social Tales from the Nightlands from @darkhorse.com The Nightlands are the twi’lek’s city of the dead. Ian McCaig helped design the Nightlander

The new Star wars comic book series Tales From the Nightlands features a new villain known as the Nightlander. The Nightlander was designed by legendary concept artist Ian McCaig! You can see his design for the Nightlander on the concept art variant cover for issue 1:

Not to step on or derail @cobaltgreen1138.bsky.social ... as an Imperial I'd like to Help Confirm that you are Correct. during the Making Of, the idea of having the PT Senate Guards in those scense , making those costumes was Not feasible. In their place we now see these.

Luke Hull's work on Andor as the Production Designer and Rebecca Alleway as set designer deserve all the kudos and awards. Phenomenal world building and culture building on Ghorman, Coruscant, Chandrilla, Yavin.

Really informative AND fun interview with Andor Set Decorator Rebecca Alleway. Take a listen to hear about just how much they built and designed. Wild. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/d...

The #StarWars Holiday Special has been long mocked, but Ralph McQuarrie took designing Kashyyyk for it totally seriously, with beautiful results. I love Chewie's art nouveau-looking house, and some of the appliances made it to the screen again in Andor. See more: alextoons.com/blog/starwar... #art

Really great article, informative and a great read. WEG mentioned!! www.theringer.com/2025/05/08/s...

Hello #India! This is my first visit to your beautiful country. I’m here visiting our team @ilmvfx.bsky.social Mumbai

I don’t understand why they’re so afraid to be honest about it. We all know!

Here's the literal opposite: garbage YouTube channels steal VFX reels from VFX shops and host them on their own channel create completely false thumbnail images. For example, Michael B. Jordan was NOT filmed against a bluescreen for this shot in "Sinners" - that's a completely fabricated image.

Folks reasonably assume footage from behind-the-scenes featurettes are "truth", but it is now standard practice for studios to alter footage from "making-of" videos. (These gray screens are actually blue screens on the set of "Superman" (2025).)

The Falcon in this shot is a Polaroid of the model rather than the model itself because there wasn't enough floor space in the studio to shoot it at that scale.

I’d just chalk it up to Reyna being good at disguise and spycraft. ☺️

This is an example of an out-of-blue Tony question: "could there be Russian icon painting in Star Wars?" Sure. And I sent past examples of hanging portraiture and art from The Clone Wars as precedents.

Canonical reference material, specifically DK's entries within the Visual Dictionary series and materials with derive from the former, such as the various new editions of the Character Encylopedia and other sources. Some may conflate. So, this is a very interesting question on intent.

I've been looking into Mon Mothma's costumes and I've been wondering, is the "Hanna Pendant" and "Chandrilan Medal of Freedom" meant to be different names for the same thing, or are they seperate things entirely? @infinata.bsky.social

Yeah, unfortunately IDW dropped the license right after and so the issue was never collected. :(

The first one was released as a short story/ebook. a.co/d/eKvK2qY The second one was a short backup comic in Star Wars Adventures 7 volume 2 (by IDW).

At the LucasFilm panel at SDCC, @msiglain.bsky.social showcased some of my art for the next #StarWars comic "Tales from the Nightlands" #2. Here's one of the pages! Luke Skywalker! Darth Vader! What more could I ask for? Written by for @darkhorse.com @spencercushing.bsky.social

For those who missed it (myself briefly included): Announced today. Coming out next year. Covers seasons 1-3. Working on it now. That’s all for now. 🙏

Second, I am VERY aware of ND-5's reputation as the Hot Droid. So I pitched a moment which was literally "ND-5 emerges from the water, like Daniel Craig in Casino Royale." This moment made it into the book. You're welcome. THE END and PREORDER NOW and MORE TO COME

Finally, I'll end on two little behind-the-scenes notes. This book takes place along the Corellian Trade Spine (where Barsha Corp was HQ'd). I needed a planet for a scene and picked Ghorman. Then I got a note: "don't use Ghorman, it's in Andor s2." As I watched I went "ohhhhhhh I see why" 😬

Galaxy of Heroes' realistic interpretation of Kix from SW Adventures by Thomas Guillory. Original design by Nick Brokenshire and Eric Jones. There's some minor inconsistencies in the belt and helmet between the key art and model, but overall this is a real nice interpretation.

Great to know whose behind all the great entries on there! Hope we see more obscure Original Trilogy and Prequel Trilogy characters making their way back on there some day like in the previous version of the Databank.

⬇️

Andor fans! The official site has updated histories in the Databank that cover Season 2. I became a bit obsessed with these updates adding in a few characters from Season 1 who didn't have histories (Kleya!) or didn't get one for Rogue One (Krennic!) www.starwars.com/series/andor

YEAHHHHHHHHH

Should have clarified @kelly-knox.com and @actuallybrandon.bsky.social killed it with the main Andor Season 2 Databank entries - main characters also get longer histories below those - that's what I was referring to!

I know there's stockholder reasons (blah) but announcing things in development is dumb. Wait till there's a start-of-production date. People don't know the difference (which, again, is sort *why* it happens).

Okay, your meditations have reached the Council. In the week leading up to the release of Season 3 Part 2 of NINJAGO: DRAGONS RISING (no, I don't know when that is), I will reveal each Source Dragon's associated Elemental Powers - at least the ones we are willing to divulge. One Source per day.

Normally, Story Group frowns on this kind of Easter Egg but they decided to let me get away with this one.
