Lucas Museum entry gate construction update: The statues of the Four (Two) Sages of Dwartii have been covered. Either gate installation is about to begin, and they need to be protected through that process, or it has been so delayed that they need to be covered in shame.

Fantastic! Here's what we're aiming for, from the building model:

The English translation of the last page of the Japanese edition of "From Star Wars To Indiana Jones" (there titled "George Lucas Museum") is very funny. "Lucas has finally gotten off his lazy butt and begun working on the first, second, and third installments of Star Wars."

"Lucas is now engrossed in realizing another dream at this ranch: the establishment of the Lucas Educational Foundation. This foundation aims to deliver messages to young people using computers and other technologies, and preparations are steadily progressing on the top floor of the main house. The television series "Young Indiana Jones and the Young Indiana Jones Adventures," which features famous historical figures, foreshadows its eventual transformation into educational program software. Furthermore, he recently created a company using digital computers for film editing: Digital Domain, which has brought ILM under its umbrella. Lucas apparently envisions creating a ranch for ILM as well, but seems hesitant due to concerns about the environmental impact. Even at Skywalker Ranch, he has taken environmental considerations into account, deliberately placing the parking lot underground. Lunchtime is about to undergo a major transformation. Lucas has finally gotten off his lazy butt and begun working on the first, second, and third installments of Star Wars. The Star Wars series is apparently scheduled to be released in 1998 and 1999. Ultimately, Lucas will make all the decisions, but Spielberg's name has also been mentioned as a director candidate. If they are released, they are sure to be huge hits. If that happens, more and more of his dreams will come true, and we will become even more intoxicated by his magic. He surely can see that future."

He's going to have to live with that forever because I don't think the company is structurally capable of producing anything that would produce those numbers anymore.

Lucas Museum of Narrative Art construction update: The previously empty cockpit of the Naboo starfighter now contains an Anakin Skywalker mannequin. Statues are currently being installed along the still-unfinished art nouveau entry gates.

We lost Bob Mackie today. I will always be amazed at how intuitively he understood and contributed to Star Wars costume design in his work on the Holiday Special. Goodnight, but not goodbye.

Here's my first pass at a timetable for Detours hunters at the Lucas Museum. A few things to keep in mind: All times are approximate. See what is currently playing on the screen in the lobby, then consult my "time to next Detours" column. Be sure you're on the correct tab for the day of the week.

The first six episodes of STAR WARS DETOURS screen throughout the day in the Slavko Vorkapich theater at the Lucas Museum of Narrative Art. Perhaps they will continue through the series seasonally? I have now seen Max Rebo try to buy Dex's Diner so he can build a restaurant on the land.

Sad part is they did all those things, and still abandoned it when Rise went over budget. Their solution for communicating player state was particularly clever. It did go live, but they never trained the cast to use it. Ambitious, and wouldn't have existed at all if Trowbridge hadn't fought for it.

Hours of canon Star Wars storytelling will evaporate on September 16. The loss of the Datapad's interactivity with Galaxy's Edge is utterly heartbreaking.

Smugglers Gambit features Hondo's ship, The Katooni, from the retired version of the Smugglers Run ride. This ship was recently replaced by the Mandalorian's Razor Crest when the ride was updated, but still lives on in Fortnite.

I'm very curious to what degree the ride differs for those who select this option.

Daring Cuties @daringcuties.bsky.social · 16/08/2026

This video is from yesterday. I highly doubt Neil was hinting at the Fortnite collabo, nor the Hyperspace Mountain de-theming. Between this and the Parks Blog hastily deleting the Scorsese food truck details, I think there was a Star Wars announcement cut at the last minute from tonight's event.

Such a hasty pull, they didn't even replace the copy with anything. It's just the two pictures with no text of any kind. Maybe they decided they wanted to save the announcement for Saturday? Feels late for that.

The FCC test wouldn't need to mention any new upstream functionality (or blade colors) but did show that a different RFID antenna modulation type will be used, which should theoretically help the previous battery drain issue. (Still powered by 3xAAA batteries.)

When I scooped the Batuu Adventure Buddies via their FCC approval, I also mentioned the updated Savi's lightsaber chassis — still forthcoming. The original Savi's hilt RFID functionality was approved under the code "SBE19", and a new approval was filled in June of this year under the code "SBE26".

I never do convention photo ops, but I was compelled to make an exception for the Towani siblings!

Nick with Aubrey Miller and Eric Walker at Rebel Scum Con III. In Nick's cupped hands he cradles a glowing Wistie. Everyone looks surprised. It's one of those fun photo ops, not a stiff one. You get it.

If they must be sold in Depot rather than Stall for a logistical reason, how hard is, "Mubo teamed up with the Anzellans to build an experimental off-site nursery for Bina, who was beginning to run out of space." Done.

If the creatures themselves are not living beings, I'll be forgiven for questioning whether or not this copy was written by a living being.

Shouldn't be surprised, but the decision to narratively frame the "Batuu Adventure Buddies" product line as DROIDS COVERED IN FUR rather than actual creatures is so wrongheaded and disturbing that it undermines the entire concept. Has the LFL / WDI relationship evaporated?

On the eve of The Ninth Jedi, that's certainly an interesting prospect. With the Savi / Kyber / Holocron system being RFID, I suspect a refresh of that is most likely, especially considering the blades are capable of displaying orange & teal but the 1st gen Savi chassis can't send that signal.

Daring Cuties @daringcuties.bsky.social · 12/07/2026

If they have, it also features RFID!
