UPDATE! SWNN Giveaway: The Discerning Jedi Ultimate Star Wars Gift Box!
The nice folks over at Broquet have decided they would like to share the Ultimate Gift Set for The Discerning Jedi with the ultimate site for discerning fans here at Star Wars News Net. This Ultimate Gift Box is a treasure trove of small Star Wars items that combine to make one great gift “For a man who loves Star Wars, this elegant gift set is full of cool, memorable goodies.”
This Ultimate Star Wars gift box comes stuffed to the gills with a variety of unique items to satisfy a wide variety of interests. Up first, what I think may be the main draw for many, are 3 Star Wars Build-Your-Own Metal Figurine Kits. These are marked for ages 14 and up and that does seem to be warranted. These are some pretty advanced kits that come in a very small package. The individual pieces are stamped and extremely thin pieces of metal, ready for you to pop out and assemble. You will want a pair of small pliers, some tweezers, and the hands of a surgeon for these kits as the pieces are small, sharp, and take a bit of finesses to put together, but the end results are very cool.
Also in the gift box you will find 6 Star Wars Patent Blueprints made with Archival Heavyweight Matte Paper and Archival Pigment Inks. Each one of these is a single Star Wars ship or vehicle, and they each come in their own individual transparent plastic envelope for protection. These are just really cool to look at and could be fun to frame or just keep at your desk.
Rounding out the gift box we have a Millennium Falcon bottle opening, a hand crafted wooden Darth Vader beard comb, and my personal favorite the silicon Death Star Ice mold. The Falcon bottle opener fits nicely in you hand and has a hefty weight to it making me thing it will have some longevity in its many battles with various beer bottles. The Darth Vader beard comb, is actually a nice bit of craftsmanship and I would presume it would work well for those with chin whiskers. As someone without, I think it will work nicely as a particularly geeky rake for a Zen rock garden. And finally, what glass of Jawa Juice, blue milk, or Corellian Brandy would be complete without a fully armed and operational cooling sphere. Watching the death star slowly melt into a glass of whiskey is just as satisfying as you might imagine it would be.
To top it all off, Broquet sends the gift box in sturdy wooden crate packaging, and we’d like to send one of those wooden crates right to your door so one of our lucky readers can enjoy in the fun as well.

I am looking forward to Rogue One actually as much as Episode VIII
I’m excited for pretty much every upcoming Star Wars film, although I’m probably most looking forward for Episode VIII!
Mmmm… I was looking the most forward to Rouge One (mainly because of the inclusion of Mads Mikkelsen and of course in hope of it to be the first real good STAR WARS prequel, UNTIL the new production announcement of Episode VIII hit the web. I’m so excited to see Rian Johnson on set! (You’ll do great!) Kinda funny we get to see footage of Episode VIII before anything from Rouge One! XD
I’m most looking forward to Episode VIII. I just need to know more about Rey!
Agreed! 😉
AND Ben Solo! 😉
Episode 8, hands down. I have total confidence in Rian Johnson to deliver a film that is not only as interesting and enjoyable as TFA, but is also, original and thrilling in its own right.
Right now I’m probably more exited about Rogue One. It will be interesting to see the first ever anthology film, and what is different with it compared to the saga films. I’m also exited because it’s supposedly quite a dark and gritty film, something I think Star Wars could benefit from, as it could give viewers a more realistic view of the universe. 🙂
Episode 8. It’s been set up pretty well and I think the director is a good choice for shaking up the new canon.
Rouge One…it’s sooner.
Is that a sequel to Moulin Rouge?
Yeah, remember that great cancantina scene.
Haha! *self face-palm*
Definitely Episode 8! Although I heard the other day Alan Tudyk is in Rogue One… :3
Rogue One. I’ve yet to hear any bad potential things about it, I always wanted to see a non Jedi/Sith oriented film, Darth Vader/Tarkin may have roles, the cast is full of quality, all the main characters are new which is a first for a SW film, and it’s probably the closest we’ll get to an X-Wing adaptation.
As cool as the premise for Rogue One sounds, I just cannot wait for episode 8. After episode 7’s cliffhanger ending, I cannot be more curious and speculative about what is going to happen in episode 8 and I just wish it could get here sooner! Just think of it, 4 years from now, the sequel trilogy will have been completed and we’ll all be watching this trilogy from start to finish on repeat…cannot wait!!!
Episode 8 since the teaser gave me chills, can’t wait to see more of Luke. But I’m really looking forward to Rogue One as well, the cast is stellar.
Rouge One…’nuff said.
…or nuff red.
VIII – must know more about The Knights of Ren!
episode 8 OF COURSE
Episode VIII, since it’s a continuation of a story I’m already invested in >w<
Waiting for Episode 9, as it will cap off the new trilogy and finally reveal ALL the secrets contained in it!
It was Rogue One but man that Episode VIII teaser won me over
Looking forward to Episode VIII the most, I must know what happens between Rey and Luke!
I can’t wait to see Rogue One. Really looks like its gonna be an awesome movie.
Episode VIII for me, though Rogue One looks amazing. I’d say the Boba Fett film, but as that’s not confirmed, and the third movie is now on hold, I’ll stick with the others.
I need a Rogue One teaser now please.
Definitely Rogue One. I can’t wait for a Band of Brothers style action set in the Star Wars universe.
I’m looking forward to Episode 8 the most. I can’t wait to find out what happens next.
Episode 8 absolutely
Looking forward to 8, along with everything else soon to come!
Episode 8 is definitely gonna be great. I’m betting all the secrets will be revealed there and 9 will just be how everyone deals with the revelations.
Definitely the Han Solo movie. So that one Youtube kid who looked like Harrison Ford isn’t being considered for the role?
Any film will be welcomed, but I’m looking forward to Episode VIII to see where they are taking the story
Definitely looking forward to seeing Luke’s full capabilities, so whether that’s in Ep 8 or 9, I don’t know. I wonder how he’ll match up against Galen Marek…. ?
VIII is too far away to get excited about…. but Rogue One is right around the corner! Heck.. i want to see them all!
Ep8. or R1…I don’t really know, I’m looking forward for every star wars movie (exept the Han Solo spin off, I think we don’t need that think)
Looking forward to episode 8………..
Looking forward to any uplifting feeling of the good use of the Force been seen in any future movie.
Episode 8!
Episode VIII is what I’m looking forward to most. We still have so many questions!
If they ever announce an Obi-Wan film, then that will take top billing for me.
I look forward to episode IX because it’ll tie up the whole story so far…..
After the Slave 1 / Boba Fett rumors, Rogue One is definitely what i’m looking forward too. Maybe this is the story that warrants the line “No Disintegrations”
Can’t wait for Episode 8!
Any of the upcoming films are welcome. However, I am looking forward to seeing how VIII tackles VII’s very abrupt cliffhanger. I also want to see the Kessel Run in the Han Solo anthology film.
I’m pretty excited to see Ep VII – let’s see where it all goes.
