Steve Mitchell aka TC-6734 / "HARP" writes in with this report:

Over the past weekend I stopped in to a local and seasonal Halloween shop (Spirit) and to my surprise there was a cardboard Vader standee complete with the attached advertisement for a contest offering a trip to Celebration V.

I was just listening to the Sept 11th Forcecast in which you mention Spirit's website and the same contest. I thought you guys would enjoy seeing this ...could this be the official logo? I'm uncertain as I have not seen the one that was presented @ Chicago Comic Con. This would certainly look killer on a black t-shirt.

Thanks for the info, Steve! This is in fact the official logo for Celebration V that was shown very briefly at the Chicago Comic-Con last month, but it has not yet been officially revealed outside of the convention until now. Look for an announcement from the Official Site soon.



UPDATE: I made a trip to my local Spirit store this evening to see if I could find out anymore details regarding this contest and sure enough, I found this!
