Be it officially, or unofficially (where most of the information is coming from, no less), there hasn't been any mention of Sith Lords... I guess they're saving that?

You know, I'd be kind of happy if we made it through this new trilogy without any mention of the Sith. The introduction of an entirely new threat could open up some fantastic opportunities, and I worry that the Sith returning so quickly would take some of the poignancy out of the sacrifice that Vader made.

I'd like that, too... given what we know, so far, it seems Kylo Ren is a bit of a poseur (even that shot of him using the Force, from the second teaser, isn't what it seems).

Saying that, I've also heard that the First Order doesn't play a that big of a part in The Force Awakens, as there are bigger forces at play.

We'll see, I guess?

I didn't actually stop to think that there might be a chance of seeing these posters in the wild, but when we went to the movies last night, there it was, complete with the day-early NZ release date...

It's happening!

On that note, I'm keen to go play a game or two in the Battle Pod, which is in that complex... who's with me?

I've got a couple of star wars fan pages that I help admin on and had these images sitting in the inbox. The first 2 appear to be screen shots.

I still think fighter pilots should be fit to fly!

C'mon, that's why Porkins ate it, right?

No pun intended...

Boxed versions of the 6" Black Series TFA stormtrooper figure are starting to circulate as SDCC approaches - the side panel gives a little snippet of interesting information - http://www.starwarsunderworld.com/2015/ ... at-on.html
"The Stormtroopers legions were scattered in the aftermath of the Empire's fall. Now, the rise of the First Order ushers in the next chapter in the Stormtrooper's legacy as a new era of ruthless brutality begins."
