Obi-Wan Kenobi (Wandering Jedi) Press Release

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mXdBNPDIA2o Yesterday, the action figure of the wandering Jedi and star of the Obi-Wan Kenobi Disney+ series went up for preorder across the web. While the product description does state this figure will be out a good year following the release of the live-action series, our sources have produced information to the contrary. We have received multiple reports stating this figure will be out this Fall. Also in the clip above, Ewan McGregor is presented with a packaged sample which includes the soon-to-be-removed plastic packaging window but Hasbro has stated they will remove all plastic by the end of 2022. So while Star Wars Hasbro figures continue to lag behind their media releases (unlike their Marvel counterparts), fans and collectors will be receiving this product [...]
