Many people cited the Star Wars Action News/Jedi Temple Archives party as a high point of Star Wars Celebration 4. There, members from both sites got to meet people they previously only knew by forum handle, and make friends that they would spend the rest of the convention with. Now, Star Wars Action News and Yakface.com are teaming up to make the best party at C4 even better for C5! On Thursday, August 12th, the Star Wars Action News/Yakface party will be held at the Embassy International in Orlando. There will be music and prizes, as well as an exclusive shirt you will never be able to get anywhere else *free* with your admission! Tickets are on sale now at http://www.swactionnews.com/articles/C5/c5party.htm And on this week's episode of Star Wars Action News, Arnie and Marjorie are joined by Jayson from Yakface to talk about the party, and then Arnie and Marjorie are joined by Star Wars Topps Sketch Card artist Kevin Graham, who is doing the art for the Star Wars Action News/Yakface party's exclusive T-Shirt!

And that's not the end of Star Wars Action News Celebration news! Listen to this week's podcast to find out which Collector Panel to attend to see Marjorie as one of the hosts!

Also this week on the podcast, Arnie and Marjorie play your voicemails, including a detailed review from a listener of collectibles from Star Wars Weekends at Disney, and the Gingerprince reports in from the latest Collectormania in the UK.

All this and more on this week's Star Wars Action News podcast!

1) As a collector it has been frustrating to see the endless cases of older figures and repacks figures dominating the new case mixes shipping to all the local stores since fall of 2009. To me, it would make more sense to have more duplicates of more current stock hitting the pegs. In regards to the Toys R Us Legacy EU and new 2010 Clone Wars figures, why are they being packed only one per case?

2) The AT-TE was one of the most exciting vehicles you have put out to date (though I'm hoping the AT-AT bests it). With all the new paint schemes of AT-TEs seen in the Clone Wars series, any chance of this getting a rerelease?
