When it comes to being nerdy with style, the folks at Heroes & Villains have a sleek assembly of clothing and gear that make it easy to show your love for your favorite movies and TV shows without overdoing it. They’ve long been a staple of our massive holiday gift guides for years, and we featured a killer “Deadpool & Wolverine” collection in 2024. Basically, they’ve always got something cool to make getting dressed up or going on vacation feel like an adventure, especially if it’s to a galaxy far, far away.
Today, Heroes & Villains has unveiled a new collection of “Star Wars” gear for the traveler who always seems to be moving at lightspeed, and we’re happy to exclusively debut the new items right here at /Film.
There’s a new trio of duffle bags with designs inspired by the Jedi, the Rebel Alliance, and the Galactic Empire. Plus, for those who like to keep their toiletries neatly organized instead of jumbled around like some kind of scruffy-looking nerf herder, there’s also a trio of toiletry bags (or dopp kits) that match each duffle bag perfectly. After all, no one wants to be caught on Cloud City without matching travel gear. Am I right, folks?
Take a closer look at each of the new “Star Wars” travel gear options that are available to order for Heroes & Villains starting today!
Duffle bags for smuggling or day trips to Coruscant
Heroes & Villains
First up, we have the three new Trudger Duffle Bags with designs inspired by the Jedi, Rebels, and the Empire. Each bag measures 20.5″ W X 12″ H X 12″ D, and they all have plenty of compartments for keeping everything organized, from your deodorant to your lightsaber. The top panel features an exterior zip pocket for easy access for things like keys or boarding passes and passports.
Heroes & Villains
Meanwhile, for those taking this back to a gym on Geonosis, there’s a separate shoe compartment so you don’t have to keep your clothes and sneakers in the same place. There are even vents in the shoe compartment, so you don’t have to worry about the bag smelling like a garbage masher on the detention level of the Death Star. Was that a long way to go for this reference? Sure, but I don’t care. I did it just for me.
Heroes & Villains
The interior also has a PVC pocket that make it easy to store wet swimsuits or sweaty socks, so you don’t have to worry about getting anything else in your bag wet. The back panel has a mesh pocket for towels or yoga mats (not Yoda mats). Finally, the bottom is made out of a rubberized, coated poly to keep the bag from falling apart, and it’s also easy to wipe clean.
Each bag costs $120, and they’re available to order at Heroes & Villains today.
The barrel toiletry bag is for the galaxy traveler
Heroes & Villains
Meanwhile, packing up the essentials in your barrel toiletry bag is going to make you feel like the most efficient traveler in the galaxy. Sized at 9″ W X 5″ H X 5″ D, the bag is small enough to be convenient but big enough to hold everything you need for a quick trip. First of all, the outside has a utility clip, so you can just hang it outside of any bag, rather than taking up valuable space inside any other bag.
Heroes & Villains
The larger side handle make it easy to cary from place to place, and you can hold on tighter with the webbing handle, in case you find yourself in a wretched hive of scum and villainy where the only currency is a good minty toothpaste. Inside, there are elastic straps to hold razors and toothbrushes, as well as two mesh slide pockets.
Heroes & Villains
Of course, the designs of each bag are made to go perfectly with the corresponding duffle bag of your choice. If you’re a Rebel spy, maybe you’ll want to hide your toiletry bag inside the Imperial duffle bag. Perhaps you can provide a little social commentary where the Jedi toiletry kit fits inside that of the Rebellion. Either way, you can’t go wrong with these functional and stylish “Star Wars” travel bags.
Each barrel toiletry bag will cost $36, and they’re available at Heroes & Villains right now.

OSgrid’s LBSA Plaza is the cross-roads of the hypergrid and a popular virtual hangout for developers, region owners, and metaverse travelers.
OSgrid has entered emergency long-term maintenance after discovering that “all IAR files have been corrupted,” the grid announced yesterday.
This is really bad news for residents who hadn’t yet had time to get their inventory backups downloaded ahead of the grid’s previously announced March 21 database reset. OSgrid will now go into immediate and indefinite closure.
“Unfortunately, the current situation has become unsustainable,” the OSgrid team stated in their announcement. “After careful analysis, it has become clear that it is no longer viable to keep OSgrid online under these conditions.”
The corruption of IAR — inventory archive — files is significant as many residents were using these files to back up their inventories ahead of the planned asset wipe. Users who hadn’t already secured their content through alternative methods may now face permanent losses.
Complete rebuild planned
In light of the new problems, the grid’s administrators have decided to completely rebuild the asset system from scratch.
Assets can include objects, clothing, textures, and other items that grid residents store in their avatar inventories. Some assets might have been purchased from OpenSim content creators and can represent a financial investment. Other assets might have been created from scratch by users, representing time, effort, and creativity. As a result, some residents might be hit hard by the loss.
“We have decided to completely rebuild the assets in a new format, in order to resolve ongoing issues and provide a much more robust and sustainable infrastructure,” the announcement stated.
Unlike the previous timeline that promised a March 28 return, the team now describes the reconstruction as “lengthy and meticulous” with no specific reopening date provided.
“We intend to take the necessary time to ensure the result is stable, functional, and, most importantly, secure,” the OSgrid team stated.
Impact on OpenSim users
This sudden closure accelerates the timeline for OSgrid users who had been planning to back up their content. Users who had been creating OARs — OpenSim archive files — of their regions or transferring items to avatars on other grids will no longer be able to access their content.
The situation particularly affects users who:
Had scheduled backups in the coming days or weeks
Were relying on the grid’s IAR export tool
Had placed items in the dedicated storage regions set up for the transition
For the broader OpenSim ecosystem, this emergency closure may increase migration pressure on other grids that had been preparing for a gradual influx of displaced users.
Kitely CEO Ilan Tochner also warns that other grids may suffer from similar data issues as they become popular and may need to revisit their backup policies.
“You have to maintain daily backups of the entire system to enable you to restore it to the last stable state,” he told Hypergrid Business. “If you don’t do this and only rely on data duplication then when a corruption occurs you won’t have uncorrupted copies of the files to restore to.”
Kitely runs daily backups for all its systems, he said, and enables Kitely region owners to request their regions be restored from those backups for any reason. This helps people recover from building accidents without needing to manually back up their regions to OAR files.
“If you’re an OSGrid user who has just lost their home, I recommend you consider the data backup policies of the grid you decide to move to,” Tochner said. “The more people use a grid the more likely it will need to make use of those backup systems.”
Kitely, the third-largest grid by land area, also serves as OpenSim’s main content marketplace.
There are currently 20,954 product listings in Kitely Market containing 41,054 product variations, 35,814 of which are exportable to other grids. Kitely Market users can have their purchases automatically delivered to avatars on other grids. Kitely Market has delivered orders to 642 OpenSim grids to date, Tochner said.
Kitely Market also provides merchants with a tool that can help their customers regain items that were bought for avatars that belong to grids that have shut down or suffered inventory loss, he said.
Volunteer support
OSgrid is operated entirely by volunteers and the management asked for community understanding during this difficult period. “It is important to remember that OSgrid is run by volunteers, all of whom are deeply passionate and committed to the platform. However, it’s also important to keep in mind that our team consists of real people, parents, and professionals with lives outside of their roles within OSgrid.”
The team promised to provide regular updates on their progress but gave no indication of how frequently these updates would come or through which channels.
OSgrid’s history of challenges
This isn’t the first major disruption for OSgrid. In 2014 and 2015, the grid experienced an extended outage lasting several months, during which significant amounts of user data were lost.
The current situation appears potentially more serious, as the grid is undergoing a complete rebuild of its asset system rather than attempting to repair existing infrastructure.
OSgrid, founded in 2007, has served as both a social hub and a technical testing ground for OpenSim development. As one of the largest hypergrid-enabled virtual worlds, its extended absence will be felt throughout the OpenSim ecosystem.
For users affected by this closure, other OpenSim grids including Wolf Territories, Kitely, and Alternate Metaverse have previously offered assistance in accommodating displaced residents.

Square Enix partnership may expand to other franchises beyond Final Fantasy. Final Fantasy characters will enter Magic: The Gathering universe in 2025. Potential for more Square Enix collaborations with Magic: The Gathering in the future.
Magic: The Gathering may be embarking on crossovers with more Square Enix franchises than Final Fantasy, as the partnership has the scope to expand to different series owned by the legendary Japanese studio.
2025 will see Final Fantasy characters enter the Magic: The Gathering multiverse, through a Standard-legal set that is poised to be one of the game’s biggest crossovers to date.

Magic: The Gathering x Final Fantasy Sets Already Sold Out & Put On Ebay
Many of the pre-orders for the Magic: The Gathering x Final Fantasy sets are already sold out and up on eBay.
It bears mentioning that the crossover is limited to mainline Final Fantasy games. This means no spin-off titles, like the beloved Final Fantasy Tactics, or games that have crossed over with Final Fantasy in the past, like Dragon Quest.
The door hasn’t closed on more Square Enix collaborations in the future, as Wizards of the Coast franchise VP Rebecca Shepard discussed with Gamespot that fans could see more crossovers in the future.
Square Enix Is Open To More Magic: The Gathering Crossovers
Shepard talked about the current relationship between Wizards of the Coast and Square Enix. “I don’t think there’s ever an end to any partnership. Even if the product is done and we don’t reprint it anymore because the term of the contract expired, we still stay in contact.”
Shepard continued, “So much like any other partnership, we can revisit it like we revisit our own worlds. I’m not confirming something is in the works here, but it’s likely a matter of ‘when,’ not ‘if.'”

D&D’s Next Magic: The Gathering Crossover Is Set In Lorwyn-Shadowmoor
The next Dungeons & Dragons x Magic: The Gathering crossover book takes players to Lorwyn-Shadowmoor.
The big question is – what Square Enix franchises would make for great Magic: The Gathering crossovers? In Japan, that answer would be Dragon Quest, but that series isn’t as big internationally and might not be seen as much of a draw.
While many people would think Kingdom Hearts is the next logical step, the big issue is that it’s co-owned by Disney, which has its own card game that it’s promoting, so it might not be as willing to play ball for a crossover.
Square Enix has a ton of smaller franchises that could step up, but none that would fit as well as Final Fantasy does in Magic: The Gathering.

In Brief
Aave’s Stani Kulechov announced the proposal to launch sGHO, a low-risk savings product, introducing the Aave Savings Rate.
Founder and CEO of the decentralized finance (DeFi) lending protocol Aave, Stani Kulechov announced the proposal to launch the sGHO savings product, introducing the Aave Savings Rate (ASR).
sGHO is a new low-risk savings product that allows users to earn yield on GHO, based on Aave’s native lending rate and an incentivized rate partially derived from GHO borrowing revenue. There are no deposit or withdrawal fees associated with it.
Stani Kulechov highlighted that he anticipates sGHO to increase GHO’s outstanding value to between 300M and 500M. For context, each 100M GHO generates the same revenue for the Aave DAO as 1B USDC. The introduction of sGHO will provide Aave users with a stable on-chain savings rate and serve as an attractive entry point for new users into the Aave ecosystem.
Aave is proposing to create sGHO savings product by introducing Aave Savings Rate (ASR).
sGHO is a new low-end risk profile savings product for earning yield on GHO based on native aave lending rate and incentivized rate collected partially from GHO borrow revenue. No withdrawal…
— Stani.eth (@StaniKulechov) March 5, 2025
According to the proposal, Aave’s GHO stablecoin has experienced strong growth in 2025, now ranking as the 20th largest stablecoin. While growth has been consistent so far, increasing from 200M to over 300M presents new challenges that will require a different strategy.
The stkGHO token rewards users for contributing to the protocol’s security, and has played a key role in GHO’s growth, currently representing 67% of its circulating supply. Following the Umbrella upgrade, stkGHO will remain essential to Aave Protocol’s security and is expected to adjust in size to align with the protocol’s security requirements.
By aligning the size of stkGHO with Aave Protocol’s security needs, Aave has the opportunity to offer a range of yield products serving different risk profiles. This opens the door for the Aave DAO to introduce a new low-risk savings product, which is anticipated to drive the next phase of GHO’s growth and adoption.
Key Advantages Of sGHO: Compounding ASR, No Rehypothecation For Instant Liquidity, Minimal Smart Contract Risk, And More
By depositing GHO into sGHO, users can earn the ASR, represented by an ERC-20 receipt token that accrues value over time. This token is easily integrated with other protocols.
sGHO is funded by revenue generated from the Aave Protocol and is specifically designed to offer the lowest-risk profile among Aave DAO’s yield products.
The key benefits of sGHO’s design include compounding interest through the ASR, no rehypothecation to ensure instant liquidity, a minimal smart contract risk surface, and no deposit or withdrawal fees. The ASR is configurable, providing the DAO with flexibility to offer either a fixed or variable rate that adjusts according to broader market conditions.
The detailed proposal aims to gather feedback from the community. If consensus is achieved on the Temperature check proposal, it will move to the Snapshot stage. If the Snapshot outcome is positive, the proposal will proceed to the Aave Request for Final Comments (ARFC) stage.

Yuga Labs announced that the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has closed its investigation into the company.
The NFT firm shared the update on March 3 in a post on X (Twitter), stating that after more than three years, “the SEC has officially closed its investigation into Yuga Labs.”
The post also described the decision as “a huge win for NFTs and all creators pushing our ecosystem forward,” adding, “NFTs are not securities.”
The SEC began investigating Yuga Labs in 2022 to determine whether certain NFTs qualified as securities under U.S. law. At the time, regulators were scrutinizing several major players in the Web3 space.
Yuga Labs is behind some of the most well-known NFT collections, including the Bored Ape Yacht Club (BAYC) and Mutant Ape Yacht Club. The company also acquired the rights to CryptoPunks, one of the earliest NFT collections, which had sold for significant sums in the past.

However, its major collection, BAYC, has struggled in recent years, in part due to regulatory uncertainty and SEC actions. In April 2023, it saw a sharp drop in floor prices, reaching its lowest level since 2021.
By September, some BAYC NFTs had lost up to 80% of their value. BAYC #5115, for example, sold for 11.24 ETH (around $27,353), far below its purchase price of 51.15 ETH ($233,653) three years earlier.
Despite the downturn, the SEC’s decision to close investigations into NFT-related cases could bring some optimism to the market. Last month, the SEC also ended its probe into OpenSea, dropping allegations that NFTs were unregistered securities.
However, other NFT projects have faced regulatory actions. CyberKongz and Immutable were also targeted, each receiving a Wells notice from the SEC. The Flyfish Club, an NFT-based dining venture, settled with the SEC for $750,000 in September 2024 over claims of offering unregistered securities.
Impact Theory, a media company, was fined $6.1 million in 2023 for its “Founder’s Keys” NFT series. Other cases include Stoner Cats, which paid a $1 million penalty, and Dapper Labs, which settled a lawsuit over NBA Top Shot NFTs for $4 million
