StarWars.com has previewed the exclusives for Star Wars Celebration! Check them out!

Well, this should be interesting. If you are attending Celebration, and you want to attend a major panel, you will need to basically win the lottery. Standing in line at Celebration panels is one of the biggest time-sucks known to Star Wars fandom. Will this fix the problem? In my experience, solutions to problems like this often end up having all-new problems of their own. I think they would be better off reserving half the seating for this type of lottery and let the other half be for the die-hards who want to stand in line all night. Click here for full details! Celebration is just a few weeks away! I hope to see some of you JTA fans there! 

We have 5 more cards to reveal for our Celebration Chicago Vintage Kenner Card Back Trading Cards. Our Series 3 chase set will offer 1 card each day at a special location for you to hunt down (don’t worry, it will be easy). We will reveal the full schedule of when and where when we get closer to the event. For now, check out each card below. This brings the total cards produced to-date up to 34 (check out Series 3 details here). Don’t forget, for those that can’t make it to Celebration Chicago you can pre-order either the full Series 3 set or our entire set of 34 over in our store.
