A Color You’ve Never Seen (Until Now) One of the most iconic characters in the Star Wars galaxy, Yoda’s tiny green-skinned figure is instantly recognisable. But what if we told you he almost looked very different? Archival sources indicate that Yoda’s original concept and early script references described him as a bluish creature, not the emerald sage we know today. The Evidence: Script, Concept Art & Comics According to early drafts of The Empire Strikes Back, the screenplay described Yoda’s first appearance on Dagobah thusly: “Mysteriously standing right in front of Luke is a strange, bluish creature, not more than two feet tall. The wizened little thing is dressed in rags.” In addition to the draft, early Marvel Comics adaptations of the film, based on the screenplay, portrayed Yoda with blue or purplish tones — a clear indication the final green came later. Concept art from the late 1970s also…

Grakkus the Hutt’s Lightsaber Collection Has a Secret Star Wars Connection
Star Wars fans love a good deep-cut detail, and the team behind Star Wars: Beyond Victory has delivered a gem worthy of a Hutt’s treasure hoard. If you’ve seen Grakkus the Hutt’s new look in Beyond Victory, you probably noticed the string of Lightsaber hilts draped around his neck — a bold fashion statement even by galactic crime lord standards. But here’s the kicker: those hilts aren’t just random trinkets. They’re actually crafted from Lightsaber parts seen in Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order.

The design team revealed that each hilt was inspired by fallen Jedi weapons scavenged across the Outer Rim, blending bits and pieces straight from Fallen Order’s in-game models. It’s a subtle crossover that…
No Underwear in Space: The Iconic Star Wars Costume Anecdote of George Lucas and Carrie Fisher
Setting the Stage: Star Wars, 1977 and Princess Leia’s Costume In 1977, a 19-year-old Carrie Fisher donned Princess Leia’s flowing white gown on the set of Star Wars: Episode IV – A New Hope. This now-iconic dress was long, shapeless, and undeniably white. Fisher later confessed she wasn’t a fan of the outfit – “I wore that damn white thing for the whole first movie!” she quipped, lamenting that it was the only costume Leia got to wear. The young actress’s frustration is understandable; the dress was not only plain but also presented some unique wardrobe challenges. Despite Star Wars being a space fantasy, creator George Lucas was oddly concerned with certain “realistic” details. One such detail was the matter of undergarments (or lack thereof) in outer space. The costume’s thin fabric and the bright studio lighting made traditional underwear problematic – any visible lines or straps would have disrupted…
