| ASP-7 Labor Droid Unboxing |
I got this droid for my birthday in 2025.

| ASP-7 Labor Droid - Rear - Author's Collection |
I had never heard of this droid before, but it's made several appearances in Star Wars. When I saw it, I knew I had to have it. Find out more here.
The rear has a "cut out" spot to collect the card for this piece. They used to do this a long time ago, especially with G.I. Joe action figures. The back states (verbatim) of the droid:
Height: 1.6 Meters
Status: Household/Business Laborer
Classification: Industrial Automaton ASP-Droid
Affiliation: Varies Based On Owner
Rogue One Scenes
The video focuses primarily on the attack led by Admiral Raddus. It'll always be a good scene. It's hard to believe that this movie is (I think) a little more than a decade old.
Rogue One on IMDB.
Lonestar's Rating: ★★★★★★★★ 8/10.

| T-6 Shuttle Unboxing |
This is the second unboxing of 2026. As stated, it's an unboxing of Ahsoka Tano's T-6 Jedi Shuttle. The box was delivered just three days after it was ordered. So, it arrived much more quickly than the estimated time. It was also perfectly packaged. No damage at all, which is always nice. I bought the shuttle from Amazon.

| T-6 Unboxed |
The T-6 Shuttle was the second Star Wars item that I purchased in January 2026. The box is 12" long and 5.5" deep. It comes with 3 (1-inch micro) figures of Ahsoka Tano, Sabine Wren, and Professor Huyang (with a Removable Backpack). The box is branded with the words "Star Wars Ahsoka."

| T-6 With Ruler For Scale |
Separately, I have action figures of Sabine Wren, and also Ahsoka Tano. I bought the large shuttle just after the New Year. The box describes itself as containing "Ahsoka Tano's T-6 Shuttle." This image shows a 12" ruler in front of the box. Additionally, I have a Hot Wheels version of the T-6.

| Ghost Secret Mission Unboxing |
The box in the picture (below) is branded Star Wars Rebels and states that it features "lights + sounds." The actual box (inside the pictured cardboard box above) measures 18" wide x 8" deep and is called "Ghost Secret Mission." It is a large vehicle (15"/38.1 cm.), possibly even larger than the AT-AT I got for Christmas last year. The set includes the Ghost, two Y-Wing Fighters (7.5"), and the Phantom Shuttle (6"). Separately, I own another Phantom Shuttle and Ghost. The Ghost is a VCX-100 light freighter. This collectible set costs about $68, so it's not cheap. I edited my address and personal information out of the image.

| Ghost Collectible Set |
Ten miniature characters are included in the package. These are Garazeb "Zeb" Orrelios, Ezra Bridger, Kanan Jarrus, Sabine Wren, Hera Syndulla, Jon Vander, and Tyson; plus the astromechs R2-BHD, R5, and Chopper (C1-10P). R2-BHD is Jon Vander's astromech. I assume that the R5 unit is to be paired with Tyson. The Tyson and Vander miniatures are wearing flight suits, so they evidently serve as pilots of the Y-Wing Fighters.

| N-1 Starfighter - Author's Collection |
Din Djarin's N-1 starfighter was a ship used by Mandalorian warrior Din Djarin. He came to own this ship after the destruction of his former vessel, the Razor Crest. The latter had been a military patrol craft, and Djarin lived in and worked from it. It was destroyed by a strike from Moff Gideon's cruiser.
The ship was discovered, restored, and rebuilt by the mechanic Peli Motto, who lived and worked on the planet Tatooine. It was a replacement for the Razor Crest. Djarin, at first, cared little for it, but he came to like the ship after testing its performance. Notably, the dome that housed an area for an astromech droid was removed. It eventually became a space for Din Djarin's friend and ward, Grogu.
The package in the image is 14" wide and 10" tall. It features the starfighter and two action figures, The Mandalorian and Grogu. It also has a Mandalorian jet pack and two projectiles for the ship. I bought this toy myself with some money I got for my birthday. I really like it.

| Obi-Wan Kenobi Action Figure Unboxing |
Does anything remain to be said about this character? I doubt it.

| Obi-Wan Kenobi - Author's Collection |
The action figure is described as the "wandering Jedi." The figure comes with an (uncivilized) blaster and a blue light saber. I got it very cheap (less than $10) on Amazon.com.

| Chewbacca |
I don't have a 3.75 scale version of Chewbacca, but I remember that my brother had one when we were young. I'm still shopping around for one. We called him "Chewie." Every time we played, my brother pretended to be Chewbacca. He also liked to pretend that he was Ookla from Thundarr the Barbarian. Chewbacca was a mysterious character to us. We didn't learn anything about his backstory until the new movies were released, years after the original trilogy.
The picture shows an odd version of Chewbacca. It cost about $14 at Walmart. I got it this past Saturday. Their web page states, in part, about this product:
"MixMashers Star Wars Chewbacca Toy, 5” (12 cm) Mix-&-Match Action Figure, 4+. Kids can pull apart, mix, and mash Star Wars toys to create customized figures. Millions of ways to mix interchangeable parts encourage hours of imaginative play. Comes with a Boba Fett flame thrower gauntlet, bandolier, and E-11 blaster accessories. 5-inch-scale figures with 16 connection points for compatibility across the entire line."

| The Emperor |
One Wiki states: Scheming, powerful, and evil to the core, Emperor Palpatine restored the Sith and destroyed the Jedi Order. The Emperor's real name was Sheev Palpatine. As the lord of the Sith, he was known as Darth Sidious. He ruled the Galactic Empire, along with his enforcer, Darth Vader.
Star Wars: The Last Jedi | Lightspeed Scene 4K (Holdo's Sacrifice)
From the channel of MassiveG.
Vice Admiral Amilyn Holdo rammed her cruiser, the Raddus into a First Order dreadnought in order to give the Resistance enough time to get away. This selfless act has been named the "Holdo Maneuver" by fans. The Holdo Maneuver took place in Star Wars: Episode VIII - The Last Jedi.

| R2-D2 - Author's Collection |
R2-D2 (male droid) or Artoo-Detoo is probably the most well-known astromech droid in the Star Wars franchise. He appears in all of the theatrical releases except for Solo: A Star Wars Story. While many persons and actors are associated in some way with the droid, the "GOAT" individual associated with him is the late actor Kenny Baker.
Baylan Skol & Shin Hati first appearance - Ahsoka S1
From the channel of Ashkhan.
The video shows two characters from the Ahsoka series, Season One. The character of Baylan Skoll was portrayed by the late Irish actor Ray Stevenson. His apprentice, Shin Hati, was portrayed by Ukrainian actor Ivanna Sakhno. I have a miniature of Hati and her ship in my collection. Sakhno also portrayed AMELIA in 2025's M3GAN 2.0.
