Hasbro Toys: The Force Awakens
We’ve seen the official trailer countless times, some great concept art, and even some apparent 6″ scale figure prototypes, but there are so many questions on what direction Hasbro is going to be taking with the toy line for The Force Awakens.
Another cool art image was recently revealed by Indie Revolver, which appears to show a very cool new ship design for the next film. How would this translate into a toy? Pretty awesome, one would think, if Hasbro chooses to make it. Hopefully we’ll get a taste of what’s coming in February during Toy Fair. Until then, head on over to the forums to join in the EP7 toy discussions, and remember, spoilers apply.
