To encourage your young or old one's interest in Star Wars, why not browse through some of the available Star Wars fabric? My wife has recently been on a crafty kick, and she's gone to work on some theme elements. My "play" room now features a brand spanking new pair of Star Wars curtains (and a Pez blanket :) ). Thanks for stopping by our vintage Star Wars toys blog.

Luke Skywalker's transportation mode on planet Tatooine is the X-34 landspeeder, which hovers above the ground thanks to three repulsorlifts powered by turbines that keep the craft hovering and propel it forward. Most landspeeders, especially on a dry planet like Tatooine, have closed cockpits, but Luke's is open due to mechanical failure.
