The Star Wars Vault: Thirty Years of Treasures from the Lucasfilm Archives

Product Information

It also includes some nice souvenirs from a bygone era like a severed Jedi braid, a military patch, a napkin with a lightsaber design drawn on it. Very nice.

The effort taken to present this 'lost' manual of the Jedis deserve applause. Pressing the button makes the vault doors open up with beeps and hisses and the book itself rises from inside thanks to a battery operated platform (batteries included as well. That's rare!) After a while, though, the novelty wears off a bit. It's not bad but there's just so many times you can press the button and see the book rise because you get tired of it. Allow me to present the Defender Elite for your inspection, Grand Admiral, and then I will provide you with a flight demonstration." ―Thrawn and Skerris [15] The Holocron Vault first appeared in The Clone Wars: The Holocron Heist, a novel based on the Star Wars: The Clone Wars series, but now considered part of the continuity of Star Wars Legends and not canon. They appeared in official canon in " Holocron Heist," on which the novel was based. Yes, it's geeky, yes, it's over the top, but it's commitment to realism is so impressive, you simply give in to it. Dominate the holotables with your squad of iconic heroes in an epic team battle. Galactic combat awaits!The book was published in the United States, the United Kingdom, Japan, France, Germany, Spain, the Netherlands and Czechia.

In that year, [13] following Skerris' demise, Captain Benj Dobbs was placed in command of Defender Squadron One. Commodore Faro believed that the pilot's death over Lothal was the direct result of his arrogance. However, she also believed that Dobbs and his pilots could not match Skerris' skill in combat, and hoped that the squadron was able to rise up to the task should the Chimaera face another battle. [21] One more thing of note: This is presented as a kind of training manual for Jedi padawans, but it's not realistic in that capacity. There's too much levity in the text itself, and it comes across as conversational in tone. This is not something I would expect from a textbook or any kind of book one would give to a student. This narrows the target audience even further for now you need someone who is passionate about the canon for its knowledge yet willing to not take it too seriously, and just how many super fanboys do you find who are built like that? I'm super serial here; I've seen the most passionate arguments on Star Wars message boards about things I couldn't begin to follow. One I saw just after Revenge of the Sith came out was about Mace Windu's lightsaber style, something called Vaapad which is briefly mentioned in this book, and why he was able to hang with the Emperor while every other Jedi was taken out like they learned their lightsaber skills from a single tee-ball practice. I imagine the participants in this discussion looked something like this:

As the test pilot chosen to fly the TIE Defender, Skerris pushed the prototype to its limits in combat engagements, repeatedly proving the ship's potential in the process. The test flights he undertook provided sufficient data to create a new fighter, the TIE/D Defender Elite, [6] which possessed superior speed, weapons, and shielding to the original. [15] In 1 BBY, [13] Skerris was posted to [15] the Outer Rim planet [16] Lothal, [15] where the TIE Defenders [17] and the new fighter were being produced. [6] Being the leader of Thrawn's TIE Defender initiative, Skerris was entrusted with the testing and development of the new ship. [18] He brought the fighter to a remote airfield on Lothal. After exiting the ship, he was greeted by Thrawn and Pryce, who had arrived to witness a flight demonstration of the prototype performed by Skerris. [15] After reading "The Bounty Hunter Code" (TBHC after this) from the same series as this book I was hoping this book would be a bit better. TBHC was fun, but too stale and dry for my taste. I was expecting "The Jedi Path" to be much more philosophical, since Jedi are much more spiritual than bounty hunters. So, did this book do its job?

With the push of a button, the doors of the vault open in a wash of light and Star Wars sound effects. The inner platform rises, revealing this exclusive edition of The Jedi Path. Star Wars: Timelines places the events of Star Wars: Episode VIII The Last Jedi, in which Kylo Ren pilots the TIE silencer, in 34 ABY. As with the TBHC this book is meant as a guide. In this case, for aspiring young students of the Force. And just like TBHC this book is a wonderful collection of texts, illustrations, and annotations by famous characters from the Star Wars Universe. Overall I liked this book very much. Especially the parts about the Jedi code and the Force are great parts to read. I didn't like the parts about attire, and equipment as much, since they were quite dry, just like TBHC. What really adds to this books are the annotations by famous Jedi and even Sith. They added a lot of flavour and a little bit more depth to the book, even though these are no longer considered canon.Oh I'm afraid not, my dear. I haven't been inside myself for years. Only members of the Jedi Council are allowed access." ―Ahsoka Tano asking Jocastu Nu about entering the Holocron Vault [1] If I stand up I can also reach all six books of William Shakespeare's two Star Wars trilogies, a Momaw Nadon action figure, and Star Wars Year by Year: A Visual Chronicle. But this was too much even for me. It hits a level of detail that often left me lost, and I found it a little tedious even though it's an easy read. I've never lost Star Wars Trivial Pursuit, but that's because the game I have pertains to the original trilogy movies, and has only a few expanded universe book questions thrown in, and the movies is where my base of knowledge lies. This book touches on stuff in the movies, but is mostly related to expanded universe matters which comes from books, video games, and, I believe, some fan fiction.
