Just announced via Twitter, Mark Hamill is retiring from the autograph convention circuit (in the U.S.) and this year’s New York Comic Con will be the last place you’ll be able to get it!
UPDATE: Apparently, the NYCC Twitter feed was a bit “off the mark”, here is Mark’s official clarification:
As if figure and packaging variations weren’t enough, Casey B. tipped me off to a running change for the display frame for the Darth Vader Legacy Pack. First shipments (both red and brown eye variants) included a silver double racing stripe frame. Current shipments now feature white stripes (not the music band). Click the image above that I snapped for closer look.
Tonight we have a few more official images for the Forces of Destiny line to share. Click on through to check out in-pack shots of Rey of Jakku & BB-8, Jyn Erso, and Princess Leia Organa & R2-D2
