Last month we reported that Retro Outlaw would be having a 12″ EVEL FETT at SDCC. If you are looking for something a bit more rare, you can hit up Booth 5051 for a limited edition Black & White version. It is limited to only 50 pieces. One lucky winner was able to win one of these at the Star Wars Fan Breakfast hosted by Star Wars Action News.
Hasbro has made available a selection of images from today’s panel at SDCC. Click on through to check out images of the Black Series (3.75″ & 6″), Saga Legends, Mission Series 2-packs, and New Class II Vehicle repaints.
Hasbro’s panel at SDCC revealed that the canceled Droid Factory figures will be offered through Amazon.com. They will they will be released in the canceled packaging design as well. They will be sold as a set for $59.99 this fall.

Today kicks of San Diego Comic-Con International 2013! On the first part of Star Wars Action News’ coverage join Marjorie and Arnie as they report on Preview Night, with a first-hand look at The Black Series figures in Hasbro’s display, including the new Black Series 6-inch Boba Fett and Han Solo in Carbonite!
Fans have been divided on the new 6-inch series, but Arnie has been excited for the detail and articulation. Now that the production figures are out, does the excitement last? Listen and find out!
Gentle Giant is holding true to their namesake and are working on articulated, life size versions of the original Kenner action figures. On display at SDCC is the first the Stormtrooper (teased yesterday by YodasNews) and word from Rebelscum is that they are working on Darth Vader featuring its signature vinyl cape and telescoping lightsaber.
Our friends at Galactic Hunter have snapped a pic from Hasbro’s booth showing a placard for an exclusive Droid Factory set coming this November for $59.99. It looks to include many of the canceled Build-A-Droids and other from the defunct Droid Factory line. Jedi Temple Archives received word at Toy Fair from Hasbro that they were trying to get these figures to the public, so it’s nice to see it’s coming to fruition.
Update: According to Galactic Hunter, the retail partner for this set is Amazon.com
