With Galaxy’s Edge heading our way fast, one of the many, MANY elements to look forward to is the app which will morph into a Star Wars styled app once within the confines of the park. To accompany this a number of fans have made their own kit-bashed phone covers, making their earthly mobile phones look and feel like GFFA com units.
Marvel at the great work here by Nick Tierce, Bruce Wright and Brian Kesinger.
While mine is still on the workbench, here’s a peek at the fruit of my fellow traveler’s labor. I think they did an amazing job, each reflecting their own unique character. I can’t wait to hit the streets of Black Spire with them next week for a new adventure.

We had a kitbash party with enough “greeblies” to outfit our phone cases to look like in-universe datapads!
Here’s @linneabnd, @DavidMDaut, & @hastin hard at work with a mountain of vintage model kit part trees, just like the ones used by the original Star Wars prop makers: pic.twitter.com/craO1vmTsw
