New to Blue Milk Special? Start reading from the beginning!

The 501st New England Garrison has some very enterprising and ambitious members as you’ll see in the video below. Meet their Jabba the Hutt puppet–the crazy idea of 501st members Mark and Brian. Their life-size Jabba puppet has gained a bit of attention on YouTube–and deservedly so!

He’s become so popular that Blue Milk Special now joins a number of websites, blogs and tweets in mentioning him. Apparently this deluge of internet hits was enough to get the NEG’s site shut down! Wait a minute… that’s not what we’re trying to do! Anyway, check out the the 501NEG’s Jabba the Hutt website and “like” their Facebook page while you’re at it.

Blue Milk Special passes 1000 fans on Facebook!

Speaking of Facebook, thank you to everyone who helped us pass the milestone of 1000 fans. I always feel weird about people on Facebook turning it into some sort of popularity contest, but this was really a long time coming for us. There are a great deal of Star Wars fan pages on Facebook and many of them well over 1000 (including other fan creations like ourselves). Having taken so long to really build a following, it’s nice to have the feeling that we might not be as awful as we sometimes think. I’m not kidding either. When you’re writing something that YOU think is funny, there’s always the fear that you’ll be the only one laughing.

The Geeks of Doom blog site (also with their own Facebook fan page) wrote a review about Blue Milk Special which you can read on their site. We haven’t had many reviews and its always a thrill to read one which doesn’t tear us to pieces for our somewhat unorthodox and chronological parody of the films and spin-off material. Thanks Geeks of Doom!
