As “Force Friday” rapidly approaches, fans are preparing for an onslaught of official Star Wars: The Force Awakens merchandise to hit shelves all over the world. In the build-up to that event, we’ve had quite a few early leaks, and this latest batch of promo art provides new looks at several of the characters as they’ll appear on various merchandise packaging from September onwards.
In the gallery above, you’ll see the sinister Kylo Ren (Adam Driver) and some of his First Order Stormtroopers, the saga’s latest droid addition BB-8, Jakku resident and one of our new young heroes Rey (Daisy Ridley), and last but by no means least, everyone’s favourite walking carpet, Chewbacca.
