CVI Coverage: Rancho Obi-Wan Experience

One of my personal highlights from Celebration VI was the walkthrough of the Rancho Obi-Wan Experience booth prior to the exhibit floor opening for the day. There were so many rare, unique and one of a kind items on display (one of which being handcrafted Yak Face figure) it required multiple viewings to take them all in. Check out this 80 image gallery to experience Rancho Obi-Wan for yourself.

Thanks to Steve Sansweet for not only bringing the exhibit but also for the taking the time for a brief chat and acceptance of one of our CVI Badge and Coin Pin sets.

Star Wars in 3D Updates

Star Wars fans will be looking at a busy fall in 2013 with both AOTC and ROTS receiving the 3D treatment, as both films will released in theaters again, this time just a few weeks apart!  Attack of the Clones will be released on September 20th, 2013, and Revenge of the Sith on October 11th, 2013. 

For all the fans of Hasbro’s toy line, could squeezing these two films so close together spell disaster?  Share your thoughts on how this could impact the hobby after the jump!

CVI Coverage: Hasbro Booth

Better late than never right? Yesterday was a blur with taking in all that is Celebration VI, not to mention our fabulous party with Star Wars Action News, but here is our slightly delayed first run through the Hasbro booth. Not a whole not new really but that should change later today (hopefully) after the Hasbro panel. Watch for more additions to this section as well as entries for the other licensees at CVI!

UPDATE: More images added to the gallery

Curto Burns Collectors Cast Press Release

James and Dan of Curto Burns Collectors Cast have issued a press release with an update to their location at Celebration VI. Read on for the full details.

The Best Laid Plans of Ewoks and Men

Going into the final arrangements for set-up earlier today, we realized we had a potential problem with the placement of the Curto Burns Collectors Cast.  There wasn’t enough room for an audience while people were moving through the Rancho Obi-Wan Experience exhibit. So, the Curto Burns Collectors Cast now has its own space at an expanded booth #450, ‘The Force United’. Steve Sansweet will be dropping by to record with James Burns and Dan Curto during the show (times for all sessions will be posted at the booth.)

Curto Burns Collectors Cast also have a special Collectors Cast postcard to give away along with a badge\button and other giveaways too (while supplies last).
