  9. New Star Wars Exclusives Coming to Celebration 2019!Gentle Giant Ltd. Is traveling to Chicago, IL this month to attend Star Wars Celebration April 11-15, and they’re bringing two popular Clone Wars characters – Hera Syndulla and Darth Maul – as this year’s exclusive offerings! The captain and heart of the Ghost crew, Hera Syndulla was a gifted pilot and leader. While Hera was a strong commander – and especially adept at dogfighting with TIE fighters – she was also warm and nurturing. The Twi’lek could bring out the best in her team, which consisted of very different personalities, making them believe in themselves, each other, and their struggle against the Empire. Hera will be made available as a 1:6 scale resin bust, for a price of $120.00. A deadly, agile Sith Lord trained by the evil Darth Sidious, Darth Maul was a formidable warrior and scheming mastermind. He wielded an intimidating double-bladed lightsaber and fought with a menacing ferocity. Though he fell in battle against Obi-Wan Kenobi, the Zabrak from Dathomir would prove to be much harder to destroy than originally believed. Darth Maul will be depicted with his Force-constructed spider legs in a 1:8 scale Collector’s Gallery statue, available for $200.00. Star Wars Premier Guild members will be able to pre-order the busts beginning March 25. All others can come by the Diamond Select Toys/Gentle Giant Ltd. booth between April 11 and 15th! See you in Chicago!

FAR AWAY came from vintage railway and airline luggage tags. I began by dreaming up a few Star Wars themed luggage tags for passengers visiting planets like Endor or Hoth. That’s when I had the idea to illustrate the story of the original trilogy with Star Wars universe luggage tags. Starting with Tatooine and ending with a tag for the Death Star that is ripped in half to symbolize its destruction. Each vintage travel tag is illustrated with details and easter eggs connected to the Star Wars universe. This illustration makes for a unique tribute to the original Star Wars trilogy unlike any you’ve seen before. It is an honor and a privilege to have this illustration featured in the Star Wars Celebration art show”Brian Miller will once again be appearing at Star Wars Celebration with legendary sci-fi Artist Joe Corroney.

  17. Hi all! We are doing our second GI Joe day at our shop in Chicago. We're a small space but we have a lot planned including letting folks come and set up tables and sell/trade their own stuff outside of our shop if they like (obviously weather permitting). We do have a few tables ourselves but those are first-come/first-served. Also, Tim Seeley will be on hand signing so if you have some GI Joe books he worked on, bring those by to have him sign. Sketches will probably happen as long as there's not too big of a demand and he has time to do some. For more info check out our site here http://www.toydejour.com/events or the Facebook event page - https://www.facebook.com/events/211448479377282/ There will be food/drinks, trivia w/prizes, giveaways and a buncha other Joe fans to chat with!
