If you didn’t follow Hasbro’s other Toy Fair presentations (namely Marvel), you many have missed that they are producing army builder Hydra Troopers for their Marvel Legends line as a Hasbro Pulse exclusive. These figures come with a weaopn in a sealed baggie and packed in a window-less box for only $14.99 each. When word of this came out, I thought the Black Series line could use something similar for stormtroopers and clones. Above is an example of this concept which I hope Hasbro has in the works, or at least something like it.
Hasbro will be presenting their NYTF coverage this year via a livestream on their Facebook channel. We will be aggregating their news and info (pertaining to Star Wars only) after the break. Please keep comment focused on the Star Wars brand only, thanks.

We’ve received and read several reports of collectors receiving their shipments of convention exclusives from Hasbro Pulse with varying degrees of damage. Boba Fett with crushed blisters, Jedi Legacy packs with folded over/creased upper tabs due to being packed into small of a box, and Sith Trooper boxes crushed or torn. Hopefully these reports are in the minority, especially with the lengths collectors had to go through to even be able to order them (aside from the Luke Set).
