About a year ago, we showed you a model of a TIE fighter that we constructed using one of our Star Wars model kits. Well, now we have a brand new range of Star Wars model kits on offer (and just in time for the new film!)

With a newly-replenished stock of model kits in the Gadget Inspector warehouse, we thought we'd put our skills to the test once again and try to construct one of the new models. Just like last time, we started off with two metal sheets and a set of illustrated instructions that we pretended not to need. We popped out the the pieces carefully, trying not to damage them lest our efforts be wasted.

Next, using our superior hand-eye co-ordination (and perhaps a little bit of the Force), we started putting the pieces together. We strongly recommend that you keep a pair of tweezers handy when you attempt one of these model kits because some parts can be fiddly.

Anyway, we're pleased to announce that we succeeded in our second model-making quest, and we have once again constructed our very own Tie Fighter Model! We're very proud of the finished model, and we now have it on display in the office so everyone can admire its beauty.

As Christmas is very nearly here, we though we would share some fun festive trivia to keep you all entertained!

Toilet Brush Tree

Fake Christmas Trees date back to 1886, and were made in London from green raffia, which was more commonly used to make grass hula skirts. Other early versions were made from dyed goose feathers, and bristles more traditionally used to create toilet brushes!

Banana Christmas Trees

In the absence of the traditional fir tree, Christians in India celebrate by decorating banana and mango trees instead!

KFC for Christmas?

In Japan, KFC has become an important part of the Christmas tradition, with five to ten times the normal sales being made over the festive season!

Gifts in Shoes?

We're all familiar with the famous Christmas stocking, but in the Philippines, they have slightly different version on this tradition. Children leave their polished shoes and freshly washed socks on the window sill, for the Three Kings to leave presents in as they pass through the house at night.

This Nativity Stinks! 

In Catalonia, a figure called 'Caganer' is included in their nativity scenes, which displays the form of a defecating man!

Pick the Pickle

In the United States, families hide a pickle decoration somewhere on the Christmas tree, for family members to hunt out. The first person to find it is usually rewarded with a small gift, and is said to have good fortune for the following year. Although this tradition was originally thought to have originated in Germany, people now believe it to be wholly American Christmas idea.  

'Hark the Herald (silence)'

There is no mention of angels singing anywhere in the Bible, which means that your entire childhood nativity memories were all a lie!

The new Star Wars Battlefront game was released in Europe today, which made us even more excited for the release of the new film next month! Here are ten reasons why we're reeeeaaaally looking forward to Star Wars: The Force Awakens.

1. It's Been 10 Whole Years Since the Last Instalment 

Revenge of the Sith came out way back in 2005, which means that the latest instalment of our favourite franchise is long overdue! Plus, we get to see brand new material as opposed to a back story, making room for brand new characters in our sci-fi loving hearts!


2. Han and Chewie are Back!

This awesome duo will be back in action in this film, along with many of the other characters from the original trilogy. Princess Leia actress Carrie Fisher also appears in the trailer for the film, although her brother Luke was apparently absent. Don't worry though, Mark Hamill appears on the cast list, which means that we should be seeing more of our favourite Jedi very soon!

3. Return to Practical Effects 

Many people had problems with the over-use of computer generated effects in the prequel series, but it looks like the newest film will mark something of a return to the much-loved practical effects of the first films. Although it's sure to contain some modern, digital alterations in addition to these effects, the combination of the two if done right, could make for a highly effective end product.

4. The New Director is a Lifelong Fan

While it would be ridiculous to disregard what George Lucas has achieved with his creation over the years, it was clear that the franchise needed a fresh injection of talent to get it back on its feet again. J.J Abrams will not only bring a new approach to the beloved series, but will also ensure that it's treated with great care, thanks to the fact that he is a lifelong fan off the movies himself!

5. Expanding the Star Wars Universe 

As I mentioned in point 1, it's been a long time since we've seen new characters and locations, but the overall reboot will also contain spin-off films which tell untold stories of the Star Wars universe. This means that the new film will be getting us in the mood for a whole host of new Star Wars stories! The first of these films will be Rouge One: A Star Wars Story, and will star Hannibal and Casino Royale star Mads Mikkelsen! 


6. John Williams' Score

The composer is back on board to give us more of the iconic Star Wars music that we all know and love!


7. The new Lightsaber 

While the new, mysterious crossguard lighsaber has caused some controversy amongst fans since the trailer was released, we honestly can't wait to see it in action!

8. Gwendoline Christie as Captain Phasma

As avid Thrones fans, we're super excited to see the Brienne of Tarth actress in a new and wildly different role. Since pictures were first released of her wearing the silver Captain Phasma suit, we've been wondering what role this new antagonist will have to play in the Star Wars story. 

9. Cute Robots 

R2-D2 and C-3PO are two of the most iconic and well loved characters of the franchise, so it only seemed right to add a brand new addition to the droid family in the newest film! The best part about loveable new robot BB-8, is that it is actually real! The technology was shown off at the Star Wars Celebration, where JJ Abrams invited the droid on stage to the amazement of the audience.

10. The Mystery of a New Plot

The final reason we're so excited for the new film, is simply due to the fact that we know so little about it! Although the names of many new and returning characters have been released, along with several trailers, we know virtually nothing about the new plot (a rare thing in cinema these days). Unless you've been trawling fan sites for info, most of the new content should be a (hopefully) pleasant surprise for all of us!
