Images of new Hasbro product from Solo: A Star Wars Story have made their way online from Nuremberg Toy Fair. We get our first look at Han Solo, Qi’Ra, Range Trooper, Lando Calrissian, Kessel Guard, TIE Fighter, and more.
Stay tuned later today for some new Hasbro product release details we’ve found.
Pilot Studio has posted an Instagram video showcasing Gregory Titus’ illustration process for producing the artwork for the Black Series packaging. In the quick video, you can see what looks to be a 6″ Momaw Nadon (Hammerhead) figure used as reference for the sketch. I guess we’ll find out more in a couple weeks at Toy Fair.
UPDATE: It appears that the figure above being used (as reference for a potential Black Series figure) is a Sideshow 1:6 scale figure. Thanks to Instagram follower @Star_Wars_memes_501 for the update.
UPDATE 2: Pilot Studio posted on our Instagram page the following:
They have also removed the video from their Instagram feed and posted this statement.
As we shared yesterday on Twitter, Entertainment Earth has listed the Padme Amidala (Naboo) Adventure Figure (C3521) back on their site for release in March. The Padmé Amidala Mission Set (E1508) that we first reported here is still cancelled. The Mission Set was to have included 2 outfits (Naboo and Geonosis) similar to the Endor Adventure Leia figure.

Here’s some good news regarding the Forces of Destiny line. The Luke with Yoda Adventure Figure set is in stock and ready to ship from sponsor Entertainment Earth.
Another one bites the dust. Entertainment Earth has sent notifications to those who preordered the Forces of Destiny Sabine Wren with Graffiti Speeder that this item is now cancelled. We initially posted the rumor of its pending released back in December. Things are looking dire for those Creatures and Droids adventure packs we reported as well, at least in the U.S.
Thanks to Star Wars Collector for the heads-up.
