Our friend Big Kev at BigKevsGeekStuff.com via The Force United has a ton of great images from the Jon Paul Kaiser opening which showcases some amazing 3D art. These "figures" look awfully similar to Mighty Muggs, but the artwork is spectacular! See some of your favorite Star Wars characters in this very special format!

We went to the Super Secret Star Wars Panel with Seth Green and as you've heard, a new Star Wars animated comedy show is coming; Star Wars: Detours. While it was indeed funny (and the panel was even better with Special Guest George Lucas showing up), we bet the show will end up being more controversial than anything else. See what you think!

Celebration VI is days away! Click through for a full reveal of our first two promo cards being offered this week at the show!

Do you have what it takes to make the Kessel Run in less than 12 parsecs? See if you can track down this unique patch set available exclusively at Celebration VI! Six members of the Washington DC Area Star Wars Collecting Club (DCSWCC) have joined forces to create the club's first ever puzzle patch set, which when assembled represents the shape of the Millennium Falcon. The set is approved by Lucasfilm as an exclusive for Celebration VI and is strictly limited to 300 sets. Click through for more!

Five Star Wars collecting clubs along with the Celebration VI Collecting Track will mark Celebration VI by giving away sections of an exclusive 6-piece patch set. When assembled, the pieces form a Clone Wars themed movie poster. The poster features characters from all six movies of the Star Wars saga along with characters from The Clone Wars TV series. The clubs participating in this project are the Washington DC Area Star Wars Collecting Club (DCSWCC), the Ohio Star Wars Collectors Club (OSWCC), the Pennsylvania Star Wars Collecting Society (PSWCS), the Star Wars Grand Florida Alliance (SWGFA), the Seattle Area Lucasfilm Artifact Collectors Club (SARLACC) and the Celebration VI Collecting Track.

At Star Wars Celebration some of the hottest, hard to find collectibles aren't on the show floor but in the suitcase of your fellow fan.  Hotel sales have long been an after-hours activity of the Star Wars collector looking to find that rare vintage figure, a unique international item, or other prize Star Wars items.

This year at Star Wars Celebration VI the hotel sales get opened up to you!  Friday night after the con, the Star Wars Collectors' Swap Meet will be held at 6:30 pm in the new Star Wars Collectors' Social Area.  Bring some collectibles that you are willing to part with and see items from other Star Wars collections!  Make a trade, work a deal, and find that item that has eluded you for so long!

The Star Wars Collectors' Social Area is in room W304.  Set-up begins at 5pm for those bringing collectibles to sell or trade.  Selling is limited to just a handful of items per person though (what you can carry), so collectors should plan accordingly.
