Hasbro has sent out notifications to Hasbro Pulse Premium Members to reserve a spot in line for their booth at SDCC in order to purchase exclusives. First come, first served.
All reservations requests are due by Monday June 24, 2019 at 9:00 AM EST.
Thanks to YogiKai for the heads up.
UPDATE: Reservations are now full and the page removed.
UPDATE 2: New link added.
Collectors are starting to receive their wave 21 cases of 6” Black Series figures which includes the Obi-Wan Kenobi (Padawan) figure first offered as a Star Wars Celebration exclusive. Collector Matt Z. noticed upon opening the Obi-Wan that he doesn’t include either of the extra hand accessories from the exclusive, despite Hasbro Pulse website showing the two-figures outstretched hand in one of the loose photos.
You may recall a similar solicitation imagery mix-up with the retail 6” Bespin Han Solo being shown with the pointer figure hand which was only available in last year’s convention exclusive Exogorth Escape Set.
Bummer, I guess that will make the SWCC Version all that more desirable.
Hasbro Pulse has sent out notifications that those who signed up for the Premium Membership (free or paid) will be extended past 12/31/19 for 12 months from the date you originally signed. The extension is automatic and free. In 2020, they will ask if you want to join an opt-in auto-renewal membership.
They also state that free continental U.S. shipping will continue and to watch for more perks soon.
Hasbro Pulse has removed the exclusive 6″ Black Series 20th Anniversary Obi-Wan and Darth Maul figures from its website.
For those lucky enough to get the Celebration Exclusive 6” Obi-Wan and Darth Maul 20th Anniversary figures, Hasbro Pulse has started processing and shipping orders.
Thanks to Francisco for the alert.
HasbroPulse.com has now opened orders for the 20th Anniversary Obi-Wan and Darth Maul Black Series figure from Star Wars Celebration Chicago.
Update: Up and sold out
Hasbro Pulse will be offering their Star Wars Celebration Exclusive Obi-Wan Kenobi and Darth Maul on May 4 at 1pm ET.
In case you hadn’t had your fill of SWCC coverage, here is a gallery of images that I captured at Hasbro’s booth.
For those eager to get their hands on a set of the Celebration Exclusive Darth Maul and Obi-Wan, a bit of history. For Celebration Orlando (April 13-16, 2017), the Celebration Luke went on sale April 25 (9 days later, or two Tuesdays after the show). Tomorrow will be two Tuesdays after the close of Celebration Chicago. To be clear, I have no inside info on their pending release via HasbroPulse, but bookmarking this hidden page may be helpful.
update: A few people have said that Hasbro reps at SWCC said that these may go up for order on May 4. That would coincide with a couple other Hasbro releases planned for that day as well.
Hasbro Pulse has sent out emails to Hasbro Pulse Premium Members for passes* to a special VIP line at Star Wars Celebration. Passes are available first come, first served.
*VIP passes do not guarantee product availability
Update: Reservations are now closed.
