Hasbro Q & A from Star Wars Celebration

During the first few hours of Star Wars Celebration, we were given the opportunity to interview Hasbro in regards to their current and upcoming Star Wars action figure lines. Now prior to the show, Hasbro made it clear that they were unable to answer questions about any unannounced product scheduled for Fall 2015 or beyond. Below is our Q & A and at the bottom we have provided links to other Hasbro Q & As conducted by other members of the action figure collector media. From 4-LOM to Zuckuss: Jake Stevens here From4-LOMtoZukcuss.com.

NY Toy Fair ’15 – What We Expect

Now that New York Toy Fair is just under 3 weeks away, we have begun speculating about what will be shown at the annual Hasbro Presentation. What we expect from Rebels Saga Legends Last week's Jedi Temple Archives reveal helped to answer some early questions about what type of figures we'll be getting in the next year. And the answer to that is clearly Original Trilogy centered as in JTA's reveal it was shown that we are getting 3 more Return of the Jedi figures, 1 Revenge of the Sith figure and 0 Star Wars Rebels figures past number SL14 AT-DP Driver. Yes of the 25 figures announced so far, only 8 are based on Star Wars Rebels, the line featured on the very [...]

Episode 7 Cameo in Star Wars #1

Did Marvel's Star Wars #1 just give us an appearance of an Episode 7 alien? Yesterday Marvel Comics returned to the galaxy far, far away for the first time in close to 30 years. Their return to publishing Star Wars comics was promoted at comic book shops across the country with "Welcome Home" parties that included free swag. The premiere issue of the ongoing series is set to break comic book records by selling 1 million copies. This was helped by the creation of about 100 different cover variants that were made available at numerous exclusive locations (our sympathies to completest collectors).  In our extremely biased opinion the best by far was the incredible cover by John Tyler Christopher which payed tribute to Kenner's vintage action figure line! Now in the story, which [...]
