HasCon 2017: New Black Series 3.75″ Figures Announced

The Black Series 3.75" Supreme Leader Snoke

Earlier today we gave you your first look at Star Wars collectibles on display at HasCon 2017. Now we are back with a look at upcoming The Black Series 3.75″ figures. Six new figures were on display which were Finn (First Order disguise), Rose, Supreme Leader Snoke, Captain Poe Dameron, Captain Rex and Elite Praetorian Guard.

Each figure features multiple points of articulation and a few accessories. These figures are geared more towards the adult collector, but I still am more fond of the classic 5 POA figures.

Check out the images below.  No information was revealed for a release date just yet, but it should be soon, as the Elite Praetorian Guard figure has been seen in the wild.

Winner of Hasbro’s Star Wars Fan Choice Poll Announced!

Vintage Collection Logo

A few days ago we shared with you Hasbro’s Star Wars Fan Choice Poll announcement.  Now that all the votes have been collected, and the dust has settled, it is time to announce which figure will be getting the Vintage Carded treatment!

The winner of the Hasbro Star Wars Fan Choice Poll is none other than…

Doctor Aphra!

Star Wars Fan Choice Poll
Doctor Aphra

Doctor Aphra’s co-creator Kieron Gillen, had this to say about the news of the impending figure…

“I’m of a generation that some of my earliest memories are of Star Wars figures and the magic herein, the idea that someone Salvador [Larroca] and I made up is going to be one of those, immortal in plastic, feels all kind of magical.”

Look for the new figure to debut sometime in 2018. Now if we can only get that Aphra, BT-1, and 0-0-0 3-pack that I am dying to have…

About Hasbro’s Star Wars Vintage Collection Action Figures:

For The Vintage Collection Hasbro brought back the much loved packaging-style from the original line of Kenner Star Wars figures. The line consisted of Star Wars figures from all six movies and the expanded universe.

It seems Hasbro is going to be giving fans a Star Wars Black Series Rey with Speeder this Fall!  Check out the official information along with a couple of publicity photos below!

The Speeder features two opening panels to see the inner detailing of the craft itself, and nine points of articulation—including the base (sculpted to make it look like the Speeder displacing dust and air as it floats) that can let you pose and tilt the vehicle.

Unlike the previous Black Series Rey figure, this one—a “100% newly sculpted” version, according to Hasbro, with 28 points of articulation—features soft fabric clothing to make it easier for her to get on her trusty speeder, a new satchel slung over her back, and removable face mask. On top of that, she also carries her trusty staff, which can be stored on the side of the Speeder as well.

The Black Series Rey Speeder will release this Fall—presumably alongside the first wave of Star Wars: The Last Jedi toys—for $60. If you’re heading to Star Wars Celebration in Orlando later this week, you’ll be able to see it (and many more upcoming Star Wars toys) on display at Hasbro’s booth.

Star Wars Toy Sales Top Charts in 2016

Star Wars Toy Sales

If you ever wanted to know if Star Wars merchandise was in a decline, then here is your answer – it is not.  Thanks to a new report from from Fortune, we know that not only did Star Wars as a franchise top the toy sales charts for 2016, it rose $60 million from the year before!

Research firm NPD Group said Star Wars sales totaled nearly $760 million in the U.S. alone last year, beating 2015 by $60 million. That made Star Wars the top property in the toy world, based on dollar sales. The perennially popular property has seen resurgent interest thanks to two recent films, 2015’s “Star Wars: The Force Awakens” and last year’s “Rogue One: A Star Wars Story.” Both were released late in the year, during the toy industry’s peak holiday shopping season. And with more films to be released in subsequent years, Star Wars is poised to remain a hot toy property for many years to come.

According to the article, the only downfall was that action figures and accessories fell 1% compared to last year and building sets fell 3%.  I don’t know what to make of that, because that number is for toys overall and not just Star Wars toys.  Overall the toy industry grew by 5% in 2016, with the help of the Star Wars brand.

It doesn’t hurt that more expensive toys like Sphero’s BB-8 or the electronic R2-D2 have that higher price point, and kids just have to have it.  It seems that the Force is still strong with the franchise after 40 years!
