We’ve made it to Episode 7. Not to be confused with Episode VII. The droids continue their wacky adventures with Jann and Jess against “The Pirates of Tarnoonga.” I once spent a weekend in Tarnoonga. Or maybe it was Raleigh. I get those two confused.

Official statement from Hasbro:

Lots of voices are weighing in on ways for Hasbro to incentivise more backers for the Sail Barge, and they’re all good. Our friends at Jedi Temple Archives offered this idea, which we also like. Now it’s our turn to weigh in on a way for Hasbro to generate even more buzz around this sensational vehicle, and we think (in our wholly uninformed position) that it’s eminently doable. Well informed vintage Kenner collectors already know exactly what we’re talking about from the preview image.
This is big news. The Official Site is reporting that the HasLab Vintage Collection Sail Barge campaign is now open to Canada. Attn Canada: I will wear a Ken Dryden throwback jersey for a week if you make this happen (disclaimer: offer to wear a Ken Dryden throwback jersey is not valid).
