    Here's a pic of my haul from the last week - still have a couple of things that I'm waiting on. This is first Target order, Disney store order, and Rogue One Smuggler's box. Best thing other than the Smuggler's box that showed up the day before - the other things showed up on my Birthday :)

    Got my tickets for Rogue One today :D
    And ordered Black Series 6'' Director Krennic on ebay also, it'll be at least a couple of weeks waiting for him.

    I also got my tickets for R1 opening night. From the sound of it SW fans once again broke the internet and the friend I had going online to get them got "put in line" for an hour before giving up. But she was able to go today and get them at the box office so it's all good. We've got ten of us going, so should be fun.

    Found a lone R1 Leia Organa (as seen in Rebels) on the shelf at Target. It looked to me as if the shelf had been freshly stocked that day as there were a bunch of the second wave figures there too (Andor, Krennic, Vader, etc) but only one Rebels Leia.

    Very cool! Did you get that while buying popcorn for another flick or did they just have them for sale there? If my theater has them I'm so getting one.

    You could buy only the bucket, that's what I did.
    But there are options to buy it with popcorn only, or to buy it with popcorn and 2 drinks. That way the bucket is cheaper, but I was just passing by and wasn't going to watch anything, so... had to go for the bucket only.
    I live in Brazil, so I'm not sure if this bucket is for sale in the US as well or if it's just a brazillian thing. I would imagine there's probably something similiar.
    In another brazillian theater they're selling a Death Star popcorn bucket. But we don't have that in my city.

    I'll have to see if my local cinema here in the UK has anything similar when I go on Thursday.

    I wouldn't be surprised if some US theatre chains had those or something similar. My local cinema usually has tin buckets for major blockbuster releases, so I might nab a Rogue One one if I can.

    Yeah, it'll vary by theater chain. For TFA my theater had an exclusive Captain Phasma cup. I'm sure each chain will get their own special chotsky. Gonna be hard to top that bucket though. Very cool.

    Ticket for Rogue One (3D) this morning. It's very good. As far as I could tell the cinema had no special cups, etc for the film They had a few boxes of SW plushies but I gave those a pass. Also found the 2017 SW Insider Special Edition at a local bookstore/newsagents.
