Entertainment Weekly The Millennium Falcon No Han Solo movie toy line could exist without his trusty steed and Hasbro brings us yet another new version to collect.

Solo’s Super Bowl Teaser

Lucasfilm finally broke their moratorium on the promotion of Solo: A Star Wars Story. The 45-second teaser, which aired during the second commercial break in the US, presumably costs Disney $7.5 million dollars as Sports Illustrated has reported that NBC Sports charged $5 million per 30-second spots during Super Bowl LII. This teaser is exciting and nostalgic and we are now counting the hours until the full trailer debuts tomorrow during Good Morning America. This seems to be the weekend for Solo as a handful of leaked images appeared online this morning from the final day of the Nuremberg Toy Fair. This bolds well for New York Toy Fair to present us with an official debut of the stand-alone line of toys and figures. New York Toy Fair [...]
