Christmas is only 2 weeks away and the wonderful folks at R2-KT have got you covered with another selection of gorgeous patches, and as always KT’s manservant Albin Johnson is here to bring you all the news you need.
Droid friends, The 2023 Christmas patches are in production and ready for order!
This year we wanted to celebrate a Christmas tradition from Scandinavia some people may not be familiar with. Both R2-KT designs feature her in a candle-lit wreath on her head, commemorating St. Lucy’s Day which is celebrated in Scandinavia and Italy.
For the full story on St. Lucy’s Day, celebrated December 13th, check out this article: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saint_Lucy%27s_DayWe are also bringing back a classic Imperial Christmas patch we last ran in 2013. Many fans were asking about this after we posted the design on Facebook. So here’s your chance to get it!
* Patch #1: “Saint Lucy” features KT along with R2-F1P (from the Solo movie) and R2-D2, all wishing the world peace. (this is patch #18 in the R2-KT Christmas series)
* Patch #2: “KT and Shin” features KT riding shot-gun with Shin Hati, the amazing Force-sensitive character from the Ahsoka series. The duo are riding forth to spread light this Holiday season and wish everyone a Merry Christmas. This is an alternate design created by Dave Liew and to be honest, is just so breathtakingly beautiful we knew fans would want it run too. (this is patch #19 in the R2-KT Christmas series)
* Patch #3: “Detention Block 2551: Mostly Naughty, a Little Nice” was originally released ten years ago. The design now celebrates Detention Block 2551, the original website of the 501st Squad when it was created way back in 1997. Echoing the charity work of our Star Wars clubs, the Stormtroopers prepare to build toys to pacify the children living under the Empire. (this is the first in the Detention Block 2551 Christmas series; the original series was called the 501st North Pole Mission patch series)
