(NESWCC) was formed in 1996 by a group of friends from the New England area. The love of collecting toys from the films and discussing the Star Wars universe is what brought us together. Over the years, we‘ve added over 125 members and also crossed over to join with the Empire State Star Wars Collectors Club. This year at Celebration Chicago, we will be giving away 1 of a 6-piece puzzle patch hourly over the course of the show. The remaining 5 pieces will be given out at other Fan Club booths at Celebration. For our Main giveaway we joined Forces with Line Force, Pennsylvania Star Wars Collectors Society, Kentucky Star Wars Collectors Club, Swag Crew and Norwich Star Wars Club UK to bring you “Fill The Barge.” It is a 15-piece challenge coin giveaway. Each club will have a limited number of coins to be given out each day. With every coin you win, you’ll get your “Fill The Barge” card stamped. If you’re able to get 7 stamps, you’ll also receive a Free Fill The Barge Collectors coin album to display your coins.
