On the bright side I ship Porg & BB9 from now on.

@Xylo Ren

I agree. I also don't think that they spoil the poster on a bed sheet. I am going to have faith that the team that designed that superb teaser poster won't put out product like this, nor would the very visual RJ choose it. This comforter is geared for kids. They probably want to get as many people on it as possible to remind the kids to want to buy toys for multiple characters in some subliminal marketing way, lol.

2BB-2 ("Blue BB Character")
Rolling about the hangar bays of outposts and capital ships, or snug in the astromech sockets of X-wing fighters, BB units work tirelessly to keep the weapons and vessels of the Resistance in top combat condition.

BB-9E ("BB-H8")
The First Order benefits from the latest in technology across all its activities. This includes having dark, gleaming BB astromech units of their own that keep their starships and machinery operational.

BB-8
Brave and loyal BB-8 continues his service to Poe Dameron, but also is a good friend and resourceful ally to Finn and Rose during their mission to thwart the First Order.

C-3PO
The threat of the First Order is of great concern to the ever-worried protocol droid C-3PO. He continues to serve General Leia Organa on the bridge of the Resistance cruiser.

R2-D2
Luke Skywalker’s faithful astromech droid remained dormant for years after his master disappeared. Now reactivated, R2-D2 travels with Rey and Chewbacca to a remote island where Skywalker is in exile.

Rey Hologram
At long last, Rey has found Luke Skywalker, the last Jedi Master in the galaxy. Hoping to find a hero of legend, Rey must unlearn what she has learned as Skywalker challenges her expectations.

Admiral Ackbar
A veteran commander, Ackbar led the defense of his homeworld during the Clone Wars and then masterminded the rebel attack on the second Death Star at the Battle of Endor. He retired to Mon Cala, but was coaxed back into service with the Resistance by Leia Organa.

Chewbacca
Faithful First Mate and co-pilot Chewbacca accompanies Rey on her quest to find Luke Skywalker. While Rey and Luke explore matters of the Force, Chewie gets to know the wildlife and inhabitants of the remote island.

Maz Kanata
The destruction of her castle has forced Maz to become more mobile and take a more hands-on role in the turbulent criminal underworld. She offers help in the struggle against the First Order by pointing the Resistance toward a mysterious new ally.

Porg
Small, flat-muzzled avians that flock about the rocks and roost in the cliffs of Luke Skywalker’s secluded island, porgs are inquisitive creatures.

Kylo Ren Hologram
After a stinging defeat by the scavenger Rey, Kylo Ren refocuses his efforts on destroying the Resistance. Though his powers in the dark side have increased, Kylo still has much to prove to his shadowy mentor, Supreme Leader Snoke.

Captain Phasma
Clad in distinctive metallic armor, Captain Phasma commands the First Order’s legions of troopers. Having survived the destruction of Starkiller Base, she has a personal score to settle with the Resistance.

Stormtrooper
Equipped with sleek armor and powerful weapons, the Stormtroopers enforce the will of the First Order.

Stormtrooper Executioner
The First Order can only operate effectively with the absolute loyalty of its followers. Should any soldier be found guilty of treason, it is up to this special branch of Stormtrooper to dispense final justice.

Elite Praetorian Guard
Supreme Leader Snoke stood atop an evil regime that mirrored many of the dark traditions of the Galactic Empire. As a striking example, Snoke was flanked by crimson-clad guardians, loyal protectors encased in ornate armor ready to defend the Supreme Leader from any threat.
