Now that we’ve all had time to calm down since SDCC and come to terms with the fact that Hasbro is severely hamstrung by Lucasfilm (which is nothing new in a summer before a film release), we are here to put some lipstick on that puffer pig and remind you of what we can expect* for the rest of the year and beyond by recapping over 30 EXCLUSIVE RUMOR REPORTS that you won’t read anywhere else, and if you do, they were likely reposted/referenced from this site (usually without attribution).

Over a year ago, we began multiple rounds of fan voting by Yakface readers to help identify just which figures our readers wanted to see Hasbro make the most from The Vintage Collection and The Black Series.

The final numbers are in, and we have posted them in our forums.  I think it’s safe to say that the interest in the Original Trilogy still holds very strong based on these results, and both 3.75″ and 6″ totals came to the same “Most Wanted” figure.

Episode IX Sith Trooper Revealed

Leave a comment

The official site has officially revealed the first merchandise from Star Wars The Rise of Skywalker which heavily features the new Sith Trooper! This 6″ Black Series figure will be available at SDCC for $32 and via HasbroPulse.com – check out the full reveals from Hasbro, Funko, Hot Toys and more at StarWars.com.

UPDATE: This announcement confirms our long-standing rumor reports and speculation of the Black Series and Vintage Collection “Bruges Red” trooper being this figure. There will also be a rocket trooper version this figure (with a different helmet) plus an exclusive 6″ Black Series metallic version all yet to be officially revealed.
