I laughed out loud at the sight of Bobby Moynihan as Princess Leia, and despite this being a goof, I still got goose bumps at the actual footage of the Falcon. Click through for the clip.

It’s the internet and it’s our job to obsess over teaser trailers so without further delay, here are twelve screen grabs of the just released Episode VII teaser trailer.
The teaser trailer for The Force Awakens is ONLINE! One word: goosebumps. Hit the read more for the trailer.
I’ve heard tell that the Walgreens exclusive Prototype Boba Fett was becoming easier to find. When it was first hitting, I was checking several stores daily and only spotted it once. During my morning commute I popped into Walgreens, and low and behold four Fetts were just sitting there. Still there as far as I know. Holden, MA if anyone in the area is interested.

Forum moderator Mazlow alerted us the an article on the Regal Cinemas site indicating the teaser trailer for Star Wars, The Force Awakens will debut at select theaters this weekend. Click the link for locations.

Just a friendly reminder for those of you in the New England area that the New England Super Megafest Comic Con is this weekend November 22nd and 23rd. There are quite a few Star Wars related guests and many other pop culture celebrities attending. If you plan on taking in this even, I highly suggest buying tickets in advance. The day of event ticket line is traditionally over an hour wait. Click through to the Super Megafest web site for the details. Check back on Saturday for our coverage of the event.
Please note that the title is a question mark. I don’t want to over represent the status of my local stores as an indictment of the line as a whole. Only Toys R Us stores in my area are taking serious 6” Black Series deluxe stock and at both stores, the boxes are starting to pile up.
