Official Star Wars Weekends Thread Tips and Tricks 2015

the sale is starting early. Deb from allears just took this pic at Watto's Grotto. Remember if you are an AP you can add your regular 10% on top of that

Sorry but for some reason I can't see the sale image? What is the markdown??

Gotcha, thanks

I was in Jeremy's line about 20 people outside the security gate (arrived 4am).
they started working the lines about six. When they did that, around 6:25 they told people in Ray Park's line they were out of luck. Jeremy's line was in standby by then, so some went to Ashley's line and shut it down. The one's that were further in the back didn't hear and hung out for another 10 minutes or so. I think some got left with nothing.

at 4 at the very latest

I was at 4am and about 20 outside the security check. I'd say we were about 1/2 way through the 3 shows.

General question, are the last weekends any less crowded than the first few? Already trying to plan my next few trips (I know, I have a problem). I went during Memorial Day weekend this year and was wondering if maybe that was my first mistake? Curious if the last two weekends are any better than that. Thanks and I'm super jealous of everyone at SWW today!

well, there are no seasonal passes or main gates, but there are more kids out of school. Probably better than Memorial day though.

Stephanie just installed periscope on her phone using my twitter. If anyone wants to follow along we are thinking of broadcasting the back side of the stage after the parade so you guys can see how the characters and celebrities exit on Sunday. This would be around 11:30am.
Tomorrow do you guys wanna see the Rebels show? we have fp for that.
How about the Luke, Leia and droids last set tomorrow?
I'll probably give like a 5 minute warning post here so you guys can see.

Hi! For those tracking their D-Tech figures, my DH got his via FedEx yesterday. His appointment was on Friday, May 15 at 12:30 p.m. We didn't need to be home to sign for it.

It was the highlight of the evening to open box and it's awesome! Looks great and totally worth the money for the happiness it brought him.

In fact, I think I may get Princess Leia for myself next time.

LOL! We were the ones in front of you at Chewie. Hope breakfast is good!

We were behind both of you at chewie- farther back though. We checked in at 9:10 for our 9:30 breakfast. Went through Darths mall and chilling at LMA show. Girls went back to resort for a bit. DS is liking the car show!

 

[Monykalyn]

FYI if you are just at the end of the ribbon line holder thing for chewie it's about a 40 minute wait. Really not bad at all- shaded in am

Does anyone know if the unsold merchandise will be hitting the Character Warehouse Outlets shortly after the end of Star Wars weekends? We will be back in WDW June 17th - 23rd and plan to hit the outlet stores before we leave this trip.

Anyone meeting Ray Park that would be willing to take a picture (drawing of duck Maul) in to get signed for my son?

 

[Mommy2Jameson]

As far as #3, I might see you in line since VttM followed by Chewie might be our route that morning as well!

Sounds like a plan @momofallsons! I'll be there with my 9 year old son, who will be wearing a darth maul duck tank top! Say hi! Do you have anyone waiting in the Chewie line that morning?
