Honorable Combat2RW
Sorcery (U)
Target opponent chooses a legendary creature he or she controls, then you choose a legendary creature you control. Those creatures fight.
I'm calling it right now- worst rare in the set. Even good limited players will find better bombs at common and uncommon no sweat. Worst. Episode. Ever.
I really do predict this to be our worst rare in set award winner. I'd be happier opening a jar of eyeballs, so I think anything worse is highly unlikely. This card wont just have zero constructed potential, but not be significantly better than a mass of ghouls in a draft.
Jabba the Hutt3BR
Legendary Creature - Slug (R) T: Target player removes an article of clothing. Put a +1/+1 counter on Jabba the Hutt. : Put a piece of clothing you own back on, then remove a +1/+1 counter from Jabba the Hutt. Any player may activate this ability.

AD is definitely a safe bet when it comes to popular ficitional narrative. Mr. Funke here, has a kind of weird, if interesting mechanic probably referencing something from one of the episodes I haven't seen. You earn: A pair of ragged, tight denim shorts.
More than one, my friend! Tobias stumbled upon the Blue Man Group and wanted to be an understudy. A running gag on the show after his initial interest was random blue smudges and hand prints on the set, Tobias, and occasionally wardrobe of other characters.
So, that's why I made my card turn other cards blue. As for the protection, there are multiple episodes where Tobias uses his blue paint as camouflage among other things of the dark blue variety. The flavor text is even a quote from Tobias; he and his wife agree to try seeing other people, which is what causes him to find the Blue Man Group anyhow.
Thanks for the shorts, though I already have a pair. I dressed as blue man Tobias for Halloween. =D
You tried too hard to convey all the flavor of the story, which left you with lots of unnecessary wordiness (fortifications, really?) that added little to the card. Good flavor, want for elegance and conciseness (just like Tolkien's prose, incidentally.) You earn: The One Ring... oh wait, it's just a cheap copy.
It's ironic that I make an entry that embodies the wordiness and tensionlessness of the books! Also, I put little effort; it should've shown!
Anyway, Star Wars....
AT-AT6
Imperial Artifact — Vehicle Walker (R)
Shielding (Counter the first spell or ability each turn which targets AT-AT.)
Transport 6 (3: choose a number of attacking or blocking creatures you control
with combined power 6 or less. You may reassign those creatures. You may
choose new defending players, Planeswalkers and Bases for attacking
creatures.) BBB,T, tap an Imperial Officer or Imperial Pilot you control: Choose one —
destroy target Generator, or destroy target creature with toughness 2 or less. This
ability cannot be countered by Shielding abilities.
Designer's note: A "Base" would be a new card type like planeswalker in which it is awesome but can be attacked just like planeswalkers.
