Didn't see this one coming...

The new Scalextric 2012 catalogue is out.  I promise this is genuine - there's a new tie-in for Scalextric... with Star Wars!

Two new sets will be available later this year - "Death Star Attack" in micro 1:64 scale...


..and "Battle Of Endor" in the usual 1:32 scale...


Hopefully Darth Maul won't be on the final box artwork since he's got nothing to do with the original (proper) trilogy but I am impressed they went for "A New Hope" and "Return of the Jedi" themes rather than little Anakin in his pod racer.  It's almost like they've designed this to appeal to kids who grew up in the 70s and 80s ;-)

May the Force be with you.
