A huge thank you for all for the feedback on our beta episode! We go live with our Episode 1: The 'Fandom' Menace

In this episode, we chew over and discuss the following:

• In the news, discuss our thoughts on the news of new Star Wars films and Steve Sansweet's announcement


• FlyGuy talked about the Star Wars Visions Book and showed the George Lucas and Tusken Raider/IG-88 image and cover


• DBSW talked about the same book and the awesome rancor painting (is it Darth Maul's lightsaber?!)


• FlyGuy attended the Sci Fi/Fantasy/Animation 'Armageddon Expo' and watched Star Wars actor Jay Laga'aia entertain the audience  


• We talked about the great Boba Fett iPad wallpaper on Dribble.com (send DBSW an invite!)

• We talked about the great post on DBSW for 'Darth Paper'


• DBSW met up with the gorgeous and talented Pacalin, who you should follow on tumblr


• We talk about the Gratuitous Picture of Yoda Wednesday (GPOYW and/or GPOYodaW)


• Check out the fantastic Millennium Falcon weathering that DBSW has been doing - inspired by Hangerbay94's work, you can find his new photonovel here


• We get geeky about new toys including the new Target Mini Muggs and Arc Troopers Battle pack and the video reviews we have


• We discuss new Clone Wars figures, the new Cad Bane, new Obi Wan, Clone Trooper Hevy and more...


• We both get excited about the R2-D2 vintage collection that appeared on ebay this week. Does size matter?


• A great tip to add toys, books anything Star Wars you find across the web is to use the Amazon universal wishlist browser bookmarklet. Try it out!
