Toy R Us will open five of its UK stores at 12.01am on Friday, September 1 as it marks Force Friday II and the official launch of the toy line for Star Wars: The Last Jedi.

As part of the celebrations, the first 75 customers through the door at midnight at each of the stores will receive Star Wars giveaways. These will include a limited edition poster and t-shirt, as well as the chance to be among the first to purchase exclusive Star Wars merchandise in dedicated front-of-store feature shops.
