No, it's Dr. Grace Augustine from Avatar."

The fact that you had to clarify where she’s from is proof that it’s not her.

Uniform's not torn.

If people have patience to buy these (overpriced) sets a few days they can get May 4th promos!

The cheapest one is $44.99? That is really too expensive.

When there's more discussion about Avatar than the other franchise, you know the other franchise is in trouble

The Filoniverse is not that popular.

I think all these sets are great.These are my May 4th sets. Looking forward to the new movie. Dave Filoni’s been solid IMHO

Update: Not going to get the AT-RT set. Swap that set out for the Brickheadz Mando/Grogu set! Then that’s my May 1st list! Happy Lego building all!

I love that movie.

Anzellan Starship should have been WAY cheaper. Thankfully I had a luck to get it 30% off on presales.

I'm so excited for that movie.

wait... is that zeb from rebels!?!?!?

The DVD had the best menu option ever: "Omega 13." If you selected it, it said, "Access denied. You don't want to give away the ending, do you?" My copy was stolen, and I haven't yet checked to see if the Blu-Ray I got as a replacement has the same joke.

That's awesome! I have the Blu-Ray, and it doesn't have that option :(

Ah, so you never tried clicking on that same menu option _after_ watching the movie, then? Pity.

Did I say that? It just gives you the same thing.

No, it doesn’t. If you watch the entire film, and then click on the Omega 13 option, it does something special. But you have to watch the entire film right before clicking on it.

Oh. Well, since I don't have the DVD any more, would you mind telling me what it does?

I don't have time to sit through the entire movie right now, so I'm going entirely off of memory, but if you hit the Omega 13 button immediately after the movie finishes and dumps you back to the menu screen, it rewinds the movie. I don't remember if it rewinds it to the beginning, or if it only rewinds partway. I also don't remember if you have to let the entire film play through at normal speed, if you can FFWD through the entire thing, or if you can use Scene Selection to get you to the end credits. Pretty sure if you select any other option when the film ends, it reverts to the starter menu screen and you'd have to watch the entire film _again_ to prime the system.

So, you need to watch the film first, or the egg itself really will spoil the movie (hence the initial warning), and the egg is topical since it (sorta) achieves what the Omega 13 does. It is not, however a cool enough easter egg that I'd consider it to be worth chasing down an original copy just to experience it. If you know someone local with a copy, borrowing it wouldn't be a terrible idea.

@TheOtherMike said:

Eh, looks like I was slightly misremembering things. I pulled the DVD out again. You can shortcut it by using Scene Select to start the End Credits and FFWD to the end, but you do have to let the DVD exit out of the film back to the menu screen. Unlike when the DVD first loads, it will transition back to the menu screen with a clip of the NSEA Protector at the very end of the film, flying away from the camera. At this point, if you click the Omega 13 menu option, you'll get a quick bit of the "black hole", a glimpse of the Omega 13 activating, then it will play that same clip (with sound) in reverse before replaying the clip and dumping you back to the menu screen. And it appears that once you've exited out of the film itself, even bouncing around to different menu screens will keep bringing you back to the secondary menu screen where the Omega 13 still works.

I got my Razor Crest and Anzellan Starship today. :)
