SMUGGLER’S RUN: CHEWBACCA MODE

The stickers would display an array of images from all the movies when complete. It also would display a secret message that would appear at the end of the night. We headed towards the SW Launch Bay and were surrounded by many different R2 units. It included the regular […]
