Rumor Report: Possible SDCC/Hasbro Pulse Exclusive Black Series Cantina Set Leaked?
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.

Some interesting choices for sure but this one was the most surprising.
