Hello and good Wednesday to you all, friendly readers. Let us celebrate this mid-week achievement with a mash-up.

In Return of the Jedi, Princess Leia disguises herself as Boushh the bounty hunter, in order to gain access to Jabba the Hutt’s palace. The plan was to rescue Han Solo from his carbonite prison and then escape. The first part succeeded. The second part…not so much.

Here’s Cyran in the Boushh armor just after the big reveal of who’s under the mask. The piece ended up feeling really angular. Odd.

That’s all for this week. Come back next week for some more Episode VI fun.

Wednesday Mash-up time! Let us see what Santa Mash-up has brought us this week!

Klonoa is my very favorite video game series. It’s just adorable. I first played the game in a demo from Playstation magazine on my roommate’s machine and was hooked. It was one of the first games I got when I got my own Playstation. I bought the soundtrack on CD. The day I saw that Klonoa 2 had come out for the PS2, I immediately went out and bought the machine just so I could play the game (an expensive day). I have the Gameboy Advance games. I think the only games I don’t have are the Japanese-only ones. I started playing around with a Klonoa card game (one of my many dropped game designs). All this to say that I think Klonoa is awesome.

So Cyran got to be Klonoa on account of his floppy ears. I adapted Klonoa’s ring to accommodate Cyran’s wrench. Gotta love the Pac-Man on his cap. It’s odd that the logo would be on the back of it though, right?

That’s all for this week and the video game theme. Next week we revisit Star Wars with a mini Return of the Jedi theme.
