SW Exhibition

Hiya!

Any SW Fans in Japan who had gone to the SW Exhibition that is going on there? Any reports of what is there and how they were showcase? I'm most interested to hear about how the exhibition is like in Japan.

 

Where is this exhibition you speak of? The only Star Wars related stuff I have seen lately is the Star Wars pachinko machines and the snow sculptures...

 

I asked someone from the 501st Japanese Garrison and this was his reply:

Next Exhibition's information is here.

Saw it last year in Kyoto (where it opened) and i have to say - it was good BUT not mind blowing !!!!! mostly clothes - a couple of models but nothing of any value....I was excited but aslo alittle disappointed...

 

I heard they increased the volume of exhibits as the exhibition move to the next location. According to my source, when it reaches our shore, the whole of the Exhibition Hall will be taken up entirely by the exhibits compared to only half when it house the LOTR one.

Now if only the Japanese Company in charge of it will send the contract over here before May 16th when the Big Announcement is suppose to be made here.
