Celebration V: Star Wars Cereal Boxes

Tuesday, July 20 2010 - Features - by: daveomac

Lucas will be giving away sixteen amazing cereal boxes as give-aways for those attending the Celebration V Collecting Panels this August 12-15.

Chris Georgoulias led the effort working with collectors, sponsors, and artists, who contributed to the concepts, funding, and artwork of this completely fan-sponsored giveaway. There are sixteen mini cereal boxes to collect (they are about four inches tall), one for each panel, and they are exclusive to Celebration V! Only 400 of each will be made available. Box illustrations are by artists Jeff Correll, Mattias Rendahl, Grant Gould, Bill Cable, Chris Reiff, Jeff Carlisle, Scott D.M. Simmons, and Chris Trevas. The boxes will be handed out at random times during each panel and will be absolutely free.

"We are thrilled to announce the exclusive giveaways," says Lopez. "In addition to listening to fascinating talks and panels by some of the leading experts on Star Wars collecting, attendees will receive collectible cereal boxes based on Star Wars character 'cereal brands' highlighting each of the sixteen panel topics."

Crimson Monkey will be attending the convention and hopefully can tell you first hand how awesome these boxes are.
