    I definitely think we can make a separate thread for all merch discussions.

    Btw has anyone seen any good lists to all the exclusives, outside of the official store?

    I really want to see the back of the key art denim jacket. I think that's going to be really nice.

    Here's all the vendor exclusives I've found so far

    Lot more shared exclusives this time around.

    I was hoping for more limited edition stuff especially from Lego, Hot Wheels, and Funko but most of what I see is just labeled First to Market

    I wonder what happened with Hasbro and LEGO. Weren't they initially supposed to be with the lottery system? Hope they didn't back out of some cool exclusives.

    I can't believe EFX actually has something new to sell at their booth. The past 3 Celebrations I've attended, they've only ever had stuff just on display (Actually, that's not true, I did buy their replica of the stunt version of Obi-Wan's lightsaber from Episode 1 at 2015 Celebration, but I think those were left over from a previous Celebration and as a tie-in to TPM 3D)

    For people who regularly attend Celebrations, is this a good deal for a Celebration-exclusive T-shirt? https://www.ebay.com/itm/175287179630?mkevt=1&mkpid=0&emsid=e11021.m43.l3160&mkcid=7&ch=osgood&euid=5ad93552b2c74657b0f158268e045bf0&bu=44335996600&ut=RU&osub=-1~1&crd=20220519062501&segname=11021&sojTags=ch=ch,bu=bu,ut=ut,osub=osub,crd=crd,segname=segname,chnl=mkcid I don’t usually collect all the shirts, but I really love this one and being that it’s a convention exclusive and I’m not going this year, I wasn’t sure if that was a standard price or not. Thanks!

    Don't do it, talk real nice to someone that you know is going and see if they can lock it down for you at a better price. If that falls through then go the fleabay route.

    Hasbro said a while back they wouldn't have an exclusive (probably because their Star Wars shipping is so messed up right now, though that doesn't seem to affect Marvel Legends...).

    Lego were originally meant to be part of the lottery but then wasn't. Their exclusive was rumoured to be early release of BrickHeadz Obi-Wan and Vader. Either they decided it didn't warrant a lottery or they aren't going to be released early now. Not sure which.

    Lego will probably release it as a target exclusive like they did last year. They can produce more and make more money that way. It defats the "exclusivity" but I'm over that term for the most part. Nothing is truly exclusive anymore.

    Yeah, I think the only exclusives you need to worry about if you are after them are the High Republic book set, the Funko Grogu, and the Asmodee Games Ahsoka Starfighter. Those are the ones that seem to be actually exclusive and limited which the scalpers will go after. So they may be hard to get.

    There's apparently only 1000 copies. Not sure if they are splitting them between days or limiting to 1 per person or anything like that. But I'd definitely get to show store asap if you want one as VIPs will likely snatch up a lot of them Wednesday night and before official opening (same for Grogu Pop)

    Guess I know where I'm going if I can't get in the Disney+ panel on Thursday. Lol.

    I hope for everyone that book set is limited to one each!

    Will we have access to the Star Wars Celebration Store from inside of the Anaheim Convention Center? I have not attended a Star Wars Celebration in Anaheim before, and the map is unclear.

    Thanks, Star Wars Is Good. Any luck with receiving a late e-mail regarding your panel reservations? Looks like I am 0-4 for Anaheim this time. I was 3-3 for Chicago last time. I was scheduled to leave on Sunday. Then it snowed.

    @BrentC007 came up big and hooked me up for Thursday and I won Mando and Bad Batch. So I'm really thankful. I only hit Mando in Chicago.

    That’s good. Did you eventually receive e-mail confirmations regarding the panels that you won?
