Q: What do I do with the Jedi Master Points on toy packaging?

A: Add flour and water and turn them into a papier-mâché dewback? String them end to end and use them to trim your next Christmas tree? When it gets really cold, use them as kindling for the fireplace? Send thousands of them to Hasbro corporate headquarters and let them figure out what to do with them?

Actually, the question of what to do with these little rectangles on the back of Hasbro's figures and other Star Wars toy packaging is probably the single most-asked question sent to Star Wars Insider's "Scouting the Galaxy" column -- and also to Hasbro. And the answer is that Hasbro, after working through many business and legal issues, has made much progress in coming up with a cool answer of what to do with Jedi Master Points.

"It has taken longer than we would have liked," notes Jeff Popper, Hasbro's director of marketing for Star Wars. Hasbro is hoping to be able to announce its plans in the not too-distant future, once every element is worked out. My advice: round up as many of those ubiquitous Points as you can, and stay tuned!
