lazypadawanI missed the SW intro to the Yankees/Red Sox game but I saw a poster on another site. Heh heh.
For those of you who don't know what the hell SW has to do with baseball, there has been a long-standing rivalry between the NY Yankees and the Boston Red Sox. Most of what I know comes from a hardcore Red Sox fan I used to work with, a guy from Rhode Island. Red Sox fans have long since referred to the Yankees as the Evil Empire, probably because the Yankees do things like keep the Red Sox out of the World Series and lure their players away with $$$$. So the allegory stuck.
The set of Star Wars Heritage trading cards I bought on eBay arrived today but I haven't had time to go through them yet.
This evening the official site posted another one of those 3D views of the ROTS set. It's of a set with lots of columns. Here's what they had to say, which should be of interest to you A/P fans in the audience:
The expansive corridor that leads from the Senate landing platforms to the inner chambers of the massive edifice are lined by huge marble columns. The long shadows thrown by the heavy pillars are the perfect place for concealment, the ideal hiding place for a Senator to spy on her secret husband as he arrives to yet another hero's welcome.
