Episode 105 : The Old Jock and the Crazy Canucks

We are back after a bit of a break due to holidays and the such. Plus we had to wait for Jason to get through customs after he was detained trying to smuggle acres of Canadian cardboard in his luggage and down his britches. Our feature this month is The Nelvana Reunion panel featuring John Celestri, Larry Jacobs, and Brian Lemay and they talk about their experiences working on the Holiday Special, Droids, and Ewoks cartoons! The panel took place at ‘May the North be with You’ in Toronto on August 5th - Thanks to Chris Porteous. Action figure face-off is nearing its conclusion as Andy Preston defends Dengar, Andy Norton loves Luke Jedi, Jason Smith wonders over Warok and Peter Davis delights over the Death Star Droid. Richard Hutchinson has an impossible job trying to choose the winner.  Rebel Briefings is jam packed with wondrous tales of collecting, Richard interviews Tom Scaife & others regarding a Pre-production find in the USA, the mystery of Willrow Hood is finally revealed and so much more Star Wars collecting goodness is discussed. The licencee section finishes it all off looking at Fundimensions and their small but perfectly formed releases.
