He has a solid and intimidating look, so go ahead and army build if you can find enough of him!

Since the actual San Diego Comic Con itself has been canceled, at least the physical version, many have been wondering how or where they will be able to get their hands on Hasbro's exclusives this year. Well Walmart has launched a Comic-Con exclusive section on their website which features a countdown clock showing just over 4 days until launch (As I post this). This section appears to be an area comprised of various 2020 SDCC exclusives Walmart will be selling this year from various companies. While no actual product for Hasbro is yet listed, there is this banner on display there that has logos for several Hasbro brands including Star Wars: The Black Series. We have no idea how many exclusives Star Wars might get this year. Hasbro mentioned something about a Black Series exclusive in their last Fan-Channel live-stream event but have yet to provide any details about it. It's also not known if the Vintage Collection will get an exclusive this year or not. While it seems like a good bet Walmart will be a place to get Hasbro's exclusives, it's not clear if all of Hasbro's exclusives will be offered through Walmart or if Walmart is the only place people will be able to get them. It also isn't clear if any of these exclusives will be available at physical stores or just online. All those details I am sure will be coming soon from Hasbro.

While not officially confirmed by Hasbro, we have gotten multiple confirmations that a report first made by Goodiestoyz seems to be on the mark. They reported that Hasbro plans on re-releasing the 6" Black Series Rebels figures as fan-channel exclusives this coming August. These figures include Ezra Bridger, Chopper (C1-10P), Ahsoka Tano, Kanan Jarrus, Sabine Wren and Hera Syndulla. The reports also indicate that for the first time the final member of the Rebels team, Zeb will be released as a deluxe figure. It's unclear if the previously released Rebels characters will be straight up re-issues, or if there will be any modifications made to them like the implementation of Hasbro's new face print technology for the headsculpts. While likely being primarily just re-issues, we did come up with some suggestions Hasbro might implement to differentiate these figures more from the previous ones, if Hasbro really wanted to go the extra mile. WARNING: The following contains spoilers from the Rebels Animated Series. For Ezra, we would love to see an additional headsculpt featuring Ezra with the short hair he started sporing in the later seasons as well as including his green lightsaber. With Kanan we think it would be cool if Hasbro included an alternate blinded head with helmet. For Sabine, an easy addition would be including the Dark Saber which she had in her possession for a time during the show. I am sure Hasbro could then re-use it with future Mandalorian TV series figures. Hasbro could also repaint the entire figure and give us a new headsculpt to replicate the older look she had at the end of the final episode. Hasbro might need to save that look for a future Mandalorian TV series figure though. Hera's look did change that much throughout the show making it harder to change up the figure much. In one episode she is seen wearing a A-Wing pilot outfit, however that look would likely require a completely new figure. Another option could be doing the outfit she had on at the end of the final episode. It was very similar to her previous outfit, but did have some minor differences. Maybe Hasbro could throw in Hera's kid as an added bonus mini-figure if they went that route... yeah probably not. It would be hard to improve upon the previous Chopper figure Hasbro gave us, but they could always repaint him with his Imperial disguise as seen in one of the episodes. The only thing I could see added for Ahsoka, is if they added that cloak and staff she was wearing at the end of the final episode, but again this might be something Hasbro may need to use for a future Mandarloian TV series figure.

May The 4th, Star Wars day is almost upon us, which means we can likely expect some new Star Wars product reveals to be made by Hasbro in the coming days. May The 4th also happens to be the day that the final episode for the final season of The Clone Wars animated series airs on Disney+. With that I have devised a Top 10 list of characters featured in the final season, that I hope Hasbro has plans for making 6” Black Series figures of in the near future. If you haven’t been watching the final season of Clone Wars, I highly recommend that you do, but also I want to warn you that this article does contain SPOILERS from the show. So read on at your own risk. 10. Marg-Krim This is the leader of the Pyke Syndicate at the time of the Clone Wars. You may recall this organization from the Solo: A Star Wars Story movie. This one comes in at number 10, more for the character design than the character itself. The story-arc which featured this character in my opinion was the weakest of the season, but I really think this character has an interesting look that would translate nicely into an action figure. I could have just as easily thrown in one of the many different versions of Mandalorian armors we see in this season, but I have two specific Mandalorian characters already on the list, so I wanted to mix things up a bit. 09. Darth Maul Maul is back again and badder than ever. While we still have two more episodes in the season, I really like where they are taking things with Maul, and how they are connecting things with the movies. We’ve already gotten a Phantom Menace version of Maul in the Black Series line, but he does have a different look here, so I think it’s worth giving him an updated figure. 08. Ahsoka Tano Clone Trooper Ahsoka, like Maul also returns for this final season. I don’t have Ahsoka on the list, because we already have the recent figure based on her appearance in the Rebels animated series. In this latest story arc, the 501st and Captain Rex pay tribute to Ahsoka by painting her markings on their armor. While Rex soon after removed the markings, the other clones keep them on for the battle at Mandalore. I would like to see Hasbro do one of these Clone Troopers with the Ahsoka markings, that you can then army build. 07. Admiral Trench This is one of the leaders of the Battle Droid forces, and he has a really cool look that I think would translate well into an action figure. Who wouldn’t want a big giant looking spider-dude commanding their robot army? 06. Bo-Katan Kryze This is a character who has made a significant impact on the Star Wars Universe. She first appeared in earlier seasons of The Clone Wars, as well as returning for this final season. She has also appeared in The Rebels series, and frankly I wouldn’t be surprised if she doesn’t end up playing some type of role in The Mandalorian live-action series as well. After all, she was the last known person to wield the Darksaber before it turned up in the season 1 finale of The Mandalorian. This character is also voiced by Battle Star Galactica Alum Katee Sackhoff, who I could easily see making the transition to a live-action. Kryze is definitely deserving of the action figure treatment. 05 - 02 - The Bad Batch Clone Troopers (Hunter, Crosshair, Wrecker and Tech) This unique group of Clones kicked off the final season with a multi-part story arc, and became instant fan favorites. The group consists of four different looking and acting troopers with the desire to kick ass. Tech was probably my favorite of the four, followed by Wrecker. I hope Hasbro ends up doing all four, and I would even be open to releasing them as a 4-pack. 01 - Gar Saxon The number one figure I want to see made from the final season of Clone Wars is Gar Saxon. Like Kryze, he has history that expands beyond the confines of this one series. Beyond that, I also love the look of his armor. The color scheme and helmet pay tribute to his leader Darth Maul, and I love how the yellow glow on his visor stands out. Even his jetpack looks bad ass. Hasbro, in my opinion would be crazy if they don’t make this guy into an action figure. So there is my list. Lets see if Hasbro announces any of these over the next few days as we celebrate May The 4th Star Wars Day.

Every day you turn around there seems to be a new Hasbro Star Wars rumor popping up, and honestly it's pretty hard to keep up with them all. Here are a few I have done some digging into, and been able to confirm from a couple different trusted sources they are legit. While I feel pretty confident these are coming, we will treat these as rumors until Hasbro officially confirms them, which will likely be this weekend during Toy Fair. This first one really seems like an odd choice, but it looks like Hasbro is going to be releasing a 6" Black Series Snowspeeder vehicle for $100+. I know it's the 40th Anniversary of the Empire Strikes Back, but if they were going to do another large scale vehicle, I would have thought they would finally give us the X-Wing we were supposed to get several years ago. To me a Snowspeeder seems kind of pointless unless we had a 6" AT-AT to go with it. Who knows maybe that will be Hasbro's next big Haslab announcement???? Other Black Series rumors we are pretty confident about getting a second wave of Empire Strikes Back Vintage Carded figures that will include Luke Skywalker (Hoth), Lando (Bespin), Hoth Rebel Soldier, R2-D2, and TIE Pilot. Also look for carbonized versions of an Imperial Stormtrooper and Boba Fett which should be available at most online retailers that carry Black Series. For you Vintage Collection fans it looks like we will be getting another $150+ Slave-1 coming. This may just be a re-release or modified version of the one we got back in 2013 as a Amazon exclusive. Again, until Hasbro officially confirms these, treat these all as rumor.

t0ytime via wingorlose has discovered a listing in the EBGames system that indicates we will soon be getting a 6" scale Black Series Imperial Probe Droid from Hasbro this year, possibly as early as February 21. This has not been confirmed by Hasbro, so we will treat it as rumor for now. If the February 21 release date is accurate, then we will likely see in-hand images before Toy Fair which starts on February 22. Either way I am sure this will be mentioned there assuming its actually coming.
