Lego Star Wars: "Screw the Force!"
Posted: Monday April 4th, 2005

There have been some issues with shipping and release dates; so, I haven't been able to get my hands on Lego Star Wars yet. **sighs**
But, I got to thinking about it, and I figured that, in the world of Lego Star Wars, victory was a credit card purchase away. You know... just hop on the Internet, acquire yourself a few more AT-ATs, a Star Destroyer or three, a couple of handy dandy Death Stars, and proceed to kicking the crap out of some Rebel scum!

Back Story:
When I went to buy Lego Star Wars from Rhino, we got to talking about one of the Lego Technic Destroyer Droids I'd assembled. The next evening I was on a battery run to Target, and stopped by the Lego section of the Toy department, and there before me glowing and surrounded by the sound of angels singing was a 900 piece Lego Millennium Falcon. After about 30 minutes of debate I left the store without it.
Well, of course I told my girlfriend about it. And, being the deliciously evil wench she is... she bought it for me. So... I spent from 9:45 pm to about 3 am putting it together THEN I started the comic. I'm compulsive; I can't help it. It's the same reason I love Perfect Grade Gundams.
So, between not getting the game and putting together the Lego Falcon, that's where the idea for today's comic came from.
