    So no more Kira? Is that official? It's just Rey now, not Kira Rey?

    Nothing super exciting in the exhibit hall for TFA.

    I will download some pics when I get a chance.

    Already a big line for hall H.

    So does it all look like the same stuff as what was shown at Celebration? I don't remember the Lego stormtrooper being there, but just curious if the exhibits do include all of the stuff from Celebration, too (i.e. Kylo's crosssaber, costumes, etc.)

    There are no costume displays for TFA. The only prop from the movie is Reys speeder.

    The lego storm tropper was actualy at the lego booth. The rest of the Lucas Film area is impressive. But most everything on display is original trillogy stuff. Lots of merchandise. They do have large banners of screen shots from the last TFA trailer.

    I bet they are blank inside. Or other older books with new covers.

    They looked real to me. They had several along with all the other books. My guess is that they are ready to go. They just don't want to spoil anything from TFA yet.

    Hasbro holding out on it's TFA figure reveals till Friday, as are Lego.

    San Diego Comic-Con 2015 is going to be huge for Star Wars... but on Preview Night the Star Wars display at the Hasbro booth was sadly lacking. Have no fear, though, for there were multiple empty display cases with tags saying “New Figure Revealed This Friday At 1:30pm” so stay tuned! Now, they weren’t all empty; we did get to see the new Black Series First Order Stormtrooper along with other collectibles like the Star Wars RISK game, spaceships, Rebels, and currently available Black Series figures.

    So they said no trailer would be shown at SDCC. But they just released the Star Wars app with AR. So maybe they release an image that when using the app gives you a new trailer. That way they didn't lie to EW, give fans what they want and promote their new app. Maybe im just hopeful.

    I think there will be a new trailer at SDCC...

    We've ticked into the 5 months to go for the movie, and with merchandise at full swing by September, the Hype train needs to be at full steam from here...

    It's based off the original Ralph concept for a Stormtrooper from ANH... Move along...

    I did see the black series first order trooper. But you have to get a ticket first and then line up early to get one. Apparently they sell out quick each day.
