Another Black Series Packaging Change?
Our friends at JediNews are on the floor at Star Wars Celebration and have been snapping photo of the set up progress.

Note the “2015 New Series” text on the side of the display cabinet. You can check out the full image via Instagram or Twitter.
Star Wars-Themed Cruises Sailing Soon?
Ever since Disney’s acquisition of the Star Wars brand, it has been speculated that we’d inevitably see a Star Wars-themed Disney cruise. Our friends Mark and James from JediNews wrote about this recently for Metro News, but now a tweet from Attractions Magazine virtually confirms the rumor.
If the rumor we heard comes true, Star Wars fans will want to save their money for a cruise next year.
