Hey folks, not sure if this is the place to post about it but it's as good as any, so...

Does anyone here subscribe to the Star Wars Insider?

I'm looking for someone who would be willing to share Vader: The Ultimate Guide and the short story In His Image, as well as the Guide to the GAR, the Mandalorians and anything on the Clones, with me.

it's impossible to get these on back order, ebay is not being helpful, and I simply want to be able to read these few articles and stories.

So anyone willing to scan these for me and send me a copy.... I'd be eternally helpful.

I've got a few holes in my Insider collection, but I probably have what you're looking for and I do have a scanner. If you could give me the issue numbers I could go through my Insiders this weekend and see if I've got what you need. But I doubt I'll be able to find anything for you until this weekend.

Hmmmm... let me see...

There is a standalone tie-in called Vader: The Ultimate Guide, but I can't figure out when that came out. There's a story in there called In his Image - that I need.
#84 - Guide to the Grand Army of the Republic
#85 - Short Story: A Two-edged Sword
#86 - The Mandalorians: People and Culture
#93 - Article: Part of the Language

I'm booked solid with the kids this afternoon and I've got a softball and baseball game Saturday. I should be able to go through my Insiders Sat. night or afternoon. It'll actually give me an excuse to get them organized. I should have something for you Sat. night.

No worries, I'm the patient sort. Spent so much time trying to hunt these down in other ways before now, a day or two don't matter.

Oh, if you'd be kind enough to send them to me at mara.mcduff@gmail.com ?

Done. That Vader story by Traviss was added to the paperback version of LOTF: Betrayal (according to Wookiepedia.) So if you've got a mega bookstore nearby I'd just go, grab a copy and a seat and read it at my leisure.

Hmmm.... I got the 3rd one. The others seem to have got lost on the way? Probably my gmail account didn't like more than 9MB, but that's a bit odd...

And yeah I know about the story being in Betrayal, but unfortunately bookstores over here don't carry Star Wars books in English (I'm in Germany) so I can't do that. You have no idea how much I wish I could though...... *sigh*

Yeah, I got a message saying they were too big. Tell me which ones didn't go through and I'll break them up. BTW, DelRay is offering a free download of Betrayal for a couple of weeks. It might have the Vader story included.

Nope, it doesn't - I'm reading it as we speak. It's essentially a copy of the Hardback edition, with an excerpt of Bloodlines in it.

All I got was the email called Insider 3, with the article about the Language.

Sorry, but we've been swamped over here. I'm trying again, a couple of pages at a time. It probably still won't work. I guess I'll have to compress or zip them or something like that.

I got most of the Mando article except for 3+4 :)
