I'm really glad you did a video. I was thinking about doing one, but decided to add more pictures for Boardgamegeek. This is a great expansion. I would love more expansion I also added an Etsy character and ship model maker, Blue Arrow, he's awesome with adding more items to enhance the game. I recently bought Hotshots myself. I wish they had added more of the orange tokens for the extra planets. I did play with all the new additions too. The event deck seemed to slow down to game when we had four players. It was nice to get extra cash from time to time, but I feel it slowed the game just a bit more. We all liked the new Imperial check point and the Asteroid field. We tended to start around those two new red dots but then moved to the middle of the map instead of hopping between the hyper space lanes.

Capt_Kiwii made an extraordinary work with this fanmade expansion (only the addition of Jin Djarinn could be seen as "anachronical" if we see the game's timeline between Rebels series and épisode IV). Nevertheless, there's other possibilities for expansions : from "Jedi Survivor" videogame or "Andor" series, and also why not an "Inquisitory" dedicated set where we play Sisters and Brothers instead of smugglers or bounty hunters to chase remaining jedi and force sensible character {I imagined Great Inquisitor, Vader, Emperor or Moth Motma replacing patrols and must be encountered to validated missions, balancing allegeances among them}

Watching this a year later, your video popped up after I searched "are we at the end of culture?". For some reason this week I'm really getting this vibe that we're at the end of culture or time or like something big is on the horizon because where we are at now is unsustainable for the status quo to remain in place. There's a few explanations for it, but there is no denying it's a creepy feeling. It's partly due to post-modernism I think, and also the popular culture has splintered into a million different directions due to the internet. I also think part of the reason the decades of the second half of the 20th century are so identifiable is because pop culture media really exploded in a way it never had before and people as a whole for the most part were roughly on the same page as each other when it came to what TV shows, movies and music they were consuming. There was a certain cohesion that resulted, and it's been decimated by the internet. Kids would now rather watch Tik Tok or KZbin than watch TV or go to a movie. Even major media corporations like Disney have hit a wall and are having failure after failure losing millions on shows and movies that don't find or connect with an audience. I don't think anyone really knows what comes next. Anyhow, good luck to you!

Aw man, you're really letting a lot of utility pass you by where these figures are concerned. Getting Rabban to articulate at the waist and torso is as simple as heating up the figure until the plastic is pliable and THEN breaking the various joints loose. This will also prevent broken joints, although McFarlane figures are probably the least likely of all figures to break. The same goes for fitting the rocket launcher in the hand - warm up the hand a little, insert handle, squeeze figures tight until it cools and wha-la. I prefer to soak all new figures in a plastic container full of scolding hot water for one minute, then freeing up all points of articulation. A blow dryer works too, but is better for small areas. By the way thanks for reviewing these, I've been curious about them.
