Collectibles Panel Gallery (SWCA 2015)

Earlier today, at the “Behind-the-Scenes” stage of Star Wars Celebration, fans got a look at the past and future of Star Wars collectibles. Notable companies in the realm of collecting such as eFX, Gentle Giant, Kotobukiya, and Sideshow Collectibles took the stage and engaged the audience in an exciting panel. While thousands packed into the convention center in Anaheim, California, thousands more got to watch online via the live streaming service provided by the official Star Wars website. The panel was hosted by Anita Castellar, the fangirl responsible for managing the countless licenses of toys, collectibles, and electronics at Lucasfilm. Check out these awesome stills from panel that show a remarkable history of collectibles in the world of Star Wars, in addition to some exciting new projects in the works.
