Just meet @yulilin3 and her kids Steph got her picture in full costume with the Rebels and Chopper. I may have been happier than they were as I proceeded to run towards them waving excitedly

Yes, and I also wonder if the sellers are getting what they are asking if the Boba Fett steins on EBay.

I agree that more info would be nice, like how many people in their group, how did the seating work for the later show(s), what food was at the breakfast, what was available at lunch from Mama Melrose.

I'm going to be sitting on the edge of my seat praying there are Fett steins and x-wing glow cubes weekend 4!

Same here for weekend V! There is a photo and chat on one of the Disney insider FB pages that supposedly is of someone purchasing $30K of SW merch to sell on EBay. Not sure how true it is or why Disney would allow it, but the photo is of two people standing beside very large carts loaded with plastic bags.

 

[soniam]

Yes me too with weekend 3!

I'm kinda disappointed hearing the steins are sold out already. I knew they would go fast but the 3rd day...c'mon.

It sounded like there was a problem with a shipment/supplies. Maybe the Rebels have been knocking out the supply chain They could have also underestimated the popularity, because I thought they still had Vader or trooper steins leftover from last year.

Boba Fett Steins

I had to work this weekend and logged a lot of miles listening to podcasts. While listening to The Dis Disneyland edition, they talked about a dock worker's strike on the west coast. They mentioned that a lot of the Disneyland 60th merchandise is sitting on boats in the Pacific Ocean.

I wonder if that is the root cause of the Fett steins.

Waiting for Rebel lounge. Right now they are NOT taking walk ups...outside area is very empty. We have a 5:35 ADR we checked in early and have a buzzer....

So, I've been trying to get a Sci-Fi ressie without success for June 14th. It is our only SWW day. So we will have to meet Vader in his line. My question is this. If I took my 2 kids first thing for Chewie/Ewok and sent my aunt to Vader's line and then joined her after meeting Chewie would that be okay to get in line with her? We've been to Disney 8 times in 6 years and have never done this. Just checking the etiquette/line protocol. Thanks!

 

[jtowntoflorida]

Sorry if this has been covered...but for this first weekend what's the latest that someone has arrived at DHS and still been able to get JTA? Also can I get confirmation of the signup location from the guinea pigs?

If you're not there at RD and don't go immediately there you won't get a spot during SWW. Even people who wind up at the end of the line get waitlisted.

 

[Mommy2TwoMickeys]

Any word on if there is Star Wars beer at RH?

Hope everyone is having a good time.

Just make sure that whoever is holding spots at Vader line let's family thru while they wait for you. So allow at least 5 families in front and keep allowing a family to go in front of them while they wait, letting the families behind know that they are waiting for you....does that make sense?

How much are those Boba Fett steins in the parks? $50 each on eBay is a bit steep!

I would also like to know how much the Boba Fett Steins are going for.

Where are the locations they have been seen at other then Darth's Mall?
(Think they would have them at the Mall first thing in the morning there?)

What drinks have they been offering to get in them. Thanks!

Trying it next weekend

 

[PiperGirlInWondrland]

Just had drinks and snacks at RH. Awesome time our ADRS was 4:05. We made it with no problem after the SOTS. Photo with Cantina band and Jawa. Everything was delicious and no rush.

Met yulilin3 and Stephanie at lunch and several other dissers. So much fun!

 

[yulilin3]

Weather report: yes it's been hot from 11 to around 5. But the evening have been great. Guinea piggers consider yourselves lucky, weather wise

 

[prgal0715]

Yet another Boba Fett request: is anyone willing to snag a Fett AP poster for me next weekend? Pretty please with sugar and a cherry on top? (I also posted a swap request on the roll call thread, FYI.) Full disclosure - my brother @Disney_owns_the_Ewoks is a MEGA Boba Fett fan; we're talking about a guy who spent $8,000 on a life-sized figure. I really want to make sure he gets a stein and a poster!! TIA to anyone willing to help!

 

[DanielWhitney]

How much is a 8" X 10" photo from Official Pix? I am not going to Weekend 5 and can order the two photos I want and should get them in time. Just was curious if it was worth paying the shipping cost. I am assuming they charge more there then on their site.
