Yeah definitely chain car washes. I finally took my SUV to a car was a couple years ago. I just dont have any time for it. Paid or doing it myself.
So my paint job suffers. What does it have to do with star wars? I brought up that hasbro could put it's molds in storage units. There is not a storage crisis in the states. Then someone agreed that storage units are a plague and said carwashes are too. Reading is fundamental. Try it sometime. Especially with context clues. |

There was the story about a ship carryig a shipping container with molds that sank.
I've also heard that China kept molds as revenge when Hasbro packed up and went to Vietnam for manufacturing too. Would not surprise me if the occasional Hasbro mold was also lost or declared broken by the factory when in actuality it was sold to another factory for bootlegs. https://www.hisstank.com/forum/g-i-j...ool-molds.html |

I thought the molds are the property of the factories?

I think they're sort of leased out from Hasbro for their toys or places like Funskool, but over the years it's not worth the time or cost to retrieve them especially now with their new scanning tech they dont need decades old molds

this is why i hate the clones and think it was stupid they were cloned from jango fett
im no 1977 star wars superfan and only the original unedited star wars is the best star wars kind of person, but the way obiwan referred to in the clone wars was more like the jedi fighting clones, rather than with clones. otherwise he would have said "fighting the separatists" or "the battle droid wars". no one ever thought "wait a minute, we were just fighting this guy. now we have an army?" obiwan literally went to clone headquarters, met the shady son of a bitch they were cloned from, and was like "well that's weird. guess i'll fight him again and then not say anything about it to anyone." thank you prequel trilogy production yes men for not getting george's head out of his butt. is rex cool? sure ok. is an army of a guy that was a bad guy, and then actually programmed to turn on their compatriots something no one else saw coming?

Obviously, anything in ANH is kinda meaningless now because Lucas has long retconned it all. Vader and Anakin were literally two different characters in his mind in ANH. Tarkin mentions Vader being all that is left of that ancient religion...despite Tarkin later seeing Jedi aplenty right up to ANH, with Lucas himself having Jedi like Ahsoka survive the Clone Wars into the OT. But that's always the case with Star wars. It's a mess. Remember in TFA Rey and Finn surprised Jedi and the Force exist...despite Finn literally working under Kylo Ren and the Jedi having been wrecked only a couple years before TFA? or Finn's THEY FLY NOW despite everything showing Imperials flying for decades. |

Isn't it a new hope when ben says to luke that he fought with his father in the clone wars?

Canon as in the OT? No. Because the next time Luke talks to Ben about Vader he already knows it's Anakin.
I think it was supplemental stuff in the 90s where I first remember reading about Anakin and Obi-wan having fought at the end of the Clone Wars and fell into the lava. |
