Rumor suggests that we will see a packaging revision for the 6″ Black Series in 2018. So far, Hasbro has elected to keep the same basic profile/shape since it’s inception. What do you think?

While were on a Han Solo tear, Toys”R”Us will be offering an exclusive Funko POP! figure next year. It is currently listed with a price of $9.99 and is simply labeled as “Ex Star Wars Red Cup* Pop”.
*Red Cup is the production name for the untitled Han Solo film.
Based on the our report from yesterday regarding the new Hero Series product names (Zeus and Vesta) found online, there is speculation/coincidence that these may be the first indicators that products for the untitled Han Solo movie could rely on Greek/Roman mythology to mask the character names from the film.

UPDATE 01/5/18: Names found so far: Zeus (Han), Athena (Qi’Ra), Vesta, Hercules (Chewbacca), Hermes (Lando), Artemis, Minotaur (Mimban), Gorgon, Cyclops, Perseus, Pegasus (Millennium Falcon), and Cronus (Moloch)
Hot Toys has posted a teaser via Facebook of their upcoming 1:6 scale Poe Dameron (Resistance Pilot) figure. Watch for a full reveal and preorder details soon.
After some internet scouring today, I found coded info (names/UPCs/SKUs) for 3 more 12″ Hero Series figures to be released beyond the assortment that includes Yoda and Kylo Ren. Click on through for the info.
Is this release date nightmare about over? GameStop has revised the release date once again for their exclusive 6″ Snoke with Throne to today (10/10), back from 10/20.
