The BIG excitement during the panel at the #D23Expo was when stars of the all-new Star Wars: The Force Awakens movie took to the stage for the first-look at their Infinity figures coming out later this Fall for the movie. John Boyega (Finn in the movie) seemed absolutely ridiculously excited to see his and be an action figure!! 😉 Then both he and Daisy Ridley (Rey) went into the crowd to give these first figures to two very lucky kids!!

What a memory for this kiddo! Love it!
