Toyfare: The Toy Magazine #121

In this festive 2007 issue of Toyfare: The Toy Magazine, Chewbacca returns home late for Life Day, only to realize he forgot to get Malla a gift—leading to a heartfelt, chaotic shopping spree that involves a droid swap, a rejected plea to Bea Arthur, and a surprisingly emotional transaction involving Han Solo’s location and a bandolier’s polish. With help from Lumpy, Itchy, and a surprise return from Saunn Dann, the holiday takes an unexpected turn as the group gathers to sing, but not before a moment that leaves everyone stunned. The issue, written by Zach Oat, Justin Aclin, Jon Gutierrez, Sean T. Collins, and Chris Ward, captures a uniquely offbeat Star Wars holiday tale with warmth and whimsy, all wrapped in a cover by the magazine’s team.
