Star Wars strange facts-

Mouse Droid is another name for the smaller versions of MSE droids. These black, trapezoidal droids roll around on 6 wheels. They are made by the Rebaxan Colmuni company. The Empire used these small, 10-inch-tall droids to fill the need for cheap, reliable labour. These boxy little droids, known as Mouse Droids because of their size, were easily programmed to perform class-three tasks, such as message delivery, in nearly every Imperial
outpost, including the Death Star.

Cool Star Wars Photos, Vader at the photo booth

What pranksters Obi won and Yoda are, messing around with poor old Vader trying to get some photos at a photo booth.cool star wars photos darth in a photo booth quick star wars fact: The swamp planet that was home to Yoda was called Dagobah and was in the Sluis sector. The planet's day lasts 22 Earth hours, and its year is 340 days long. Towards the end of the Dark Jedi Insurrection, a Dark Jedi hid here and caused the planet to be bathed in Dark Side energy. Maybe this is why Jedi Master Yoda could hide on the planet when Palpatine was eradicating the Jedi, seeing his Light Side would have been covered by the Dark Side energy on the planet.

Incom industries T-65c A2 Starfighter is usually just called the X-Wing. It is a fighter that has great manoeuvrability and shooting accuracy because of its two wings that split in two by activating S-foils. Each wing has its own laser cannon. It is a single pilot ship, with a socket for an R2 astromech droid that will act as a navigational computer.

The X-Wing was designed by Incom for the Empire but the Empire thought Incom
were Alliance sympathisers and stopped manufacture. The X-Wing team then defected to the Alliance, flying out with all the X-Wing plans and prototypes and then destroying all x-wing records the databases of the Empire and Incom. After that the Alliance then started to make X-Wings themselves.

When Senator Palpatine assumed the throne of galactic Emperor, he knew that the Jedi Knights were the only thing that could possibly stop his total control, so he sent a fleet of forces to exterminate all Jedi. He nearly succeeded, because the only Jedi that did survive were Darth Vader, Obi-Wan Kenobi, and Yoda. Yoda was the only true Jedi Master left. It is said that the best and truest Jedi Masters do not truly die, but move on to some mystical state of being.

The Krayt Dragon is a huge, terrifying beast native to the planet Tatooine. The Krayt dragon is a beast which continues to grow larger the whole time of its years.

Cool Star Wars Photos, George Lucas In Carbonite

A clever take on the classic scene with Han Solo frozen in carbonite. This time it is George Lucas. Gee, the belly is a lot smaller here than in real life.

cool star wars photos george lucas in carbonite

Cool Star Wars Photos Fact -

Carbonite Freezing Chamber
This is a chamber so Tibanna gas can be held for transport by freezing it inside carbonite. The Tibanna gas is pumped into the chamber and then molten carbonite is poured in. Then it is frozen to seal the gas in the block of carbonite until it is released by thawing it out.

Lando Calrissian had one on his Cloud City mining colony and Darth Vader was going to use it to freeze Luke Skywalker to transport to the Emperor but had Han Solo frozen instead.

Cool Star Wars Photo, The AT-AT Girl

These two cool star wars photos are from a couple of t-shirts I have seen in a local store. A Star Wars AT-AT as a pet for some little girl.

cool star wars photos atat tshirt 1

cool star wars photos atat tshirt 2 

Cool Star Wars Photo Fact -

AT-AT
Imperial All-Terrain Armoured Transport vehicle, an elephant like assault tank that was built at the Kuat Drive Yards. These are around 15 metres tall machines that walk around on four articulated legs. They require a crew of 3 to operate, although that much of the war machine's motion is controlled by complex computers. 

The Star Wars AT-AT has two heavy laser cannons and two  medium sized blasters on its head-like cockpit, it was designed to instill fear in the enemies of the Empire. General Veers was a proponent of the AT-AT, and conveniently hid the truth that the ATAT can easily be tipped over by a simple cable wrapped around its legs. This weakness was used very effectively by the Alliance on planet Hoth  but still the Empire use the AT-AT at later battles. The AT-AT can carry up to 400 kilograms of cargo plus 40 troops  .

Hi and welcome to Cool Star Wars Photos

Hi and welcome to Cool Star Wars Photos. This will be my little blog of all types of interesting, funny, weird, strange and cool Star Wars photos and pictures and drawings.

Now I don't need to explain what Star Wars is do I. Every one in the world must know of these movies. Some Star Wars Movies were good - the original episodes 4, 5 and 6 and some were bad - Star Wars Episodes 1, 2, and 3.

Feel the force of these cool star wars photos, yes feel the force.

I really think Star Wars A New Hope was the best. A new hope is Episode 4 of Star Wars. This is the official Episode title for the film Star Wars, which originally did not have an Episode name or
number. This was added for the 1978 re-release, after work had been started on Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back.
Star Wars won the following Academy Awards:
