It appears that the next potential exclusive for SDCC/Hasbro Pulse is Vintage Collection related and features the long-awaited Emperor Palpatine with Throne. If this is true, it may explain the why the rumored figure has been held back from being revealed with its other case mates for it to debut in this set.

Thanks to an Instagram post from professiorbtoyshop, it appears that there is a Black Series Cantina Set of sorts which may be one of the SDCC/Hasbro Pulse Exclusives which we reported on back in May.
This set features an(other) Obi-Wan Kenobi with photoreal likeness as well as two new figures Ponda Baba and Dr. Evazan and a portion of the cantina’s bar and dispensery. This potential set is in keeping with how Hasbro has released figures in the past like last year’s Heroes of Endor Set since we know (unofficially) that both “Walrusman” and “Roofoo” are coming in the standard Black Series line later this year.
Revealed today via our friends at From 4LOM to Zuckuss, Hasbro Pulse and ShopDisney will offering starting tomorrow, preorders for 3 new Lucasfilm 50th Anniversary Commemorative 6″ Figures replicating the POTF2 line from 1995. Figures include Greedo “Spoon”, Han Solo “Fork” and Luke Skywalker. Preorders open at 1pm EDT.
It was a pretty good day for Hasbro as they dropped a lot of official announcements for the Black Series and Vintage Collection with preorders for most starting tomorrow at 1pm ET.

Looks like there is a possibility of an 11th Black Series figure to join the reveals for tomorrow’s Hasbro Pulse event. As we mentioned before, there is another Gaming Greats Black Series figure that slots in between the Flametrooper 03 and the Nightbrother Warrior 05 figures. It should go up for preorders this week – probably on Thursday.
Collectors are in for a big couple days starting tomorrow at 11ET as Hasbro kicks off their I AM YOUR FATHER’S DAY Livestream on YouTube. As we’ve been teasing for a few weeks there are a lot of reveals expected for both The Black Series and The Vintage Collection. Like some previous events, reveals will happen tomorrow with preorders launching the following day (Thursday). Without spilling all the beans, we are pretty certain of the Black Series offerings (Archive and Rogue One reissues), TVC collectors should be pleasantly surprised (although many seem perpetually indignant) with the number of reveals.
Short and sweet. Here is a quick rundown of the reveals/confirmations shown at today’s special Fan First Tuesday event.

As announced at today’s Hasbro Pulse Fan Fest Preview for Hasbro Premium Members, Hasbro will be launching a fans choice poll for one of the five figures above to be reissued from “the vault”. It will be interesting to see who comes out on top.
From the outset of its reveal yesterday, fans were quick to point out that the Carnor Jax figure shown was actually Kir Kanos. Hasbro has made an official change to the product page for this figure stating the following:
Please be aware that this character was mislabeled Carnor Jax on packaging when it is in fact Kir Kanos. We apologize for the oversight and want to assure you that we are constantly refining our processes to provide our fans with the high quality, accurate figures they expect from us.
Hasbro Pulse Fan Fest is a front row seat to engaging brand panels, behind-the-scenes content, product reveals, and exciting interactivity, all in celebration of the people that inspire us to do what we do every day: our Fans. The schedule is filled with exciting brand panels that will offer fans exclusive news and opportunities to secure their favorite products before anyone else*, as well as special guest appearances, product giveaways, and more! This event will be hosted by SYFY Wire on-air correspondent, writer, and producer, Jackie Jennings, and available to watch exclusively on Hasbro Pulse YouTube.
