Hi Tasty!
2 short questions:
Could you tell me if the names of the Imperial advisors in this image are correct? I'm familiar with Sim Aloo and Janus Greejatus from the CCG and Pestage from the X-wing comics. But where do the other two names come from?
Also, I heard you once confimed that the reborn Palpatine was actually lying to Luke when he told him his death at Endor wasn't the first time he died. Is that true?

There's conflicting sources about the death of Boga. The film and the comic leave it ambiguous, where the novel states that she is dead. So, what's up? Is Boga really dead, or is she alive?

I believe it is supposed to be the same Panaka from Ep I. Seems he went to work for the Empire in the end - the dastard!

In Complete Locations the article about the Emepror's tower on the Death Star II it shows a statue given to him by a long time freind a follower Moff Panaka. Is this the same Panaka from Episode I or a relation?

I've noticed Decipher copied Jabba's Palace Nikto characters, who now are known by two names.
< Yeah ... that was because Decipher did a lot of guessing at the end of their work. If the Nikto aren't easy enough, this only complicates it ...

And also: in Empire at War, Antilles raids Wayland in O BBY. Can you clear this up being Wayland was discovered in 9 ABY?

In the video game Star Wars: Obi-Wan, the Queen is kidnapped by Tusken Raiders on Tatooine and must be saved by Obi-Wan. I'm not sure whether the kidnapped Queen is actually Amidala, or just Sabé in disguise.
Either way, is the storyline of the game C-canon? And if so, who was the kidnapped Queen really?

Snake Plissken Katarn:
Quick question. Thanks to Master Zahn, can we now officially refer to Stacy Pink 5 as a canon character?
Stacy exists. All facts about her established in Allegiance exist. Everything else about her from fanfilms that aren't in the book remain fan material.

Hey Leland, I had heard that this was the place to clear up continuity questions. My question is: I had heard that Darth Maul was "resurrected" several times in the Star Wars Tales series. The problem is, all of the issues before 20-21 are now considered Infinities, though with varying levels of "canonosity". Which of his "resurrections" are considered canon? Or is non of them canon? Thanx

Isn't the Tri-droid from Ep. III much taller than 3.7 meters, as described in the databank?
That's why they're described as "scalable."
The out of universe explanation is that in the age of CG, trying to figure out exact dimensions based on film shots can drive you crazy because things get resized for the sole purpose of looking pretty in the composition of a shot. So a vehicle might have certain dimensions in one shot and different dimensions in another shot. When the CG model is created, the artists come up with approximate dimensions. Lacking any harder calculations from the films, we often go with the artists' original dimensions.

Hey, Leland, are the commanding officers giving you orders in Battlefront II Appo and Bow?
Is it Deviss who is killed hunting down Tsui Choi in Star Wars: Purge?
Can you clear up the contradictions between Labryinth of Evil and Clone Wars?

I've noticed Decipher copied Jabba's Palace Nikto characters, who now are known by two names.
Klaatu was given the Bizarro World Yotts Orren.
Similarly Nysad has also been named Lathe, while the "Vintage Nikto action figure characters remains unnamed.

It's since been discovered that Dark Lord refers to him as head of "Internal Security Bureau" which is different to the "Imperial Security Bureau".

Is Armand Isard's position in Dark Lord as ISB chief a mistake, or deliberate?

IG-88C and D were both destroyed in Tatooine's orbit. Fett finishes C off first, who has already been waiting for Slave I's arrival, then D jumps out of hyperspace to try his luck, but his ship is blown apart, too.
The New Essential Guide to Characters says "...IG-88D survived the explosion, and limped to Ord Mantell, where Dash Rendar finished him off."
