About Imperial Holocron
Imperial Holocron began as a basic collecting blog, with very
infrequent updates, in 2004. We ran that way until late
2005 when a concerted effort was made to turn the collecting
blog into a news website, mainly following the collecting hobby
surrounding the Star Wars Saga.
We gained momentum through the Spring of 2006, covering Toy
Fair with reports on Hasbro, Gentle Giant and Sideshow along
with other, smaller license holders. In June of 2006 the
current domain name, ImperialHolocron.com, was registered and
new graphics and layout were applied.
Throughout 2006 we continued to add news coverage of various
events such as Wizard World Philadelphia and San Diego
Comic-Con. Our "Around Town" feature on local collectibles
became the semi-regular "Around the Toy Aisle" feature where we
offer a snapshot of what collectible toys, not just Star Wars,
are available at the local, and sometimes not so local, retail
stores.
Continuing a tradition started in 2001 on the PSWCS listserv,
we offer a Best and Worst feature at the end of each year where
we re-cap various Star Wars collectibles and events that we feel
deserve recognition, or derision as the case may be.
Moving forward, we continue to cover events such as Toy Fair,
Wizard World, Comic-Con and the Star Wars Celebrations as
well as other events as they occur. We will be moving into
our fifth year in June 2010 and hope continue covering Star
Wars collecting in all its forms.
