On this episode of The Realm Recap, Flyguy and I reunite from across the globe to discuss the latest in Star Wars news. A lot has transpired since the last time we broadcast: The Force Awakens has been released in the US (in various incarnations), a glorious teaser for Rogue One debuted and a sail barge-sized load of collecting news has dropped from Hasbro, Sideshow, Bandai and Funko! All of this and much more on Episode #93 of The Realm Recap.
Rogue One: A Star Wars Story star Felicity Jones reveals the prize for this week’s top Star Wars: Force For Change fundraiser: a wearable Rogue One stormtrooper helmet autographed by the cast! In addition, Star Wars: Force for Change will match the donations of Star Wars fans to four select charities up to $1 million until May the 4th.
C2E2 kicks off today with an announcement that Rogue One is getting a 3 issue comic series, plus a one shot release starting in October. Thanks to @JordanMaison on Twitter for the heads up.
Our friend, Justin LaSalata, from JediNews has posted this tweet regarding a brief glimpse he got of the packaging/style guide for Rogue One merchandise. Interestingly, this is a bit different from details I have for the branding, but admittedly my info is much older than this.
Here we go again…. Entertainment Weekly has posted an interview with Disney CEO Bob Iger stating that Episode VIII is now filming, after a slight delay, and production on Episode IX is in full swing. Check out what he has to stay about this and Rogue One at EW.com.
