Geeking Out Over the Star Wars Retro Action Figure Set

I remember a long time ago in a galaxy not so far, far away when the Star Wars action figures were first introduced back in the late 1970’s.  In the stores, it created a mob of people who pushed, shoved and trampled anyone who got in their way from owning their first piece of one of the very first blockbuster films of all time.   I remember this because as a little kid, I was the one being pushed, shoved, and trampled by the adults around me in order to obtain this Star Wars gold.  Lucky for me, when the crowd disbursed, the store brought out a whole bin-full of these action figures so I didn’t miss out on buying any of them that day.  I just got a little bruised in the process.

A Real Millennium Falcon (Drone)

Millennium Falcon Quadcopter Drove NightA very clever “Star Wars” fan has turned his Quadcopter Drone into a a ship that  made the Kessel Run in less than twelve parsecs.  And we all know that ship is the Millennium Falcon.  One of these days I would love to get a Quadcopter, but after seeing this, I don’t think any regular Quadcopter would do now.
