介绍:
Fans awakened at midnight in Hong Kong for the release of latest "Star Wars" toys and collectibles.
The release is part of a promotion for the upcoming "Star Wars" movie scheduled for this winter.
Participating cities include Sydney, Tokyo, Hong Kong, Paris, London, New York and Rio de Janeiro.
Directed by J.J Abrams, "The Force Awakens" brings back "Star Wars" veterans like Harrison Ford, Carrie Fisher and Mark Hamill.
The new installment picks up about 30 years after the events of "Return of the Jedi".
It was confirmed earlier this month that Chinese Kung Fu star Donnie Yen and actor Jiang Wen were cast in a spin-off film "Star Wars: Rogue One".
"Star Wars" fan Edmond Tong said he was "thrilled" to finally see Asian faces in his beloved franchise. "I think that would be more interesting and I would be more engaged in the movie. Because we imitate western characters when we are cosplaying, if the cast includes Chinese actors that we are familiar with, we will feel more sense of kinship."
"Star Wars: The Force Awakens" will be released in the US on December 18th.
