Road to Celebration - Pin Trading Begins

Image
  The first pins have been revealed the Road to Celebration begins this week as the first official merchandise from Star Wars Celebration Europe 2023 goes on sale! The official SWC Twitter account revealed the three Road to Celebration pin sets on Saturday and confirmed that all three sets will go on sale to ticket holders this Friday, March. 10, at 9am PT. Though no word yet on if they come with a shirt or not (I expect they will). This year's pin collection features art by Adrian Pontoh and the three Road to Celebration sets are Return of the Jedi , Andor , and The Mandalorian . I'm not familiar with Pontoh's work but I am loving the designs of these pins! Expect more designs to be revealed as we get closer to Celebration. And I can finally say that the Celebration Pin Trading 2023 page has been updated!!

Road to Celebration - Hera & Kanan Pins Go on Sale Tomorrow

Image
The final set of Road to Celebration pins are due to go on sale tomorrow. The Hera and Kanan set is third and final Road to Celebration release, and will go on sale tomorrow at the ReedPOP store . Like the Anakin and Padme pins, this online exclusive will be $35.00 and come with a shirt featuring the pin badge artwork. This week also saw the mystery character pin that fans could pre-order when they purchased their Celebration tickets starting to arrive in the mail, and it's Rey! International fans like me will have to wait a little long to pick them up on site. Have to admit I'm surprised they made such a major character the blind pre-order pin, but she certainly looks nice. Can't wait to have mine in hand!

Next Road to Celebration Pins Revealed

The next Road to Celebration pin sets have been revealed! And they're Anakin and Padme?! A newsletter came out earlier this week announcing that the next set of Road to Celebration pins will go on sale tomorrow (Friday, March 8th) and would be Anakin Skywalker and Padme Amidala. Now, this caused a little confusion as the original silhouettes suggested that Hera and Kanan would be Set 2 with Anakin and Padme being Set 3. The official site then added the confusion, updating to reveal both sets of pins and saying Hera and Kanan went on sale on March 1st. Cue lots of fans logging into ReedPOP to find only the first set is still available. Now the official site has been updated again to show Anakin and Padme as Set 2 (with a still incorrect sale date of March 1st) with Hera and Kanan once again being silhouetted, now as Set 3, with no release date. To cut a long story short, Anakin and Padme are going on sale tomorrow. The two pin set will come with an exclusive Road t...
