Control the most advanced starfighters and outstanding pilots in the galaxy! In X-Wing Miniatures Game, you take the role of squad leader and command a group of merciless Imperial or daring Rebel pilots in furious ship-to-ship space combat. Featuring stunningly detailed and painted miniatures, X-Wing recreates exciting Star Wars space battles from small engagements of only a couple of crafts, to large conflicts where multiple squadrons clash. Select and equip your ships, pick your crew, plan your attack, and complete your mission.

Spring has sprung!
And I mean it this time! Forecast looks good for the next week or two, and it seems like the nice weather is going to hang around.
So why not celebrate - dash into our Patisserie for a cheery springtime cupcake, then dash back out and enjoy that sunshine and warmth.
(And while you're in, see our Bicycle display near the Patisserie and catch up on some bike books to make sure you get the most out of your riding this Summer.)

Today is May 4th, which also means it's STAR WARS Day!
Around the world, fans of the six films (and the entire culture that's been built around them) are rejoicing and celebrating in a variety of ways. Restaurants are preparing Star Wars-themed meals, friends and family are setting down to watch the films marathon-style, and places like Disney World are setting up massive events and festivities to run all day.
At McNally Robinson, we're celebrating the Star Wars saga in the same way that we always do - with plenty of Star Wars-themed merch! Because with us, everyday is Star Wars Day.
Of course we've got Star Wars books - in fact, we've got an entire shelf dedicated to them.
But books are only the tip of the sarlaac's maw. Look after the jump to see more of the Star Wars fun we have in store...
