These beautiful minimal and retro Star Wars posters from POTAPOTA are perfect, conveying so much with so little. Kind of like Yoda actually. This unique poster series was designed with the best quotes from the movies and most memorable parts of the films and there are several versions to choose from. All look amazing. Several of these would look so good on my office walls… I think I have to get some for myself. So long money.
Star Wars would have still been good if the music had been different, but it is Oscar-winning composer John Williams score that makes them legendary. Well now you can get the Star Wars soundtracks on Vinyl. Again. The Star Wars The Ultimate Vinyl Collection Original Soundtrack includes all six films, restored from their original masters and boasting the classic and original artwork.
The six individual albums come in gatefold jackets on 180-gram vinyl and include a digital download card for one complete box set of all six soundtracks. I fell in love with these soundtracks as a kid and it was really something magical to be able to listen to the music and re-live scenes from the movie in my head. Or maybe pretend I was being trained by Yoda in the swamp. Or outrunning TIE-Fighters. Great stuff.
Also available on Amazon.

“Utinni!” Jawas are by far the coolest residents of Tatooine. They search the deserts of Tatooine for discarded droids and scrap machinery to repair and resell. Now you can own the coolest Jawa figures ever produced. The Sideshow Collectibles Jawa Sixth Scale Set includes two fully articulated individuals, each packed with personality and the ability to pose in an endless variety of positions for display.
They feature bright LED-illuminated yellow eyes and they come with an impressive array of weapons and accessories, including a space thermos, welder, droid caller, magnetic restraining bolt, a blaster pistol which fits neatly in a belt holster, and a droid-stunning Ion Blaster. I love these guys and Sideshow has outdone themselves with this set.

“V” The Original Mini-Series and the mini-series that followed are among my favorite sci-fi shows of all time. Check out this image of series creator Kenneth Johnson in the ship graveyard at Universal. It was taken after the original filming at some point. These ships were simple, yet awesome. I really wish I had some as toys or replicas.
Other images in this set include the shuttle being moved by crane. Yep, these ships actually existed as full sized props. It’s amazing they didn’t break the thing moving it around. I just love these ships. They are so…lizard people!

Most of us know that Frank Oz, the voice of Yoda, also brought Muppets like Fozzie and Miss Piggy to life. But did you know that the Muppets once visited the set of The Empire Strikes Back? We have the pictures to prove it.
These images were recently uploaded to the internet via Imgur and it’s like being in the 1980s all over again. There are several cool shots showing Kermit and Miss Piggy on the Dagobah set with the crew. And yes that includes Mark Hamill. If these pictures don’t make you smile, you are dead inside. Or a Sith.
If you are a fan of the Star Wars prequels, check out these fascinating and not-so-often-seen behind the scenes photos. Even if you hate the prequels, you can’t help but respect all of the hard work that went on behind the scenes of this final installment.
Yes it had a ton of CGI, but this movie also had some massive sets and a ton of prop work and models as can be seen in some of the images below.
See the full gallery here, along with some amazing concept art.
