New Jedi Order Legacy Of The Force Current Results Star Wars Blueprints Collection Posted By Paul on March 23, 2008 You may remember that late last year, we heard about a new set of Star Wars blueprints that were in the works from DK Books. Well, Zee Zee from UK-based fansite Star Wars Books has contacted us, to let us know that listings for the up-coming Star Wars Ultimate Blueprints Collection have appeared online. You can find it at Amazon.com, and also on the website of its publishers, DK.com. Both sites list a release date of 4th August, and give a cover price of $19.99 US. It's also on Amazon.co.uk with a UK price of £12.99, and a UK released date of August 1st. The UK site identifies Ryder Windham as the author, and Chris Trevas and Chris Reiff as illustrators, all of which sounds plausible. Veteran Star Wars artist Chris Trevas has been linked to this project since the StarWars.com "first look" last year, and Reiff has been his collaborator on a regular column in the Star Wars Insider and the website The Parts of Star Wars. Wyndham would presumably be supplying the text accompanying the plans, and for what it's worth--which may not be much--the page on Chris Trevas at Wookieepedia already claims that he's doing just that. As to content, the cover image that we were given on StarWars.com last year announces "five double-sided poster-sized plans", including the Millennium Falcon and Death Star, Artoo, Threepio and Darth Vader, and "lightsabers & blasters". The DK.com page now mentions a look at the Falcon's hyperdrive, and "the complete floor plan of the Deathstar"... which seems quite an impressive claim if it's accurate, considering the size of that thing. Update!: two important bits of news about this. Firstly, we were contacted by Sompeetalay from the Belgian Star Wars fanclub TeeKay-421. He tells us that they have an interview with Ryder Windham in the latest issue of their quarterly print magazine, in which Windham confirms that he's providing the text for this book. Unfortunately, the interview is in Dutch, and it isn't online. You can, however, view the TeeKay-421 website, also in Dutch, here. Then... we were contacted by Chris Trevas and Chris Reiff in person. They've confirmed that they're both doing the art for this book, and that the five posters included will be broadly as they were listed in the "first look": the Millennium Falcon, Darth Vader, the Death Star, Threepio and Artoo, and a selection of weapons. The box art, however, will be different from the mock-up we saw last year, and while we are going to get a look at the Falcon's hyperdrive on one of the posters, the Death Star material won't show a complete floor-plan, though it will offer an indication of how some details fit into the overall design. Another thing I should have said is that Chris Reiff is a veteran product designer/developer whose Star Wars work includes some of the current Wizards of the Coast miniatures. You can check out his website here. We'll bring you more details on this just as soon as we hear them ourselves! email this story discuss in forums Select Date 2008, May 2008, April 2008, March 2008, February 2008, January 2007, December 2007, November 2007, October 2007, September 2007, August 2007, July 2007, June 2007, May 2007, April 2007, March 2007, February 2007, January 2006, December 2006, November 2006, October 2006, September 2006, August 2006, July 2006, June 2006, May 2006, April 2006, March 2006, February 2006, January 2005, December 2005, November 2005, October 2005, September 2005, August 2005, July 2005, June 2005, May 2005, April 2005, March 2005, February 2005, January 2004, December 2004, November 2004, October 2004, September 2004, August 2004, July 2004, June 2004, May 2004, April 2004, March 2004, February 2004, January 2003, December 2003, November 2003, October 2003, September 2003, August 2003, July 2003, June 2003, May 2003, April 2003, March 2003, February 2003, January 2002, December 2002, November 2002, October 2002, September 2002, August 2002, July 2002, June 2002, May 2002, April 2002, March 2002, February 2002, January 2001, December 2001, November 2001, October 2001, September 2001, August 2001, July 2001, June 2001, May 2001, April 2001, March 2001, February 2001, January 2000, December 2000, November 2000, October 2000, September 2000, August 2000, July 2000, June 2000, May 2000, April 2000, March 2000, February 2000, January 1999, December 1999, November 1999, October 1999, September 1999, August 1999, July 1999, June 1999, May 1999, April 1999, March 1999, February 1999, January 1998, December 1998, November 1998, October 1998, July 1998, June Essential Expanded Universe in the LA Times.
