    Wouldn't that be a "Life Hole", if it was something the Jedi built?

    You know, because they're opposites...

    You must be familiar with the part in the Jedi Code about raining destruction down on full planets right?

    It comes right before the raping and pillaging part.

    It might be a beam of light to make all the sith there let go of their hate and anger.

    This made me laugh. My friends and I used to play the old West End Games Star Wars RPG back in the day. Our GM had the New Republic invent a weapon that could create planets (or restore them in the case of Alderaan) Called the Life Star. And we joked that it would shoot out a Care Bear stare lmao :)

    That reminds me, you were a humvee gunner during your service or something similar that involved heavy weapons, right?

    Saving that....

    Ya, I also drove ( enough for a combat Driver Badge ) and TC'd ( command ) When I was gunning it was usually behind a M2 .50 Cal, but Once in a while I'd used a M240 with night optics, or Mk19.

    My everyday rifle was a SOPMOD m4, modified with match grade parts, and an ACOG gunsight w/ custom mod using night vision to make it a night scope. Also had a M203 underslung 40mm grenade launcher and lots of HEDP grenades.

    My Favorite weapon though - M107 .50 Anti Material Rifle, aka .50 sniper. The biggest weapon I ever "used" - A pair of Apache gunships I was controlling via ground comm on strafing runs. Just like the movies- call em in and guide them with a radio and IR laser designates.

    I was a standard grunt with some pretty high speed schools, like designated marksman and tac drivers.

    YUP!

    LEGO Toy Suggests Boba Fett Could Be In Rogue One: A Star Wars Story | Comicbook.com

    Can just see it now - Will set up the backstory between Vader and Fett - ie Vader learns how good Fett is as a bounty hunter. I can also see Vader making mention of how he saw Jango beheaded "in front of him."

    Also are we getting a non-DS space station as well or is that for Rebels?

    Can I ask why? Fett has been rumored in this since the start in one form or another.
