Comic Con

 

UPDATE!

 

And here’s EW’s exclusive story:

 

The first wave of toys from this December’s Star Wars: The Force Awakens will debut at the annual geekosystem July 9-12, and today Entertainment Weekly has the exclusive reveal of three playthings that take inspiration from the redesigned white armor of that galactic army.

 

More toys will be announced as the Dec. 18 movie approaches, but for now Lucasfilm has chosen to keep Daisy Ridley’s desert scavenger Rey, Oscar Isaac’s X-Wing pilot Poe Dameron, and homeward bound Han Solo and Chewbacca at bay in the toy department in favor of showcasing the sleek and sinister stylings of the First Order Stormtroopers.

 

“Lego’s Buildable First Order Stormtrooper has 81 separate pieces that can be assembled into one 9-inch figure with posable limbs. It will be on display only at Comic-Con, and fans will have to wait until January 1, 2016 to purchase their own.”

“The first Hasbro action figure from The Force Awakens will be this 6-inch figure from the toy manufacturer’s Black Series of collectibles.”

 

 

star-wars-stormtrooper-02

 

“New die-cast model featuring the sleek First Order redesign will be joining Hot Wheels’ fleet at Comic-Con.”

        I am sure they will put the trailer or teaser online shortly after they show it at ComicCon

      They can’t tease us more. It must be the real trailer.

      Probably a full trailer that will be attached to Ant-Man.

        Probably not. What happens in Hall H at San Diego Comic Con stays in Hall H for a long time unless someone leaks it.

        It’s not a place where they screen release trailers, it’s a place for exclusives. That’s the whole point of the event.

          What are you talking about! Of course The info from Hall D is going to be public. And even if it was meant to be a private viewing, the information that goes out well be leaked to the public by the attendees since they aren’t bound by NDA’s.

            First off, San Diego Comic Con as a whole is a private event. Second they typically don’t premiere trailers that are going worldwide, why? Because people don’t just pay good money for exclusives at SDCC, there is a list you have to be on to even get tickets and it’s crowded and not easy to get on.

            To be sure Hall H has a reputation for exclusives, in fact no major film has premiered a trailer (that wasn’t an SDCC exclusive) there in years if not decades.

            But to answer your question I’m talking about actually being very familiar with SDCC you obviously don’t even know what Hall H is, hence your confusion.

            I’m glad you were here to undermine my post just to recap what I already stated about the best we’re getting is what someone leaks. Jackass.

          I hope you guys are right… a full trailer about a month away would certainly do much to alleviate my new Star Wars film content withdrawl post teaser 2 .

      They are a month apart. I doubt they want to pump out so much at one time.

    an out line of the plot and/or a real trailer to go in front of Ant Man?

  • June 10, 2015 at 10:54 pm

    Awesome…in my mind “a special look” might signify a clip from the film, not necessarily a trailer. What if we got a 30 – 90 second clip of the actual film? How cool would that be? California is getting a lot of Star Wars love in 2015.

          A new hope has emerged for fans to get another glimpse of the empire striking back in TFA. Maybe we will see the Jedi make a return as well?

            I hope your right! I’m just worried we will be menaced by the phantom of the Sith getting their revenge. But as long as its not AotC we should be fine.

    Do you think after they show the “special look” at sdcc, that they would reveal it to the internet after it drops? Or, if a trailer, will they show and it alongside say ant-man?

      If its a teaser/trailer, I’d like to think they would release it to us right after. If its an actual clip of the movie…… I doubt it :/

    Will they project the new trailer in reverse?
    That would be pretty special.

    Too bad SDCC is sold out. I only got to go 3 times. I’m still going to San Diego i like I do every year just to check out the stuff outside. It’s only a hour away from me. Hell yea

    I am still sticking with footage of a scene for SDCC,NOT a trailer!!
    It is too close to Anaheim and still far out from December.
    Hopefully a teaser poster though.
    special guests being the new cast at a guess.

      Although Age of Ultron had a few trailers but I am pretty sure they were the 3 months out stage.

      Due to Mission Impossible: Rogue Nation, they can’t promote the movie. You should get news at D23 in August.

        No, no, I mean like something small like when they’re going to start filming, for example.

    Comicon is huge!! This is the best time to show the epic good stuff. Hall H is massive! It’s where companies go to show the elite status secrets. So I’m thinking we are gonna get a big trailer some cast interviews and maybe sneak peek at rogue one or episode 8. I’m so pissed I missed out on tix again. I will still be down there just to get a sneak peak lol

    Actually Comic Con is from July 8th,not 9th. Cool that they’ll be there though.

    I’d be really surprised if they show another trailer so close to when Anaheim was.they could have shown whatever they had then.
    I am thinking more of a scene rather than a trailer….and hopefully a teaser poster.

    How can I go? I only have $15 saved and my boss says I can schedule July 9th or December 18th to be off? I am dependent on my friends to shop for special presents in September for my birthday and then the black Friday started holidays? PLUS I AM STILL NOT FINISHED WATCHING: trailer #2 555th time and trailer #1 5555th time (note actual digits all 5s but to spell out my phone number) – YET! ADVISE ME PLEASE 😉

    Since Kennedy, Abrams, and Kasdan are there, that means one or several of the following will be revealed:
    a) Behind the scenes footage or pictures
    b) A scene
    c) A new trailer or teaser
    d) A poster (I doubt this will be the only thing revealed there)

    Yep, we are going to get something new to watch a million times.

      Or have all us Star Wars fans created just as wonderful “twin sister” to turn us to the dark side if J.J.’S project is tight sealed (Yoda’s prophesy, there is another RINGS ONLY FROM THE FANDOM MENACE of 1999 – yes I am back from 1977 … 1999 as LaJHD, now 53 years of age new name B’Omarfiftythree not Plinkett above)? I was there in battle when your parents were in diapers! I was so shaken being Jabba’s 1983 landlord, as rich as over $30,000+ personally spent into collection to not give into anger … hate as some Anikan took my Count Duku or D.T. from me yesterday from my collection! – I don’t need another Jabba job (response above)!

    Hey, um, If ya’ll be seeing any trailers and find it’s way too spoiler-y, could you like issue a warning to those who are slow?

    You know what we really need? we need a website dedicated to grading how spoiler-y trailers are, you know, just in case you’re a Terminator fan.

    I like the Stormtrooper car. It’s the safest vehicle ever built. Just like the stormtrooper, it can’t hit a thing!
