Hasbro Star Wars Fighter Pods
2012-05-20 02:55:00 Even though I only have daughters, that doesn’t mean that they don’t love Star Wars. I think it’s because Hubby is a big fan and is always watching re-runs of this classic movie series. So when they found out that we were receiving a Hasbro Star Wars Fighter Pods to review, they were very excited! ...

We were not expecting him!I swear safety is not a concern in the Galaxy. All these open conduits. hee!Quesh has such a unique look. Beautiful in it's putrid/poisonous stateGiant drill. Hubby felt it was important I take a pic of it. Like I need encouragement! HehLook at those mined cliffs!Bad things have happened here.Another drill, but a better view of the blade at work.Such funky plants here.Rather imposing, no?Remnants of a better time. Once I noticed one, I saw them everywhere. Sad really. Factory complex.Loved the Trandoshan and his outfit. (Trevor, just for you!)Look at that sky! It's almost on fire.Beasties of QueshCool texture for this elevator shaft.Giant, nasty bomb. Now to Imperial Tatooine:Krayt Dragon skull and bones.Nothing compared to its ancestors.Giant swamp rats.

Virtual Tourist - Star Wars The Old Republic and Minecraft 4/29/12
2012-04-29 15:56:00 Might be slim pickings this time around. Life got in the way last week.For SWTOR it's all Imperial Spy POV today so all you get is Tatooine shots.Some nasties that popped up out of the sands if you went to look at a dead body in the sand. (You can see him way in the back - the bait.) Escaped mutations perhaps?A sea of sand. And always the evil balloon! :PA Sand People oasis. One which they stole from the Empire. Guess who's here to take it back? :PSand People decor.Ah the double suns! You don't see them much. My new pet Taumtaum! A reward for the 1.2 update for players who've stuck out the game. He's so cute!Actual plant life on Tatooine!Now for Minecraft!Road creation through the jungle and also switching biomes.Yes, the crazy world took me from steamy jungle to winter wonderland.

Virtual Tourist 4/22/12 - Star Wars The Old Republic and Minecraft
2012-04-22 17:08:00 Let's see what trouble I've been in the gaming world this past week, shall we? :P (New planet so the bombardment will be heavy! Hee!)Last few pics of our Republic toons on Balmorra.Imperial base we ran across. Intimidating isn't it?Lots of bug flumes spewing green gas.Close up of a bug flume. Seems more than just bug town have been infected now.Finally tried to get some pics while in space. Not EASY! I am fighting for my life here. No time to do proper tourism. All space missions are timed. Fun too.Hubby's smuggler got sent back to Tatooine for a personal mission. I joined him when he ran into some issues.Loved how the sun was glinting off the sand crawler.Dune sea. We also went back to the spot with the datacron we'd found before but could not reach. Still didn't find a way (but wait till you get farther down! Bwahahahaha)Tried to take more space combat pics. Love the sun on this one.We then traveled on to Quesh. Found the officers companion interesting.Isn't that gorge...
Virtual Tourist - Star Wars The Old Republic and Minecraft 4/15/12
2012-04-15 16:55:00 Morning!Let's start with Balmorra and the Republic.Imperial stronghold area.Ah, this Sith I'd met before. She was the woman placed in charge of putting Balmorra under heel when I first came here as an Imperial Spy. I'd left things wrapped up quite nicely. Then here comes my Jedi Consular and she's brought the Sith woman to ruin. Was fun seeing the storylines connect like this.The Empire's super weapon. Makes most normal weaponry malfunction.Yes, I know, "what? another picture of Balmora's skies?" What can I say, it fascinates me.Some special Imperial flyers we got to destroy. Mid destruction pics. Heh heh.A really lovely set of waterfalls.YES! Another Holo/Datacron! Woot! View as we struggled for an hour to figure out how to get to it! (We went the hard way. Sigh. Quite easy once we really figured it out.Aha! Found you!X -771 Y 2050 Z139 Willpower +4 Booyah!Now for Tatooine with my spy.Some super cool lit mushrooms in a cave.Giant dead thing in the same cave. Poor th...
Freddie Mercury And Darth Vader [Photos]

The above photo came from Danish Principle, and it apparently occurred during the band’s 1980 tour. There wasn’t really any other explanation, so we Googled “Freddie Mercury Darth Vader.” It seems this was a semi-regular occurrence. There are a ...

Star Wars & Constant Force Springs: 'The Force' vs. Force
2012-04-05 20:20:00 I'm guessing just about everyone in our CR4 community has seen Star Wars. (We're talking the good ones here too. Not episodes 1-3, Capisce?) So, the most important moment of that film series is introduction of 'The Force" to the audience. It is the energy behind both the Jedi and Sith friary, and

I find them both terribly beautiful, each in their own way. No?On Balmorra with the Jedi.Super cool moving 3D hologram of a weapons driod. If you click for the bigger version you can see labels that pop up around it describing systems and whatnot. So cool!Some super deep elevator shafts at the Droid Factory.The huge assembly line was way cool.And what is a giant factory without giant energy couplings!We were down here twice, second time we found this! Bwahahahaha! (Dang it! I misplaced the coordinates! To get to it though, you have to go to the floor with the assembly line. This one is at the super deep elevator shaft. Behind one of the conveyor belts, there's a recess. You blink, you'll miss it, hubby did. Hee! Had to call him back over.)Floating dead guy. Heh heh.

They always have all these open energy beams. People could get ideas, don't you know.I don't remember if I'd run across this when I was here as a Jedi. But I loved how much this resembles the set ups in the red light districts in medieval Japan. Window shopping was quite the business.Yes, more lovely carpeting!A truly intimidating manufacturing area. Had been sealed for a 1,000 years but was going the whole time keeping anyone attempting to come in out. Yeah, some peeps didn't make it.This machine supposedly does EVERYTHING! The secret hidden by a SithA yes, the corpses of men and machines who'd previously tried to gain egress. Look at those guns! Carpet!Do love that neon! Hee!Vast!

2012-03-18 16:23:00 Let's see how much virtual trouble I got into this week. :PStill on Balmorra on the Republic side at Bug Town.The bugs main spawning spot. It was eerie, especially with the ooze coming down all the time.That's the queen guarding her kiddies. Back here, there's a datacron behind the dude below. We figured there must be a back way to get to it, but got distracted and forgot to look once we got outside before going off world. :(This dude looked super duper nasty, so we left him alone.My Imp spy on Nad Shaddaa. I found these posters rather interesting. One of the less reputable areas. Still a ton of neon.Camp site for a set of baddies inside. Loved the carpet!Some weird scientific thingie. The floating doohikies looked like giant hemoglobin.The Flame in all his alien glory.Couldn't remember ever taking a pic of these plants when I was here before, so here you go. :PI liked the overall feel of the set up here. They really came up with some truly interesting flooring.Some NP...

Waaaahhhh!)Cool wall from Drew made of sandstone and wooden steps. Now that steps will go in more than one direction, it really does open the possibilities!Cow from the mushroom biodome. Yes, those are mushrooms growing on its back. Creepy, no?Seems you can color a sheep's wool while it is on the sheep and the sheep will always grow that color wool from then on. The kids have all sorts of colors going on.And there are kittys now too! Seemingly will help keep creepers away. But they meow constantly. (Really weird having cats meowing at me from both the headset/speakers and around me in RL.I find this so weird when it happens. Orange tabby!My siamese! In the wild they look like cheetahs, but when you feed them fish and they love you, they randomly turn into a house cat variety. The ch...

Ummm, we'll let you know how that works out for us. Just in case Yoda is too busy fighting against the Sith, we made some back-up plans. We filled the cars with gas.
