NORTH TEXAS (CBSDFW.COM) - The owners of Order 66 Toys Inc. in McKinney said that the premiere of Rogue One: A Star Wars Story equals big business for them.
"This is a huge week for us and we have been counting down for 300 days," said store co-owner, Jeffrey Derrazo.
Derrazo and his son, Joshua, own the store and they anticipate a hectic few weeks to come following the release of the movie.
"Everyone will have a new character that they love,' said Jeffrey Derazzo.
The store shelves are stuffed with Star Wars figurines and collectors' items that span the decades. Prices for the items range from $5 to $30,000. Derrazo said that they have a limited edition reel of film from a Star Wars trailer that's worth close to $30,000.
The two store owners said that they have big expectations for the premiere and what follows.
"It's really going to be something special,' said Joshua, '"No one is sure what to expect from it."
