Toyfare: The Toy Magazine #96

A squad of Imperial troopers takes a bizarre detour from their usual duties, filming a recruitment video that quickly goes off the rails when they’re asked to milk a dewback. Sent on a strange mission to deliver a roster of Star Wars Expanded Universe characters—including Jar-Jar Binks, Wicket, and Teebo—they’re greeted by Xizor on a remote planet, enjoy a surprisingly questionable Ewok meal, and pick up a mysterious robot that might just replace them all. Written by Pat McCallum, Zach Oat, Justin Aclin, Jon Gutierrez, Andrew Kardon, and Chris Ward, this offbeat issue from Toyfare: The Toy Magazine #96 (2005) is a delightfully absurd, self-aware romp through Star Wars lore.
