Pre-New York Toy Fair Reveals

For those expecting reveals about upcoming Hasbro products this last week from the UK Toy Fair held in London, were sadly disappointed as practically nothing was officially announced. James Burns of Jedinews.co.uk did provide an update via the official Star Wars website: Hasbro — The future of the Black Series, both 3¾” and 6” lines, looks great and there will be a number of new figures coming in [...]

The Creation Motivation for Saga Legends Figures

Arnie, host of Star Wars Action News Podcast, was able to get some great insight as to why Hasbro has begun making less articulated Star Wars action figures.  The super-collector and his fellow collector and wife Marjorie attended last week's San Diego Comic-Con and spoke directly to Hasbro's action figure team.  In the interview with Derryl DePriest (Vice President of Global Brand Management at Hasbro, Inc. and also fellow action figure collector) reveals why at this point in time Hasbro choose to make the 6 inch TBS figures and if this would cut into the amount of 3 3/4" figures that Hasbro can now release.  Another bit of good news was the confirmation that the next waves of The Black Series, Saga Legends and Mission Series [...]
