Spaceparents Masks

I super super super love these Hera and Kanan face masks.
The design is so well made.

As expected, Teepublic quality is SOO SUPERIOR compared to Redbubble, both in terms of printing quality and mask quality (fabric, band, and filter pocket is included!!)

I really did not need more geeky masks, but, how to resist?

Not today

Maybe one day I will stop.
[To feel like a 5-years-old].

But not today.


[PS. I know, the earrings are clementines, not pumpkins, but they are still orange, aren't they?]

There is coffee in that nebula

I'm waiting for this book for so many months!
I enjoyed Picard's autobiography, so I'm truly hyper for this book.
And Kathryn Janeway's stories are my most loved sci-fi novels.

"Star Trek: The Captain's Table, Fire ship" is one of my all-time favorites, and so you can understand the excitement when I found out that, possibly, more Captain Janeway tales (pre-Voyager) were about to be published.

I patiently waited, and here we are.
[Ps. Yes, it's coffee in the photo. Italian one has foam]

The lightsabers collector

When you wait for a book for many many months, you really cannot believe that is here.

It's everything I expected, and more, honestly.
Some lightsabers in this collection are wonderful.
I have also the previous small booklet on the same subject, but this new volume is in a galaxy far far away in terms of quality.
On Amazon, 27 dollars. The Lightsabers Collection.
If you are even slightly interested in lightsabers, *buy this book*.

I don't plan to post all the lightsabers here, because I think this is worth buying and discovering, without 'spoilers'. But allow me to share my favorite ones.
The Leia Organa saber is magnificent, and in the book, seems indeed more maroon/burgundy that light brass pink. It's gorgeous. Eventually, I have a preference for borderline evil characters, but the Sifo Dyas and Pong Krell hilts are outstanding.

Just keep sanding

Remember when I started to paint these lightsaber grooves in purple (twice), and it was kind of looking good, but the brass color was popping out?
Well.
I decided to remove all the extra layers first. So I got rid of the purple (again) and kept saaaaaaanding.

"When life gets you down, you know what you gotta do? Just keep sanding"

Buy it for the shoulders

The post today is about the coming soon Star Wars Rebels manga, written and illustrated by Akira Aoki, that will be available on November 17 for Yen Press (in the US).

As a manga lover, I consider amazing to have the chance to read our favorite stories and characters in this style.
Chibi Hera, sassy Kanan, or the whole crew having noodles and Ewok (???) meat, is a bonus.

I share here some of the images from the manga for consideration.
I edited the original text because really I don't want to spoil anything, but just spread the love around.
The paperback is in pre-order on Amazon.

Hello! I am Babu Frik!

I really cannot contain the excitement for this guy.
I am waiting for this Babu Frik plush since it was announced.
Pre-ordered as soon it was available.

It is an incredible doll. The packaging is super lovely, and his face is precious.
And, HE SPEAKS!!
Totally mind-blowing.
