Forgive my questions.....the LE is the stuff that's listed in the GG catalog correct?

Most of the items in the catalog are le. It'll say the edition size like 1977. If it says open edition then it's not limited.

So....the dining website is down. Hoping that's a sign that they are loading something special ?!!!

 

[kalliyan1]

Got it. Thanks so much!!!

This is why I'm glad I like a side character. There were 2 things in the video of Fett; an action figure pack which I won't be getting and a weirdly colored rifle. I'll be getting neither, but I will be getting the mug. There was a time back in the day where I had 90% of all things Boba and my wife said it'd be nice to have more things to collect. I told her I'm not going to. That if I went on a "mission" to collect all the boba fett stuff coming out, the Disney machine would far outstrip whatever budget I set aside. If I see something quality, I'll pick it up but even now the machine is turning. SWW collectibles are just the tip of the iceberg that 6 additional movies will produce.

I don't know why, but the "ghost" yoda and "Hologram" R2D2 looked neat. I'll have to see them in person.

In my random Rebel Hangar check, I saw a Jedi Mickey @ H&V for May 19th at 5:40. I was searching 4 people.

Got it. Thanks so much!!!

were you interested for anything in particular from the Galactic Gathering catalog?

 

[Good Morning Dewdrop]

where are the ewoks on the video? I don't "need" one but ....I'm tempted and I really want to see them! I'm trying not to watch the video or we'll get sucked in for the whole thing (DD and I).

Hi everyone! My DH and I really want the Mickey and Donald SWW MB's. Are those LE? And if it is, any chance of those being around in the evening of the 15th? Awesome advise here is to wait until the evening to head to Darth Mall. We will be there when the park opens, have no SW meals scheduled that day and will not be getting celebrity autographs or M&G musts.

I sure hope so!!
They should be around for the entire SWW.

That's great. Its a real bummer that the lines will be really long for DM in the morning. It would have been nice to get it that day and have it for the entire two days we are at WDW. No other trip planned after this one this year.

You can try and go in the morning and check out how long the line is. You know that you can use the mb from now on, right? You just have to transfer your ticket to the SWW MB every time you come on vacation

That's kind of what I do with Darth maul. When all they merchandise was coming out for the prequels I was overwhelmed so I just chose my favorite.

Did anyone notice SWW Christmas Ornaments?

Yes, I know we can use it on future trips but just wanted to have it for the weekend since its our first. No real good reasoning. LOL.

We would like to go straight to DM but I'm concerned with how long the lines would be to check out. With our FPP FtF, we get the express pass to DM but can't get into it until we get our credentials at 10 am. Its too bad you can't get your credentials before the days starts. Then it would be a no brainer!

@OhioStateBuckeye I've been reading your report from last year, you guys got a lot done

 

[FoolishMortal82]

Hey everyone, I'm so late to the party (as per usual). My sister and I actually booked a vaca in May so that we could go to the 24 hour MK party then happened to notice we were there during SWW! This will be our first time there but we're super excited. We'll be there weekend 2. We managed to snag a FtF, galactic breakfast and a jedi mickey dining! (don't know how, super good luck that we found some people wanting to swap!) anywayyy, just wanted to say I've been reading all the posts on here and I'm super excited to be here. Anyone going weekend 2, look for us! I'll be dressed as DV and my sister will be Boba Fett

 

[stardam]

Does anyone have experience with late galactic bfast reservations? We have 10:50 on the Saturday after 24 hr event because the kids wanna sleep in then go but I'm wondering if it's rushed when that late?
