If you look down the list of a month's distributor orders for West End Games' Star Wars® RPG, you come to one gigantic figure from a company you've never heard of. This turns out to be two gift shops in Disneyland and Walt Disney World, located right outside the Star Tours rides based on the Star Wars movies. These two stores sell more copies of the RPG than any regional distributor. Maybe they'll do the same with Decipher's Star Wars®: Customizable Card Game. Using imagination, other publishers can discover similar gold mines. It's a big world. —Allen Varney
