Partnering
with Starwars once again this year, 7-11 delighted Starwars fans by giving them the opportunity to own a Starwars themed character tumbler and exclusive Starwars
pouches for the avid fan and collector in them.
Whenever
you buy a 650 ml (22 oz) GULP for 89 pesos you automatically get a hard plastic
Starwars-themed tumbler that now comes with a hard plastic cover. The cover sort of
looks like the head of that droid Chopper from the Starwars Rebels TV Series. Here's a side by side comparison to prove my point.

The
tumbler comes in three design: Kylo Ren, First Order Storm Trooper and BB-8 each
with their corresponding tumbler cover. The tumbler is nicely designed and is a
welcome addition to any Starwars collectors.
My
one only gripe about this is that it would be nice if it came with a Starwars-themed straw like last year's Kylo Ren cross guard inspired straw. Not to mention
the Starwars logo is barely visible in the Kylo and First Order Stormtrooper tumblers but
that's just me being picky.
The tumbler is identical to the size of the 7-11 Force Awaken tumblers they released back in 2015 so it's safe to assume that the covers fit both of them.
In
addition to this you can also get Limited Edition Starwars pouches when you
avail of 7-11 Big Bite for 85 pesos. There are four designs as advertised but
sadly after checking out at least 7 of the branches of 7-11, I only got 2 of them available that of Ray and BB8. I'm hoping the
Captain Phazma and the Kylo Ren pouches will be available when the movie is finally
showing in the Philippines which is just days away.
The
pouches are nicely made and is big enough to hold most cell phones. The pouches
is made from vinyl so you can expect some form of protection from the elements
mainly dust and rain. It even has a sketch of BB8 and Ren at the back with the Starwars the Last Jedi logo at the back.
The
tumbler and the pouches might seem pricey but if you consider how these things
are, 7-11 exclusive items and how the prices of the Starwars items of the same
type ranges around online and the likes these items is clearly a must have for both fans and collectors alike.
