Toys”R”Us Exclusive “Epic Battles” 6 Packs Hitting Stores

No, it’s not as delicious as it sounds – actually it’s quite sad. As we discussed last night on The Realm Recap, Hasbro has repacked last year’s Digital Release Commemorative Collection sets into two exclusive “Epic Battles” six packs for Toys”R”Us.

This would have been a great opportunity to release a Ghost crew pack from Star Wars Rebels with an accompanying Empire set.
