Yet another free trial of Hyperspace (this one for 14 days) is available on the 2nd disc of RotS. Just pop the disc in your PC and explore "My Computer" for Charlotte Disc2. -Campbell

Hyperspace variety | #1 | ||
|
Variety online seems to be an added feature of Hyperspace. Under the Member's Exclusives button you can now link to most articles that even vaguely pertain to the world of Star Wars / Lucasfilm, etc. Nice.

Re: Audiocasts | #2 | ||
|
One of my favorite features on Hyperspace is its collection of Audiocasts. The Magic of Myth tour is possibly my most prized Audiocast dowload, but the recent Vintage Radio commercials and interviews have been fantastic too. For those who've not heard them the Wondercolumn bits by Anthony Daniels (released a few years ago as a Fan Club CD) are truly insightful on the filming of the Trilogy. -Campbell

My membership runs out towards the end of March. I will probably renew. My favorite parts are the old school comics, at the Sith Snapshots. I haven't taken the time time to listen to all of the audio casts, but what I have heard, they are really neat.

Campbell for President | #4 | ||
|
If you're not a member of Hyperspace and happen to join between now and the middle of April, can I have you as a referral? If you are already a member, feel free to take advantage of this contest for yourself.

I'm debating about extending my membership. I don't get as much use out of it as I thought I would (I prefer forums like this more), but once in a while they have a nice exclusive you can buy at StarWarsShop.

small Hyperspace perk | #10 | ||
|
This is not huge, but it was something I'd like to see more of. In conjunction with an article about the Episodes I-III editions of Cinefex magazine, Hyperspace gave 10 random Hyperspace members each a set of the three magazines. source.
Also, I can't seem to find any info on how the contest for President works. They said return on the 15th for details on how people could refer others, but so far, no update. Sigh. |

Re: small Hyperspace perk | #11 | ||

Just a quick question for those that might know more about the insider magazine and hyperspace than me. When we purchased hyperspace, did we get the mag for the length of out membership or was it only for like 6 mags? I haven't gotten one lately

Insider sub | #12 | ||
|
To my knowledge, despite little snafus during the ownership changes, your Hyperspace subscription should include six bi-monthly issues of the Insider. I received mine, #86, the middle of this week.

Re: Insider sub | #13 | ||

I gave up as a subscriber, but who knows when they will offer some kind of "exclusive" to lure collectors back in. I really never used the HyperSpace part of the site at all.

Re: Insider sub | #14 | ||

I believe the insider magazine was only for 6 issues while the hyperspace membership lasted longer.

Lucas interview, Winter '89 | #15 | ||
|
Hyperspace has an interview with George Lucas from a 1989 issue of the LucasFilm Fan Club magazine. It's worth a look. The interviewer's no great shakes, but Lucas's answers are interesting as a snapshot on his career at the moment.

Quote: There's a contest going on for the next few weeks to see who can recruit the most new members. If you'd like to list me as your referrer I'd really appreciate it (sabacc@wookiee.com). Join now! For more information consult the Hyperspace FAQ. You can also opt for asix-month subscription, though I'm not sure you'll be able to refer me and it doesn't include the membership kit. |

Hey Campbell, I will refer you. I just signed up for another year of Hyperspace. I just need to figure out where I refer you at.

Re: Join the Empire! | #18 | ||

I think it must be done at the time of subscription or renewal. No big whoop, I'm just glad to have another person to talk Fan Club with.

Re: Join the Empire! | #19 | ||

Yeah I feeel that it is worth the 40.00 a year for the membership. I was wondering why I quit getting my Insider mags but I then remembered that you only get 6 with the membership to Hyperspace. Does any know where you can suscribe for a year to the magazine? Sorry Sabacc, if I would have known to refer before I signed up I would have. You trying to become fanclub president? I think I saw a contest that the person who gets the most people to join is the new president. Walt If you will not fight, then you will meet your destiny.

Quote:Yup, though the odds of me successfully doing so are approximately 3,720 to 1. Quote:The Insider is currently bi-monthly so your yearlong subscription to Hyperspace includes an issue every two months for the duration of your subscription. There was some malarkey during the last couple of ownership changes where the magazine and the Fan Club were not wholly related. Your subscription may have gotten out of order in that hubbub. |
