The poster came in the mail within the shipping date, but when I tried to put it in the 24 x 36 frame I had, I found out the measurements were off. The poster I received was 22.5 x 34. Great poster and all, but the manufacturer needs to properly measure their posters before release.

Does anyone else have an issue with saving progress made in the game after completing a mission? I’m supposed to see a “continue” button on the menu screen, but at re-start all I see is “new campaign” even though we have completed about 5 missions.
The solution to the problem I posted above is to log in to Windows Live. If you don’t, it forces you to restart everytime you quit. This means of course that if you have the game on a laptop for the kids to play, and decide to visit your relatives, or go somewhere there’s no Internet access then all game progress is lost.
My biggest complaint, though, is that after my son completed the entire mission, the same game refuses to work now on the very same machine. I get an error: “Microsoft Windows has encountered a problem with Republic Heroes.exe”. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the game 3 times and it refuses to run. The game was fun whilst it lasted.
I installed the game on my Windows 7 64 bit machine, but upon trying to start it, the .exe crashes back to the desktop. Nothing online about it. No info on LucasArts’ website. I’m really at a loss. I know it says Vista/XP, but surely a newly released game would work on the newest OS, right? Maybe not. Sucks, since it looks like a fairly fun game.
This is a great game from Lucas Arts! I quite don’t understand the very negative ratings from other customers. I’ve played it with my son (11 years old) and we like the story. the graphics. the 3D environment, the missions and the Star Wars feeling. If you have an Xbox controller attached on your PC it makes also more fun. Overall we gave this game 5 stars and we hope there will be more such exciting games for the PC platform in the future!
It requires you to set up a windows live account or you can’t even save your progress in a single player game. I returned the game for a refund. What is there is very awkward and hard to control characters. Very unprofessional design.
I ordered this poster to take to several conventions to be signed by the various stars of the movie. Poster is a reproduction of the posters hung in theaters, just a bit smaller. I really like it!
We love this poster. It looks great in my sons Star Wars room. Thanks
amazon.com asked me to write a review. I am happy. They sent me a damaged poster. After just one email, they immediately sent me a new one in perfect shape. No questions asked. I will use this company in the future.
The Art of Star Wars: The Clone Wars is a coffee table book that looks excellent and is packed with renderings from the theatrical release and Season I of the TV series. The book also includes a quick peek at Season II. The emphasis is on concept art and you can get a real feel for the development of characters and places. My suggestion would be to take your time going through the book. Study the pictures and absorb the artwork.
Each picture in the book has a caption explaining specifically what you are looking at and what the artist’s name is. Many of the pictures also come with much longer explanations giving excellent background information, e.g., a particularly interesting write-up on the influence of Ralph McQuarrie. We hear from Director Dave Filoni a good deal as he explains the initial concepts of The Clone Wars and takes us through some of the changes that took place as the project came to fruition.
If you are a fan of The Clone Wars and enjoy the visual presentation, then this book is for you
It covers a lot of good things, all episodes of season 1 are included in this book. So that’s so good, with so many precious images…
The style of this book captures the artwork of the Clone Wars in great detail. It shows all of the workings as it is produced for each episode, and shows the working process. But then again, the Clone Wars is moving art in itself. This book is a great find for those who want to see the ideas before they are on the screen. The visuals are just as pretty as the finished composite. It will contend with the movie versions of The Art of Star Wars and is a good buy for those who are collecting.
Watch Video Here: http://www.amazon.com/review/R2YSQ5VQ69FGMO This book is actually published by two publishers, Chronicle Books and Titan Books. I’ve seen both and they are the same except the price which depends on the country you’re in. Chronicle Books is also releasing a US$120 limited edition as well but it’s cheaper on Amazon. It comes with a white slipcase with 8 prints in an envelope inside the back cover.
The Art of Star Wars: The Clone Wars is a pretty thick book at 272 pages. It covers art for the movie as well as the TV series. The chapters are arranged according to the 22 episodes with the last chapter containing a sneak peak into Season II.
We have character designs, ship designs, storyboards, environment design, lighting studies, some film stills and plenty of beat boards (scenes featuring major story points). The artistic style and feel here are very different from the usual Star Wars art books since this is for the animated series. The characters might be a little over stylized but that’s why it’s done in animation.
A great deal of illustrations are digitally painted, to a point I feel there’s an overdose and makes traditional pieces stand out by contrast. The detailed pieces are great because they have a hint of textures. The less detailed paintings look like a speed painting pieces with that blotchy feel. Curse the round-point tip brush! I guess I still like to see textures created by brush bristles.
The pencil sketches and other non traditional medium pieces are delightful to look at because they are more organic and the style is a breath of fresh air compared to the digital paintings. Many of the sketches come with handwritten notes from the artists.
Film stills are very few and there are almost no 3D models. This book really focuses on the pre-production concept art.
All the drawings are captioned by the artists and production team. They talk about the concept and sometimes some production stories, such as rigging, modeling and texturing. The pencil drawings on General Grievous’s original form before mechanical “improvements” are interesting to look at, and read since the artists couldn’t decided whether he’s should be a gorilla or cockroach.
Overall, I consider this art book is worth the money because of its satisfactory volume, and art of course.
My reservation is only to the insane amount of full coloured illustrations digitally created. It’s a personal preference.

My 7 yo son wanted to play this game on his DiDJ so he saved and finally bought it. When it arrived, he desperately open the box and inserted the cartridge in the game console. A few minutes later he was enjoying , making noices and having fun. The questions provided in this game were something new for him so this keep him excited and inmerse in the game.
I asked hime the next day about some of the questions the game showed up and he was able to retain knowledge. That’s nice! He’s on advance math class
I got this game with Sonic for my 6 year old’s Didj and although he plays sonic more, he loves this one. This one is a little more difficult so I like that it challenges him more but I don’t like the math question options as much. It still is teaching him so it’s not all bad, just not my favorite. He still likes to play it even after having it for months and I can go on the computer and choose what questions it asks him to try to keep it at his level.
My son got the Diji for Christmas this year from Santa and he literally didn’t put it down for three days. With the after X-mas sales I got him this game. Along with other parents I worried that it may be too old for him (he is 6) and might be too much of a challenge with the math skills. No, he did just fine. He only asked me for a little bit of help, and thanks to his sister-who got online and spent some of his “credits” he has new challenges and new stuff for all of his games. Way to go Diji, keep the cool games coming and this will stick around for a long time.
Star wars is a math oriented game that is great for grades 1 – 3 and review or refresh of basic math for older kids. More difficult math for upper levels needs a different game. The fun my boys have with this game, they don’t even realize they are doing math and learning. They are learning and refreshing so much I am very pleased! I can program the game to specify the areas each child needs to work on (multiplication for my eldest, two digit adding and subtracting with carrying/borrowing for my middle and +/- 0-12 for my youngest) I highly recommend this for fun and or math!
If you are a fan of the series and are a Star Wars nut like myself this is a must buy. Just about every character from the series has there own page. No Boba? Huh? I was hoping for more info on each, but for the price this is a good deal. They have a little blurb about the episode and their part. And that’s about it. They only talk about 2 or 3 things each when it comes to their wardrobe/weapons/equipment. If you are looking for an in depth look into the characters from the series you might want to wait for another edition of this or the huge Star Wars Encyclopedia. But, like I said, if you are a huge Star Wars nut like me, order this as soon as you can. For this price it’s a steal.
