Hey hey, it's the fanstream - and pre-orders are coming tomorrow. What's new?
Shop Disney/Hasbro Pulse split The Retro Collection 6-pack, with a nice-but-odd mix of Attack of the Clones Mace Windu, Jango Fett, and Padme Amidala with Revenge of the Sith Anakin Skywalker, General Grievous, and Clone Trooper. I'm looking forward to this.
As they warned, The Vintage Collection HasLab got punted to... we don't know when. But that's probably a good idea, because a lot of pre-orders are about to go live and we've only got so much money. A X-Wing Pilots 4-pack with a Duros and a green-skinned lady from... OK I admit I have no idea.
Pipeline reveals include Ahsoka's take on a live-action The Clone Wars Anakin Skywalker, a 4-pack of Shriek Hawk Mandalorians, and most enticing, a Pulse/ShopDisney exclusive Mandalorian Forge playset. Can they support the playset in a small exclusive offering? We shall see!
For The Black Series... well, there's not a lot of new new stuff. GameStop has a The Phantom Menace set of slightly different Qui-Gon Jinn, Darth Maul, and Obi-Wan Kenobi. Maul is a completely new sculpt. Fan Channel will be getting a Super Battle Droid as well as a Revenge of the Sith Darth Sidious. Hasbro Pulse will have a Yoda/Commander Gree 2-pack, inspired by The Clone Wars as a Clones of the Republic pack. Walmart will have Enoch and a Night Trooper from Ahsoka. Pipeline reveals include original Star Wars Rebel Fleet Trooper vs. Stormtrooper sets, farmboy Luke Skywalker, classic Princess Leia, and from the games, Dagan. How new the molds are, we don't know yet.
