Hasbro’s Star Wars Brand Team held a Google Hangout with groups of several fan sites to answer questions regarding their various lines. Below you will find links the questions and answers that some of the sites submitted.
Last week I posted word of a handful of potential exclusives coming from Hasbro in late 2020. Today I can publish 10 hints to aid in your speculation.
For this group of 5 exclusives: None are clone characters None are Jedi/or former Jedi characters None are members of The Ghost crew characters None are PT characters None are OT characters None are ST characters One item is TVC One figure is an alien One is a vehicle Two items have never been released by Hasbro before All five are related by their source material
As I mentioned in the previous report, it will be interesting to see how these are distributed due to the cancellation/closure of large venues.
While I can’t go into specifics yet, it looks like there will be a few more exclusives revealed soon for the Black Series and TVC lines. Of the 5 I’ve confirmed, they are all reissues/repaints – *one of which has been long requested – and there are possibly 2 more that may fit in well with a certain anniversary line of product out right now*. That all being said, it will be interesting to see how they are distributed considering the closure of large venues right now.
More details as we can provide them.
UPDATE: *Han in Carbonite and **this was 4-LOM and Zuckuss
Tomorrow at 12PM ET, Hasbro Pulse will be livestreaming new product reveals and preorder info for new Black Series and Vintage Collection products. If you’ve been following our rumor reports over the past couple months, there won’t be too many surprises, if any.
May 1 at 12pm ET, Hasbro will have their first ever Fan First Friday livestream event on Hasbro Pulse Facebook. They will be sharing news about your favorite SW figure lines. Plus, there might be a couple preorders as well.
A follow up report from @staleconversations on Instagram lets us know that the PhotoReal/Repaint wave of Vintage Collection has turned up at Target in Virginia. Sadly, he suggests that C-3PO may be the best of the bunch due to questionable application of deco on the human figures. Click on through to check out additional images of this wave.
Thank you Hasbro for not printing “Kay-Tuesso” in the name pill.
Hasbro has released a card mock up today for K-2SO from the Vintage Collection as part of their new Fan First Friday promotion.
