With the first people being let in the doors of Star Wars Celebration Chicago now, and ORN not being able to attend, the kind folks over at Hasbro have sent over review samples of their Celebration Chicago 2019 Exclusive Star Wars: The Black Series 6″ Darth Maul and Obi-Wan Kenobi figures!
The new figures feature package reminiscent of the original Hasbro Star Wars: The Phantom Menace packaging, with a slight twist. The packaging on these figures feature some sort of holographic application, that really makes the cards pop!
Since this is the 20th anniversary (man, I can’t believe it has already been that long) of Star Wars: The Phantom Menace, Hasbro decided to give fans something truly unique and special with these two releases. If you are attending Star Wars Celebration Chicago, and you were lucky enough to snag a lottery ticket to purchase one, you can find these at the Hasbro booth.
Check out our initial figures of the carded figures below!
