The Force Is With You -- Really. Just Ask.

by Scott Steinberg

The Star Wars saga is finally complete, but your collection isn’t without the Call Upon Yoda from Hasbro. The foot-tall animatronic doll’s mouth and body move as it tells stories, plays trivia, and voices 500-plus phrases. Ask it any yes or no question and get an answer. Sample query: “Will this invention make Lucas filthy rich?” $30. www.hasbro.com — S.S.
