New 6" Black Series Coming From Hasbro

I could see a limited run for the comic figure line, but they would need a kitbash character. Hasbro loves to reuse assets.

This also just isn't the era when anything and everything would get a toy line. Gone are the days when there was a unique action figure line of live action Clone Wars figures *and* a line of Tartakovsky CW figures. Or Shadows of the Empire, for that matter. Or the old Comic Packs.

Hasbro is very very risk adverse at this time, and without a movie or tv series set during the High Republic they really won't do anything in that space.

There will be something for The Acolyte.

Spoiler

so maybe a Wookiee Jedi figure then

 

It would be nice if someone did some very limited edition figure merch for The High Republic. They can sell it at like Barnes and Noble and/or Forbidden Planet or something of the sort so it would stay in the book realm.

 

Given the success of The High Republic books and comics, there should be some market for a limited run of figures. I wouldn’t expect anything other than the central characters, maybe Avar, Bell, Elzar, Stellan and Marchion Ro.

I agree with @Dawud786 that Hasbro are very risk-averse. That said, they’ve rolled the dice on characters like Jaxxon. So, I remain hopeful that we’ll see something from The High Republic. Unfortunately, the more time that passes, the less likely that becomes.

 

As a heads up to everyone - my favorite toy discount website Kidswhs has a bunch of Black Series figures at greatly reduced prices. They also have the Vintage Collection Mandalorian bar playset for $25.

 

I"ll have to check that out

 

I went to a Target during my lunch break and scored big.

They had the whole current wave and a bunch of the Kenobi stuff.

I bought TCW Maul, Grand Inquisitor and Aayla Secura.

Saw Axe Woves, Mando season Greef Karga and a bunch of others. ROTJ 40th deluxe Boba. NED-B. Credit Collection Ahsoka.

 

SWEET!!!

THE JEDI. Commemorate the 40th Anniversary of STAR WARS: RETURN OF THE JEDI with this DARTH
VADER figure from The Black Series, featuring classic design and packaging! This premium 6-inch DARTH

Who is ready for Malgus?

 

I am I have been waiting for him

 

Ki-Adi Mundi, ROtJ Vader and Darth Malgus are great reveals. Looking forward to all of those.

 

Me too

 

When does the Pre-Order for Malgus start?

 

Yeah I was wondering that as well

 

I'm betting those will be around SDCC time.

 

Good point

 

Is it possible that pre-orders could go up after Celebration Europe? If anything else, pretty sure they'll have them up for display during that weekend.

True or after SDCC
