188. May The North Be With You: A Special Look At This Year's Star Wars Canadian Convention! (Pt. 2)

Star Wars: Prototypes and Production

There’s been an awakening…in the North! In the previous episode, we learned about the history of May The North Be With You, a Canadian Star Wars convention started by members of the Ontario Alliance. May The North stands out among other conventions, as it offers a more intimate, VIP-level experience. Each May The North weekend features legends who worked with George Lucas on the original trilogy as well as the designers of the Kenner toys, and the collectors who helped shape the hobby. But what does the Ontario team have planned for this year’s event? What can attendees expect from an August weekend in the Toronto region? And which special guests will be delivering memorable panels for a truly unforgettable experience? Join host David Quinn for part two of a conversation about the history of May The North with Toby Black and Jimmy Mac MacCallum, two of the collectors behind the “boutique convention.” This is why you need to consider adding Canada to your travel list. And this is Star Wars: Prototypes and Production!
