In February we brought you the first look at the Yoda line look Lucas Licensing has planned for merchandise in 2013 to coincide with the Attack of the Clones in 3D marketing. On friday, SDCC hosted a Star Wars Collectibles panel and within the presentation you can see confirmation of this theme throughout first few pages of the slideshow. To learn what was discussed at the panel, check out JediInsider.com
We’ve updated our link to the sites providing coverage of SDCC to include additional sites as well as separate links (where applicable) to interviews/QnAs conducted with Hasbro. Check them out at here. If you would like your site included in this list, feel free to contact me at the via the “Contact Us” on the right column.

The headline says it all. Hasbro said during their SDCC panel that there would be no CVI exclusive this year. Sad. Just sad.

Hasbro let one slip out of the bag at SDCC preview night as they briefly had a new Luminara Unduli on display in one of their showcases. But before it could be swept away, the crew at Sandtroopers.com managed to get a few shots of her. Head on over to their Hasbro Gallery for a closer inspection.
What was once just a rumor is now confirmed via a spy report from Sir Steve’s Guide showing a page from Hasbro’s upcoming slideshow. The Build-A-Droid concept is back for 2013! Head over to check out their images and report.
