Anyone with the name George Lucas will get into Celebration Europe for free. But how many could there be? (Other than this guy.)
Also, the program cover, which same artist or no, beats CIV’s by a mile, IMO. ;)
Celebration Europe updates
Rick McCallum will join the crowd in London, and musical fans could find themselves battling for the title of Celebration Europe Cantina Band.
CE: The guest list begins
CE: A host! A host!
Dark Horse forgoing Celebration Europe
Looks like comic presence will be slim to none in London this summer, due to the proximity of the mammoth San Deigo Comic Con. Hopefully some individual artists and writers will be able to make it over the pond.
CIV, CE: Figure exclusive, Saber contest
Action figures based on the original McQuarrie concept art of Metropolis-inspired Threepio and Artoo! Now that’s almost worth waiting in line for.
In other CIV news, Master Replicas will be hosting tree competitive ‘Combat Trials’.
CE: Collecting track, offsite exhibit
Check out Celebration Europe’s collecting programming. Meanwhile, elsewhere in London during CE will be Star Wars: The Exhibition.
CE: Art, art and more art in London
Lawrence Noble will be live-sculpting Grand Moff Tarkin at Celebration Europe. Just like at CIV, one lucky fan will get to take the bust home. There’ll also be an art show and environments by Weird & Wonderful that will “transport visitors into the world of Star Wars.”
Free stuff at CIV; Droids for CE
Two-inch pewter medallion featuring classic figures will be given away during random collecting panels at Celebration. They’re limited to only 350 of each.
Meanwhile, fans at Celebration Europe can expect the R2-D2 Builders.
Celebration Europe updates; Disney guests
Charlie Ross is taking his One Man Star Wars Trilogy over the sea to Celebration Europe; David Prowse, Ray Park, Jeremy Bulloch, Daniel Logan, and Temuera Morrison are confirmed guests.
We also get the guest list for this year’s Disney Star Wars Weekends.
