McFett is sold out, everything else is there.

Happy birthday!

So I have an hour yto kill today and check out a Wal-Mart in the area (that's only been open for 2 months) and all I find is stuff from the HOTH AND CORUSCANT WAVES. How the **** did those get here? However, said WM also had the new Titaniums, Sith Infiltrator, and the V-Wing (which I stashed for purchase later).

It was a relief to not see any Jerjerrods or Ewok Throne 3POs but crimany, I haven't seen new 30AC stuff in months. Getting VERY sick of TSC...

1. SA Obi-Wan Kenobi
2. SA Naboo Soldier
3. SA Captain Panaka
4. SA Jar Jar Binks
5. Queen Amidala (Pre-Senate)
6. Queen Amidala (Post-Senate)
7. Kitster/Wald 2 pack
8. SA Gungan Soldier
9. SA Padme Amidala (Battle of Theed)
10. SA Battle Droid/ROTS Battle Droid made with good plastic

Yeah, number 10 is rumored, but what we're getting is crap. I want a Battle Droid that can hold a blaster with both hands AND be able to stand on its own.

To the citizens of Trideeno, it is an ordinary day. There were rumors that some Star Destroyers were spotted in the area but the people are not scared.




But that all changes when they see a Trideeno Starfighter, with a man hanging onto the back, zooming around the city at high speeds.




The pilot soon tires of the city and tries to eliminate the threat by flying near cliffs and lakes in the countryside.




This plan has little success, as the enemy, Luke Skywalker, continues to hold on. The pilot decides that the only way to get rid of Luke is to fly into space.




As the Trideeno Starfighter climbs in altitude, Luke is able to get a grip on the ship with his foot.




With more support, Luke is able to use his lightsaber to open the hatch of the starfighter. The ship's altitude falls rapidly as the pressure in the cockpit drops.




The pilot, not wearing his safety belt, is sucked from the cockpit as Luke is finally able to retract his lightsaber.




Luke gets into the cockpit and attempts to regain control of the fighter.




Luke gets the fighter's status back to normal just before he crashes into a cliff. He turns the fighter around and heads back toward the city.




Back at the Trideeno capitol building, the fight has moved to a skybridge linking Capitol Hill with the landing bay. Security has locked the door to the hangar, trapping Leia, Lando, and Chewie.




A blaster shot hits Leia's lightsaber hilt, knocking it from her hand. The New Republic forces are defenseless.




TRIDIA FORGS: Drop your weapons!
STOMAH TALOS: Surrender and we may go easy on you.
BARON SAMEDI: I won't be going easy on the Jedi. prepare to suffer a fate worse than death!




Suddenly an explosion knocks out part of the wall, causing a few Stormtroopers and Trideeno Senator Tridia Forgs to fall to their deaths.
TALOS: TRIDIA! NOOO!




A Trideeno Starfighter lands on the bridge. The confused Remnant leaders flee before any more damage is caused.




The starfighter's hatch opens and Luke Skywalker pops out.
LEIA: Luke! You're alright!
LUKE: Leia, help me cut open a door into the hangar.




LANDO: What about Han and Elick? Where are they?
CHEWIE: Rerawwwww!
LUKE: They're outside Dralco's mansion, I can feel it. Come on, we don't have much time!




The New Republic leaders run to the Falcon...




... but are suddenly cut off by Sivart Dralco who jumps in front of the entry ramp.




SIVART: This is where your journey ends, Jedi.
LUKE: Sivart, not you too! How could you betray us like this?




SIVART: The only betrayal was by Darth Vader. If it weren’t for him, you and your Rebellion would have been slaughtered at Endor. Now it looks like I’ll have to finish the Emperor’s job myself.




Sivart ignites two lightsabers, prompting Luke and Leia to ignite their own.




A duel begins as Lando and Chewie sneak inside the Falcon.




The battle is fast and furious, with Sivart gaining the upper hand on several occasions.




The duel continues as Lando and Chewie start up the Falcon.




Sivart forces Luke to the ground as Leia charges at him.




As Leia fights with Sivart, Luke gets up...




... and Force Pushes Sivart to the ground. Luke and Leia use this as an opportunity to escape.




Luke and Leia quickly board the Falcon as Sivart gets up. He has no choice but to look on as the Falcon flies away.




Inside the lounge, Luke and Leia console each other.
LUKE: I can’t believe the Dralcos are running the Remnant. It was right under our noses the whole time. How could we have not seen it?




LEIA: The Sith mask themselves well. I sensed something the moment we got here, but I didn’t know what. But we need to focus on getting Han back.




LANDO: We have a lock on Han’s location. They’re inside an old Trade Federation MTT.




The Falcon zooms in on the MTT, which is accompanied by a Juggernaut.




CHEWIE: Raaaaar!
LANDO: Juggernauts? I didn’t think they still made those.




The Juggernaut fires a barrage of missiles and laser fire at the Falcon. Lando and Chewie do their best to avoid the fire, but are hit one too many times.
LANDO: We’re taking too much damage. We have to retreat!




The Falcon pulls up and begins to leave the planet. Suddenly, a blue shield slowly begins surrounding the atmosphere.
CHEWIE: Rerooor!




LANDO: I see it! They’re activating the planetary shield! Put all power toward the thrusters!
The Falcon speeds up and, in a tense moment, barely escapes through a small hole in the shield, which closes just after the Falcon exits.




LANDO: That was too close. Now we have to avoid the Imperial fleet.
The Falcon is able to avoid a few Star Destroyers and enters hyperspace.




Inside the MTT, Robilus Dralco decides to check on his prisoners.




HAN: So, Dralco, you’re the Sith lord. I bet you feel like a real winner, capturing a smuggler, some droids, and an old man.
ELICK: Old?




ROBILUS: Quiet. I captured you for a reason. You see, I’ve put the planetary shield up. Nothing can enter or exit Trideeno without being destroyed. The shield has to shut down to regenerate once every seventy-two hours. That is likely when the Republic will bring their entire fleet to invade, and Skywalker will more than likely try to rescue you. Little do they know that we have the full Remnant fleet surrounding the planet, mobilized and ready for any attack. And with all the firepower we have on the surface, the Republic troops stand no chance.




ELICK: You, sir, are nothing but a coward!




ROBILUS: Silence! I should mention that you all serve a bigger purpose than bait. I just hope you have the right answers to my questions.




Dralco walks away leaving Han and Elick both confused and angered. C-3PO looks at R2-D2.
THREEPIO: Artoo, do you remember the incident on Jabba’s Sail Barge?
ARTOO: Bweep bwoo bwap!




THREEPIO: I’m afraid this will be worse.
R2 chirps a nervous whistle as the Remnant convoy drive towards a secluded area.

Ok, the Q-Vos/Villie set looks A LOT better than the proto pics made it look. Bummer about the knees but that can be easily fixed.

Has anyone with the ARC/Kenobi set tried switching the ARC's kama with a "normal" kama from the ROTS Clone Commander?

I haven't read any of your chapters in a while but I caught up with everything and your PN is still just as good as it was when you started it. I LOVE the lighting you use, and you're able to mix in the real life environments extremely well. Your use of flashback scenes is fantastic!

I thought the ending was sudden, but perhaps that's because I was so into the story? Nevertheless, DI was a fantastic read and I'm looking forward to seeing what new projects you come up with (if you decide to do any).
