WOTC Wizards Shopper Email - Interesting C2 info

Some interesting info in this email I just got, so I thought I'd share:

Star Wars Celebration II count down is in effect...

Some of the activities planned are: The Flipping Jedi contest, become an action figure by getting your picture taken in a life size blister card, demonstrations of the interactive R2D2, and much more. Thanks to Hasbro's sponsorship of the Star Wars Toy Museum at Celebration II, you can stroll through the Toy Museum and relive the early days of the saga through the eyes of a collector - action figures, vehicles, creatures, and vessels from Star Wars A New Hope to The Phantom Menace.

LucasArts will showcase its world-renowned games at Celebration II. They are the electronic game sponsor and you will be able to try your hand in the LAN area with Star Wars Jedi Knight II: Jedi Outcast and Star Wars: Episode I Racer and win game prizes.

Yet another interesting email from the same source:

Dear Star Wars Collector,

Tune up your Podracer and get ready to speed your way to Suncoast Booth #500, the only place in the galaxy that will have 500 exclusive, leather-bound and autographed Star Wars: Episode II Attack of the Clones novels by best-selling author R. A. Salvatore. You won't find this exclusive collectible anywhere else and they won't last long.

So, remember:
The number: 500. The place: Star Wars Celebration II. The booth: Suncoast #500.
Good luck!

 

Thanks for the info (I got the e-mails too). A couple of your links in the first e-mail need to have the http:// in front.

 

Fixed it...thanks.

 

Hey, it's me. I got the emails and I was wondering if this limited edition copy will cost us 100 bucks or something. I kind of think in the other direction(that it will be regularly priced)though because they didn' name a price. Anybody know?

 

Yes, I'd like to know that myself. I'd planned on buying a copy for the autograph, but if these are near the same price, I'd like one of those. But if it's way off...

 

At Celebration I in Denver, the limited edition, leather bound novel was $100. They said they only had 5,000 of them, but they're still selling them at ($30).

But with only 500 of the Ep II novels, they just might sell out quickly. I'm definitely getting one!
