I'm all over everything SWW these days, but we only get into town on May 15.

I'm guessing the Dooney & Burke will be the same pattern as the Star Wars Half Marathon one but without the tag.

If someone needs to know the pattern, I can take a picture of my purse tonight.

Actually, here it is:

I purchased the large tote while at the Half Marathon.

do these things usually sell out before the end of SWW?? (thinking about the DB purses/bags)

that's a good question for the Disney Parks Blog. You can log in and ask Steven, he's very good at answering

Oh goodness. I need that bag, but I do not want to pay $250 to get in early. What's the odds that if I go straight there at rope drop on the 15th they will have any left?

you're fine. They actually are limiting purchases of the LE items. I doubt any of the LE will sell out during this special event day

 

[yulilin3]

There will be more details on merchandise tomorrow when they open the link to sign up

I want those Magic Bands. They are like my dream magic bands.

But but it appears they are for the event only and $250 for a magic band... *cry*

How much was the tote bag (if you don't mind me asking)? That might be my birthday/Christmas/Mother's Day present to myself for the next several years!

I can't wait to see the Han Solo popcorn bucket!

Also, what does expedited entry for all 5 weeks mean? I know there can be a line, does it just mean you can skip it? Is there always a line? When is the best time to visit (I'm assuming during parade time).

I hope they have a SWW Christmas ornament! We like to buy an ornament every vacation we take

Gah, I wasn't planning on coming down until Thursday night, but I really want to do this. I'm here now for Braves Spring Training (at WWoS) and I'll be at a baseball game that starts at 1. Do you think this will sell out quickly or do I need to be on my phone asap?
