Star Wars Utapau Shadow Trooper from Sideshow Collectibles Review

  I was pretty surprised to see this when I happened to stop by the website of Sideshow Collectibles to check out some sale prices I got in an email. I like to think I am on top of stuff like this, but somehow, I must have missed the boat. The Utapau Shadow Trooper is one of the coolest looking Clone Troopers in the Republic, and Sideshow was definitely smart more...

Shocking Introduction: The First 30 Minutes Of Batman: Arkham City

I have never been the biggest of Batman fans for some reason. He's a cool character and all, but I think the fact that he is so popular has always kind of pushed me towards other comic book characters. I know that makes absolutely zero sense, but that is somehow the way it has all worked out. It's like I have purposely avoided him. That all changed two years ago when more...

Special Edition Star Wars R2-D2 XBox 360 Kinect Bundle Announced!

Somebody needs to buy me this. OK, fine, I'll buy it for myself. I've been looking for a reason to break down and buy a Kinect, and I can't think of a cooler way to jump all in on the Kinect bandwagon. This holiday season, from a galaxy far, far away, we're be getting a Star Wars themed XBox 360 with Kinect bundle. I'm not a huge R2-D2 fan, but seriously, how can you not more...

Gentle Giant Mini Bust Review: Darth Revan and Commander Bly

When Lucas Arts first announced The Force Unleashed II at this year’s E3 Convention, I was pretty shocked.

I just couldn’t wrap my head around it.Then the Star Wars dork in me kicked in and I reminded myself “self – more...
