Summary: It's that time of the year when we celebrate the things we are thankful for, and here on Planet 8, we are thankful for Star Wars! For many of us, Star Wars -the films, the animated shows, the toys, games, books, comics, and so on - have been a big part of our lives, for most of our lives. When the first film came out in 1977, we had never seen anything like it. We took a trip to that galaxy, far, far away, and nothing was ever the same. Join the Planet 8 crew, including newly-promoted Lieutenant Debby, as we reminisce about all of the things that have made Star Wars so enjoyable and so enduring. Seeing Star Wars as youngsters created a connection for us that has lasted to this day, and we still eagerly await every new film and TV show, as well as the various product spin offs. We'll discuss the films, but, being Planet 8, we'll stray off course and talk about our personal experiences with Star Wars, the toys and other goodies, the animated shows, and much more. It's a Star Wars lovefest, more over- stuffed than a Thanksgiving turkey! Please note, we recorded this episode a few weeks prior to the debut of The Mandalorian TV show on Disney Plus. But we'll be covering that very soon! Lt. Debby and Chief Engineer Bob and friends Recon Officer Karen, unidentified angry man, and Commander LarryFor our Sensor Sweep, Commander Larry shares a new goodie he purchased, the Hot Toys Nano-Gauntlet 1/4 scale figure. This is a mini-version of the Infinity Gauntlet that Tony Stark wears at the end of Avengers Endgame. It lights up and everything! You can find it on the Sideshow site here.
