Lucca Comics and Games Press Release and Images

This past weekend was another busy one for Hasbro's Star Wars Brand Team as they held two different panels while wrapping up their EU Convention tour.

But at this show they included four additional reveals for the Vintage Collection in the form of another wave of online exclusive reissues.

Igloo’s New Kenner Tumbler

A huge thanks to our good friend Paul Van Dyk for the heads up on a new modern Kenner Star Wars action figure item.

While this tumbler looks great, the images themselves are quite inaccurate when it comes to the vintage Kenner figure line. You can find the link for this item which is still listed as coming soon here. STAR WARS MINT IN BOX 16 OZ STAINLESS STEEL CAN TUMBLER The exciting new Star Wars x Igloo collection showcases the worldwide pop-culture phenomenon featuring iconic images and original artwork from the beloved saga.
