Celebration Chicago is a few weeks away. Soon we will be reveling in 5 days of panels, parties and swag. The best part, as always, is seeing collector friends that you only get to see at Celebration. Naturally, many fans make small tokens to commemorate the event. For a refresh of what was handed out at the last celebration look no further than here.
Trading has been going on for several years now. Turns out, the tradition has only grown and spread far beyond the collecting community. Take for example this SWC Swag Crew on Facebook which boasts a tracked list that exceeds 1,000 unique items for this convention alone.
Due to the sheer volume, I will be focusing these posts on collector and collectible themed swag. Prepare for your jaw to drop.

If you are attending celebration, and want to meet some new collectors and make new friends, consider joining Star Wars With Friends (SWWF). Created by Cathy Kendrick, SWWF is a scrabble game you can play to win prizes and get swag. All donations made to play the game go to Rancho Obi-Wan.
We have barely made a pecking on the surface! I will be making another post next week with more swag. Until then, may your lanyards be full!
