| June, Larry made the custom the one I showed is an actual released figure. I think if I remember right it came as separate pieces and you had to buy a bunch of different droids packs or some thing like that. Like a build a figure type of thing.

| I never customised any of my toys as a child ( I was always told to look after them) but I used to make my own Han Solo in Carbinite using a figure bubble and tin foil wrapped around the figure.
I've seen some great custom figures as an adult but I don't have the skills or the time to do it myself. |

| I didn't know the 1138 but I could remember the THX part. For some reason I thought the number was different. I never saw that film all the way through either.

True he did... but he didn't actually "act" as Darth Vader. He just created the sound effect. He also created the sound effect of the Light Sabers and all the rest of the sound effects in the series! |

| OK all you Star Wars Geeks.... are you ready for this week's question? Remember... no cheating by trying to look it up on Google! We all might be geeks but we're honest geeks! LOL Ok... this week is a bit tougher then usual. But if you know your Star Wars Trivia it should come as no problem! Question 6:
Who or what is Tantive IV? Bonus points if you can shed a little background on the subject! - Answer:
The Tantive IV (otherwise known as the Rebel Blockade Runner) was the first ship we saw in Star Wars IV: A New Hope. What many don't realize is that this ship was suppose to be Han Solo's Falcon, but Lucas took one look at it and said "Nope" and while sitting around a table at a local burger joint, someone had bitten into the burger and Lucas said "That's what I want" and the Millenium Falcon was born! Even McQuarrie made a concept painting of the Tantive IV in Docking Bay 96... here's the proof:

| Well it's that time of the week again for a new Star Wars Question of the week. Remember the rules... no cheating by using Google or doing extensive Wookiepedia searches. Try to answer this question based solely on your own knowledge of the Star Wars universe! The more you get right, the more Star Wars Geek Cred you can say you've got. First one to get the answer correct wins this week... so if you are all ready... here we go: Question 7:
How did Ben know the Jawa Sandcrawler was attcked by stormtroopers?- Answer:
The blaster marks were too precise for Sandpeople and the Bantha tracks were side by side. Sandpeople always ride single file to hide their numbers!
