#STARWARSVINLYMATION #EXCLUSIVES Disney Parks Merchandise will be releasing a lot of limited edition merchandise at Celebration VI, which starts Aug. 23. Not only will the Hologram Princess Leia be available at the Disney booth, but apparently Star Wars series 2, Disney Star Wars action figures, t-shirts and some unique experiences will also be available. Below is the article from the Disney Blog that was posted earlier this afternoon by Disney Merchandise Communications Manager, Steven Miller. Disney Parks has a long history with Star Wars that dates back to 1987 with the opening of Star Tours at Disneyland park. Since that time, we have offered a variety of collectibles including action figures, pins, shirts and more. I’m happy to report that Disney Theme Park Merchandise will be attending Star Wars Celebration VI, a Star Wars fan event coming to the Orange County Convention Center from August 23-26, 2012. This year, we have created some items that fans will only find at this event.
One of those event exclusive items is a 3-inch Vinylmation figure of Princess Leia as a hologram. This figure has an edition size of 2,500, and is considered the variant figure to the Leia figure found in Vinylmation – Star Wars
#2 series (which will also debut at the event on August 23 and will later be sold at Disney Parks). Another Celebration VI exclusive item will be the 25th Anniversary Starspeeder die-cast set. This set features both the Starspeeder 3000 (for the first time ever) and the Starspeeder 1000 from Star Tours – The Adventures Continue.
