“I think I’m going to faint when I get home,” said Liam Motzing, 8. “I have never seen anything like this in

Fans grabbed BB-8 droids, cross-shaped lightsabers, and action figures.
They included a saber-wielding Jedi from Queens. Michael DeGuzman, 34, dressed in Jedi robes and only battled the summer heat.
"I don't know how Obi-Wan wore this in the heat of Tatooine," DeGuzman joked.
“Star Wars” couple Denny Angurias and Pamela Floros, both 22, said they trekked from someplace far, far away – Montreal – for the big reveal.
