Here is a look a the next wave of the Galactic Heroes.

In case you missed them last year, Hasbro is bringing back their own "dirty dozen" favorites from the Revenge of the Sith basic figures assortment. The figures and accessories are all old, but the cardbacks and numbering are new for The Episode III Heroes & Villains Collection.


More Evolution Cards On The Way From Topps


Bring your card collection full circle with the long-anticipated release from Topps -- the Star Wars Evolution: Update Edition, due out this summer.

When Topps first released the Star Wars: Evolution set in 2001, they took collectors on a journey down memory lane with cards that paid homage to the classic Star Wars experience by connecting it to the ongoing saga. The first set covered the classic and Episode I characters, with preview shots in the rare Evolution insert cards of some of the main Episode II characters.

Now that the film saga is complete, Star Wars Evolution: Update Edition includes many Episode II and III characters to round out the collection. The All-Foil Character Series also features the main original trilogy characters in looks not featured in the first set. The main set consists of 90 cards, featuring mostly characters. There will also be a small subset of creatures as well as ships and vehicles that have a distinctive personality themselves such as the Millennium Falcon, Slave I and the Death Star.

I did not see that in the corner. I thought that it was real with every thing that Hasbro has made with Star Wars.

From the dark legions of the Empire's intelligence reconnaissance agencies comes StarWarsShop's latest worldwide-exclusive action figure: Shadow Stormtrooper.



Here is a nice carded shot of the recently announce Hasbro SDCC exclusive 501st action figure. As you can see in the image Hasbro has mimicked the artwork used on the infamous 501st collector cards based on their own members. They've also included the official 501st logo, and made the collectible card removable so 501st members can insert their own, thus creating their very own action figure!

Hasbro went back to the only Kenner gold mine and has devised a modern version of the old two packs we saw at the end of the Return Of The Jedi line. While technically speaking, the original packs weren't Kenner, it's close enough. If all goes according to plans, there will be tin sets for each of the six films. Each pack will include one tin case with artwork from or inspired by the poster art.


A new shared-exclusive for fans and collectors: the Kir Kanos & Mystery Figure Expanded Universe 2-pack, which includes two brand new Hasbro action figures and a Dark Horse comic book! The mystery figure and comic book identities will be announced at the right time, and the right place!

Expanded Universe fans know Kir Kanos as a steadfast disciple of Palpatine's New Order even after the Empire's collapse, whose beliefs made him one of the most deadly fugitives in the galaxy. Kanos was a member of the Emperor's Royal Guards, the elite red-robed sentinels that guarded Palpatine during his rule. Kanos was an expert at the echani fighting form and in wielding a force pike. His fanatical loyalty, though, was his greatest and most dangerous weapon.

Kir Kanos and the mystery figure will represent the second and third entries in Hasbro's new line of Expanded Universe figures, which launched with StarWarsShop's exclusive Shadow Stormtrooper last month. Be sure not to miss out on these incredible exclusives!

Coming to Target this summer is the Rogue Two Snowspeeder with exclusive Zev Senesca. Original Trilogy fans will remember Zev, who has never immortalised in plastic before, as the pilot who spotted Han Solo and Luke Skywalker on the icey plains of Hoth
