Club Jade

Her Universe has revealed yet more new items to debut at Star Wars Weekends. There are 5 new tees, 1 new tank, and four new costume hoodies, plus the long-awaited X-Wing dress and a limited edition necklace.

Above is out ‘official’ reveal of the A-line X-Wing dress. At right is the limited edition Return of the Jedi necklace. Only 1,250 have been made, but only 500 of them will be sold (first come, first serve) at Star Wars Weekends. The remaining 750 will be available “at select Her Universe events” – during summer convention season, perhaps?

Head below the cut to see the rest of the new offerings – including another limited edition – and as always, click on the photos to see larger versions.

Details are in the photo, but here’s the link again.

Ashley also gave us another look at the X-Wing dress today! (Since May 4th has come and gone, I suspect this will go on sale when Disney’s Star Wars Weekends begins.)

Who’s an appropriate choice to be Her Universe’s Fangirl of the Day on May 4th? Lucasfilm’s Mary Franklin is not only Club Jade’s favorite bartending visionary, but she’s been responsible for almost every single Celebration and the Bantha Tracks newsletter. (Which, granted, may be the more impressive feat overall, but hey: We love our bar.)

You’ll want to check out Mary’s blog entries on the StarWars.com blog, particularly her series going behind the scenes at Celebration, which even features a few other Jaders here and there.

And of course you’ve been keeping up with the Fangirls of the Day, right?

We got a sneak peek of the full line yesterday when the video came out a tad early, but now everything is out in the open and official! These six new pieces – there are more pictures below the cut – will be available on HotTopic.com on Saturday, May 4.

And here’s something new – it looks like all these items are available in plus sizes up to 3X! (And according to their sizing chart, actual plus sizes) Above, the Empire (in plus) and Han Solo (in plus.)

And there’s a free gift, too! Head below for more!

Ashley Eckstein introduces Her Universe’s Hot Topic exclusives, including a few things we haven’t seen yet.

Her Universe has been dropping a lot of pics lately, and I have, alas, been a little too tied up to do much – until today, with the double (triple?) punch of the X-wing A-line and Hot Topic dresses. It also looks like we’re getting an Artoo costume hoodie, but I’m not sure about the purple shirt the little girl is wearing… Anyone recognize it?

We think these will be available very soon (like, next week, probably) – stay tuned! And Doctor Who fans, ThinkGeek is selling new Her Universe Time Lord and Dalek shirts, though Ashley does warn they run small.

Ashley Eckstein shared this photo by Joel Aron of her and Dave Filoni. The ‘Ashoka Lives’ tee “will be available soon.”

Here’s another Her Universe first look from Ashley Eckstein – a “Rogue Squadron hooded racer-back tank top.” She’s already revealed that it’ll be one of the new products coming in May.

Fresh from the photo shoot… Ashley Eckstein gave Her Universe fans our first look at these van Gogh TARDIS leggings the other day. Sounds like they’ll be another Hot Topic exclusive.

With new Doctor Who coming any day now (more on that later,) get yourself in the mood by ordering the latest from Her Universe: A Dalek dress.

Like the Tardis dress, this one is a Hot Topic exclusive and will run you $26.50-30.50. It also, according to Ashley, runs small.
