Checklist: Fad Wars Posted By Justin on April 2, 2009
Bonnie Burton, Pete Vilmur, and Pablo Hidalgo have put together a throwback look at some of the more "interesting" entries in the Star Wars line of merchandise from days long gone.
See the excerpt below:
"While most of us tend to think of the Star Wars saga as timeless, classic, and unyielding to the frivolous whims of pop culture, there have actually been a few notable infractions made on the merchandising front in years past: Remember the van craze of the '70s? Yeah, we've got those. How about those latch-hook rugs from the '80s? Yep, those too. And the '90s pogs? Uh-huh.
To that end, we've scoured the collection of Steve Sansweet to come up with a handful of items that seem to be firmly fixed in the '70s, '80s or '90s, hopelessly trapped by the fads of the era."

Rebelscum Breast Cancer Awareness Charity Patch Posted By Philip on November 25, 2014: Thanks to everybody that ordered patches. I sent a check for $1,600.00 to the National Breast Cancer Foundation on Monday. While it's not as much as I hoped for, it's still very much appreciated. They will remain for sale in the store for anybody that still wishes to purchase them. Details after the jump.
