In case you haven’t been lucky enough to already find Solo merchandise leaking out early in stores and online, your wait just got a little bit shorter. You’ve probably seen images of product cases marked with “STOP! Do not put on shelf before: April 13th, 2018” which seemed to conflict with prior reports of April 20 as the official start of “Wookiee Weekend”. I’ve been told by two sources at two different major retailers, that April 13 is now the launch date so you can shift your previously scheduled time off requests a week ahead.
