We here at the SDCC Unofficial Blog are working round the clock to bring you the hottest San Diego Comic-Con news. OK, this time of year it definitely seems that way, but we’re working hard to bring you great news from Ash Evans, Camilla d’Errico, and lots of adorable plushies and pins.
Here’s a look at what you might have missed:
- Some of the most exciting Comic-Con news yesterday came from Del Rey’s Star Wars books imprint, which will have a SDCC exclusive variant of Thrawn: Alliances.
And while you're there, check out this amazing variant on the Thrawn: Alliances cover art, which is going to be the cover for the San Diego Comic Con Exclusive edition of the book. #SDCC #StarWars

- Stubbins has created two San Diego Comic-Con exclusives this year, which will only be available for purchase at the Yes Anime Booth #4729. To commemorate the 30th anniversary of Street Fighter, you can pick up a plush Sakura in her fierce but fashionable school uniform, and the alternative of classic character Blanka in his popular Blanka-Chan costume. They’ll retail for $19.99 each.
- But there’s more good news from Stubbins, as they also revealed that Yoshinoro Ono — the executive producer of Street Fighter — will be at the Yes Anime Booth #4729 to sign autographs on Thursday, July 19 from 11AM-12PM and then again on Friday, July 20 from 11AM-12PM.
