For UK collectors trying to acquire the Vintage Collection Sail Barge, be assured that Hasbro is still pursuing a way to distribute it in that country in 2019. There has been alarm recently that it wasn’t going to happen at all. Hopefully we’ll hear something by Toy Fair 2019, if not before.
Thanks to UK resident Ashley F. for the updated info.

While the final cinematic chapter in the Skywalker story draws to a close in December 2019, there will (once again) be a huge marketing push and global launch for products for Episode IX. Rumor has it that this date is set a bit closer to the film launch than the previous installments — October 4, 2019. Barring leaks and official early first looks and preorders, this will be the hard street date for the copious amount of licensed products (toys, books, clothing, etc.) from not only Episode IX but from other sources throughout the franchise as well.
And yes, you can expect us to assemble our downloadable “unofficial” checklist for this event as well.
UPDATE: also of interest, Star Wars will be sharing a merchandise launch date with another popular and highly anticipated sequel. If you have young kids like I do, hopefully that won’t cause your bank accounts and credit cards to be Frozen, too.
