Here’s this week’s Star Wars podcasts in review.

501stCast: Episode 77 catches up on all the news from the 501st Legion and includes an awesome interview with author Ryder Windham who talks about the Death Star Owner’s Technical Manual.

Bombad Radio: Episode 103 features audio from Salt Lake Comic Con 2013 and the Ray Park panel. Ray talks about playing Toad in the X-Men movies, Darth Maul, Snake Eyes and how he got started in Mortal Kombat Annihilation which actually led to his gig as Darth Maul. Really good audio and some nice comments from Ray who even touches on Star Wars Episode VII.

Episode 98 features more audio from Salt Lake Comic Con 2013, this time covering the William Shatner panel. I had initially passed this episode over in order to catch up with other podcasts, but when I finally got the chance to listen to it, I was thoroughly entertained. Shatner puts on a good show and his panel is pretty fun to listen to. Whether you’re a fan of Star Trek or not, it’s worth a listen.

Star Wars: Frames was a super rare book set that retailed for around $3,000 with just 1,138 copies being made. The set included six books and a display case which weight a whopping 210 lbs. There was one book for each movie, and each was filled with photo stills from the films. (Sideshow still has a page with the product details here)

For Star Wars fans who missed out, or for those whose pockets aren’t quite as deep, there will now be a paperback version which is currently available for pre-order on Amazon. It’s listed at 736 pages and with a November 1, 2013 release. The price is just $150. If you’re a hard core collector, this may be the opportunity you’ve been waiting for.

Thanks to Rebelscum.com for the heads up.
