Goofy as Darth Vader has taken Jedi Mickey as Luke Skywalker to Emperor Stitches observation tower on the Death Star. Where The Emperor attempts to turn Luke to the dark side of the Force and replace Darth Vader as his new apprentice. The Emperor instigates a vicious lightsaber battle between Darth Vader and Luke after taunting and goading the young Jedi. Luke gave into his anger after Vader threatened Leia and managed to overpower him. Yet when The Emperor ordered Luke to kill Vader, and becoming a Sith Luke refused. The Emperor again asked Luke to join him and rule the galaxy side-by-side with him but Luke denies the offer, affirming his identity as a Jedi. Furious that he had failed to turn Luke to the dark side The Emperor says, "So be it, Jedi" and unleashes deadly force lightning on Luke, nearly killing him. The injured Vader, conflicted between his master and his son. While The Emperor is attacking Luke with a barrage of Force Lightning Darth Vader saves Luke by hurling the Emperor into the Death Star's reactor shaft, ending the Order of the Sith Lords. With the Dark Lord dead and his apprentice redeemed. The Emperor is Stitch watching this duel in the center, while in the foreground both left and right corners you see the hands of both Darth Vader (Goofy) and Luke (Jedi Mickey Mouse) each with their respective lightsabers crossed in the duel that the Emperor is relishing. This Stitch as the Emperor in "So Be It, Jedi" sold out and is very unique with historical significance making it especially important item to all Star Wars, Disney and Star Wars Weekends fans, attendees and collectors. For years after the start of Star Wars Weekends Disney artists wanted to create Star Wars and Disney character mash up illustrations but could not as they needed Lucas's permission, eventually they received his permission. And this Star Wars mash up figure illustration was personally approved by George Lucas. A few years later Disney purchased LucasFilm Ltd. After purchase of LucasFilm, ironically in 2015 at D-23 Disney announced the end to the combo or mash up Disney Star Wars figures and illustrations, apparently due to LucasFilm's decision not to permit them. So we have come full circle now with LucasFilm deciding what Disney does with regards to Star Wars. This Disney Star Wars Weekends Stitch as the Emperor in "So Be It, Jedi" now is retired in so many ways. Because the announcement August 2015 by Disney of the end of Star Wars mash ups including figures, logos, illustrations and characters and with the official termination of the Star Wars Weekends announced November 9th, 2015 that makes this Disney Star Wars Mash Up illustration Stitch as the Emperor in "So Be It, Jedi" released during Star Wars Weekends rare (an historical figure so to speak) with no more mash ups and no more Star Wars Weekends that makes this Stitch as the Emperor in "So Be It, Jedi" signed during the Star Wars Weekends 2013 & 2014 event rare and a very unique illustration. Ray Park (Darth Maul the Emperors Secret Apprentice), Sam Witwer (Voice of Darth Maul from the Clone Wars) & Matt Lanter (Voice of Anakin Skywalker from the Clone Wars) autographed it and wrote Star Wars Weekends 2013 & 2014 which is rare and increases its special uniqueness, value and therefore their desirability to any Star Wars, Disney or Star Wars Weekends attendee or collector now and into the future. The deeper effect of new order star wars In addition it now seems likely that Disney and LucasFilms, which controls the new Star Wars film franchise, will focus on and promote a different agenda with characters they have and will invent. This will most likely reform the Star Wars franchise at Disney as it will be using the movies and animation series characters which they invented and which will be designed to promote new LucasFilms Ltd and Disney world view which will most help their corporations with their world concepts effecting the future. This most likely will increase demand for the George Lucas's Classic Star Wars character items approved by him, from the original trilogies and those with original Star Wars actors' autographs and mash up action and character figures, cels, prints, medium big figurines, posters and illustrations etc from Star Wars Weekends. The legends of the specialness of this ultimate magical event for Star Wars fans who made the pilgrimage to attend from all over the world will surely grow as time passes and the availability of items from the Star Wars Weekends events will become increasingly rare. It marks the end of both the creative genius of the George Lucas Star Wars era and the magical Disney Star Wars Weekends era too. This illustration is from both the George Lucas Star Wars era and the amazing Disney Star Wars Weekends events era. Stitch as the Emperor in "So Be It, Jedi" was personally approved by George Lucas before he sold LucasFilm which makes it rare and more desirable for collectors as time passes, as no more items from either of those two eras can be produced. Hang it on your wall in your collection and you will be able to enjoy your investment in this beauty as it appreciates over the years and will be a classic and sought after artwork for all serious Star Wars, Disney, and Star Wars Weekends attendees, fans and collectors.
