In Germany this past weekend, one of the biggest Star Wars conventions
outside Celebration V was held, Jedi Con. Featuring the first chance for
anyone to buy Hasbro's new vintage style figures (the 4-LOM/Zuckuss reverse
figure pack) and a bevvy of Star Wars celebrities, it was a Star Wars party
not to be missed, and Star Wars Action News reporter Steve The Ginger Prince
was there! Listen to his coverage of this *fan*tastic time, including a
contest where you can win these vintage figures autographed by the actors
who played 4-LOM and Zuckuss!
Also this week, we continue our vintage coverage as Jerry begins a series
looking back at vintage toys from The Empire Strikes Back. For this first
installment Jerry looks at the Kenner Micro Collection of die-cast figures,
and talks about some unproduced prototypes.
Finally this week, Arnie and Marjorie review Sideshow's "The Circle is Now
Complete" Darth Vader vs Obi-Wan diorama and Uncle Milton's Darth Vader's
Robotic Arm educational toy. It's all this and more on this week's Star
Wars Action News!
