The Global Countdown to Force Friday II has begun
Force Friday II kicks off September 1, and Star Wars has set the countdown clock ticking…
Force Friday II will be the launch of all-new Star Wars: The Last Jedi toys, as well as some updated versions of classics. In preparation for the global event, Star Wars has started the Global Countdown Clock ticking down the days, hours, minutes and seconds until stores around the world will open their doors to the public, and Star Wars fans will get a chance to acquire all sorts of Star Wars collectibles and goodies.
As StarWars.com notes, the countdown can be accessed via the Star Wars app, and fans can point their smart phones at close to a landmark’s coordinates, and an “augmented reality” showing star destroyers and TIE Fighters flying through the skyline.
