Collect up to 20 Star Tots

Collecting Star Wars is a favorite hobby for some and an obsession for others. The Collecting Track at Star Wars Celebration Orlando will feature in-depth information on a variety of topics from mainstream to delightfully obscure. This year the Collecting Track will be made up of the Star Wars Collector's Stage and the Collectors' Social Room.

Star Wars Collectors' Stage, located in room W307ABC, will feature panels by expert collectors from all around the world.

Collectors' Social Room, located in Room W306D near the collecting stage, is where collectors of Star Wars treasures can meet other like-minded people in space. Here fans can compare notes, swap items from their collections (and pins!), and engage with each other on very specific topics to the Collecting Universe.

Each Celebration, super-collector Gus Lopez and his team put together a great program, and an extra-special bonus for collectors. For every panel held throughout the Show on the Star Wars Collectors' Stage, each attendee (to the capacity of the room) will receive an exclusive Star Tot, created by the collectors for Star Wars Celebration Orlando.
Star Tots Images Revealed!

Inspired by The Return of the Jedi, a different Star Tot will be given out to attendees at each of the collecting track panels all weekend.

Star Wars Celebration Pin Trading Rules, Etiquette and FAQ

Where do I get my Official Star Wars Celebration Pin Trading Pins?



  • Many pins are available for sale in the Official Star Wars Celebration Show Store.
  • Select "sponsor pins" will also be available on the Show floor at certain Exhibitors Booths – just look for the signs at the Show! The Star Wars Celebration Pin Trading logo will indicate which Booths have official pins available.
  • Additionally, pins can be obtained through trading with other Fans displaying a lanyard with pins on it. We encourage trading, but not buying!
  • Some pins can only be acquired by trading with a Celebration Staff member.
  • A few select pins were only offered to ticket holders prior to the show – but Eagle-eyed traders may be able to spot these pins available for trading on the show floor.

How do I trade for pins?


  • Pins must be traded one-for-one, one pin at a time. Please ensure that pin backs are attached for a safe pin trading experience.
  • Monies, gifts or receipts may not be exchanged or used in trade for a pin.
  • Pins should be in good, undamaged, tradable condition.
  • Pins can be traded in the designated Pin Trading area in the Official Star Wars Celebration Show store, or anywhere on the floor! If you see someone with a pin that you want to trade for, just ask! But be sure to be considerate and polite.
  • Please refrain from touching staff member or other fan pins or lanyards. If you need a closer look, kindly ask the individual wearing the lanyard if she or he can bring it into clearer view for you.
  • You may trade as many pins as you want with another Fan.
  • You may only trade two (2) pins with a Staff member per day. You may trade with as many Staff members per day as you wish.
  • Staff members cannot decline to trade with you – if they have a pin on their lanyard that you want to trade for, they will make the trade -- but fans can decline.
  • Fans can trade among other Fans at their own discretion, but Staff members will only trade for 2017 year pins.


Please be respectful!

What are the Star Wars Celebration pin trading pins? And how rare are they?


  • All Star Wars Celebration pins from all years are limited edition and exclusive to Star Wars Celebration. All pins designated as "Staff only" are only available to you by trading with a Staff member.
  • There are a total of 40 unique pins in the Star Wars Celebration pin trading collection – one for each year since Star Wars first debuted in 1977! The 2017 Pin collection was designed by artist Derek Laufman.
  • Though the pins are not numbered, they are available in limited supply – they will only be made available throughout Star Wars Celebration. Because of the exclusivity, you may only purchase 2 of each style pin (or set of pins) per transaction, with the exception of the Blind Packs, for which you can purchase 5 per transaction.
  • You can locate Exhibitor Exclusives pins by looking for the signs at their booth while at the show. The Star Wars Celebration Pin Trading logo will indicate which booths have official pins available.
  • Edition sizes will not be released, but some pins are rarer than others. Keep your eyes peeled for those rare pins!

The most important thing is to remember is to have fun.
Good luck and happy trading!

Gutted that I'm not going to be able to attend this year - work has just made it impossible sadly. I've been to both the Celebrations in the UK but have never been able to get to a 'proper' Celebration in the US. Maybe next year

Loving the 40th Anniversary black series figures as well and the Celebration Exclusive Luke X-Wing is bloody brilliant!

Commemorating 40 years of Star Wars: A New Hope, PopMinded by Hallmark will arrive at Star Wars Celebration with a new Keepsake Ornament and three new additions to the popular line of itty bittys® plush collectibles available exclusively at the fan event.


Each item will be sold in limited quantities at each day of the event, scheduled April 13-16 at Orange County Convention Center in Orlando, Fla.


PopMinded, which debuted nationally last year, is Hallmark’s new way to celebrate fandom with gifts and collectibles created and chosen with all fans in mind. PopMinded continues and expands on Hallmark’s decade-long tradition of providing event attendees access to Hallmark’s ever popular event exclusive products through its event pop-up store.


Beginnings: Stormtrooper™ keepsake ornament features the shield-carrying, lightsaber-wielding armored soldier inspired by the styling of famed artist Ralph McQuarrie in preproduction art for Star Wars: A New Hope. In the 40 years since their creation, McQuarrie’s original visions for the Star Wars galaxy of characters, vehicles and planets continues to inspire and delight fans. Beginnings: Stormtrooper has a total production run of 2,600 and sales will be limited to 650 per day.

This is Hallmark’s 21st year of producing Keepsake Ornaments that capture favorite memories of the Star Wars saga, including event-exclusive ornaments that first were produced in 2008.


Snaggletooth™ and Hammerhead™ bring the Mos Eisley Cantina to Hallmark’s itty bittys® line. Hammerhead and a red-suited version of Snaggletooth itty bittys® are designed and packaged with a nod to the original Star Wars action figures. Each itty bitty, packaged in a blister card, has a total production run of 3,000 and sales will be limited to 750 per day. In addition, a blue-suited Snaggletooth will be available “loose”, not carded and has a total production run of 1,000 with sales limited to 250 per day.

Dozens of heroes, villains and creatures of Star Wars now figure among the iconic characters of film, comics and television to appear as uniquely styled plush itty bittys® exclusively in Hallmark Gold Crown® stores and online at Hallmark.com.


In addition to the event exclusive product, fans can also purchase a commemorative poster and button set, designed by a Hallmark artist and in very limited quantities. There will also be a limited number of Hallmark Gold Crown store products made available for purchase at the onsite PopMinded pop-up store. One of those items is a Star Wars Rebels Ahsoka Tano™ ittty bitty that is only available on Hallmark.com, will be offered during a signing with the voice of Ahsoka, Ashley Eckstein.


PopMinded will continue the tradition of exclusive buttons, handed out in limited quantities with a different design released each day of the convention.
