I can't decide which one of sculptor Gabriel Dishaw's Star Wars models is the craziest. Tank Vader on the left, or the Clone Fembot in the middle? Probably the latter. But I'm pretty sure there's no better way to make use of old hardware and keyboards.
We'd heard Star Wars: Clone Wars for Wii and DS would be hitting this Fall, but it looks like that meant fiscal Fall? A recent announcement's dated both titles for "Holiday 2008."
