I know that these toys are not the proper representation of the scene in Star Wars. The Yoda is too old and those are Storm Troopers and not Clones. But a guy at work brought in the Republic Gunship so I figured I’d do some sort of representation with my figures.
I’ve been watching Star Wars: The Clone Wars on Netflix and getting more and more into Star Wars. The cartoon really good. I’m not sure if I’m going to let the kids watch it yet because characters do end up dying. I’m only on season one but it is really well done.
I’m becoming more and more excited about the return of Star Wars Rebels next weekend and then Episode 7 this Christmas. I think with the countdown calendar it has made me even more excited for the Star Wars toys. I never had them at all when I was a kid and I guess I’m making up for lost time.

Sabine is a strong confident female character and I liked that about her and knew that Eva would be a big time fan.

The show quickly became one of my favorites and I cannot wait for Season Two to start on June 20th. But that isn’t the big news of today.
The big news is that the characters of Kanan Jarrus, Ezra Bridger, Sabine Wren and Zeb Orrelios were announced to be figures in the upcoming Disney Infinity 3.0 game. There is not Play Set to go with these new characters however, the best thing I’ve heard so far about Disney Infinity 3.0 is that all the Star Wars characters can work in every one of the Star Wars Play Sets and there will be three of those. The Star Wars Rebels characters will be unlockable in the Play sets. So that means that Zeb can fight alongside Chewbacca or Kanan and Obi Wan can defend the Jedi order.
