MARTA MARTINEZ OF POLAROID TALKS TO STARWARS.COM ABOUT A LIMITED-EDITION RELEASE THAT’S SURE TO LIGHT UP TRACKING FOBS AROUND THE GALAXY.

Fans of a certain classic analog camera and the galaxy far, far away have a new ultimate bounty: Polaroid unveiled last week a limited edition The Mandalorian Polaroid Now camera and the Child-inspired instant film, available now. Sporting a design inspired by the Disney+ series’ titular helmeted warrior, the stunner of a camera seamlessly blends the retro-cool look and legacy of the beloved Polaroid brand with the aesthetic of one of Star Wars’ most popular new characters.
