Black Series Hasbro Pulse Livestream Reveals
The Black Series made a lot of reveals, mostly repacks. Good news for fans of the Credit Collection: it's back with Din Djarin, Greef Karga, Kuili and Moff Gideon done in the artwork shown at the end of Mandalorian episodes based on concept artwork. From a nostalgic perspective, at least in my opinion, they are colored the way they would have been if they appeared in the 1980's Marvel Comics books, especially Gideon. The figures will be on Kenner style cards. The Armorer is also in the mix, and they will be at multiple retail and fan channel outlets. (Amazon, Best Buy, Target)
The Gaming Greats line is back, this time with a 501st Jet Trooper. It will be exclusive to Gamestop, as all other Black Series Gaming Greats figures are.
Target gets another Din Djarin and Grogu 2 pack, this time Din is covered in mud, and Grogu is using the Force. He also comes with a new Pram. From the 2nd episode of the series. Hopefully this one will be able to be found in stores this time.
Finally, the Archive line has 4 great choices to return. A ROTJ Palpy (admittedly I might get this), C-3P0 from ANH, Dengar from ESB (another I might get) and Lando in Skiff Guard disguise from ROTJ.
Hasbro Pulse gets an exclusive POTF2 card for Yavin Ceremony Leia, which wasn't revealed on the live stream. But she'll be released soon on a normal Black Series box in the near future. This is the only new figure announced that isn't a repack.
The best reveal was Rey Skywalker's lightsaber for the FX Elite line. Not only is it the 1st yellow bladed lightsaber, it looks exactly like the staff section Rey used to make it. The cloth wrappings are real, as is her slide trigger activation which shows the blade light up, even with blue and green lights underneath the blade to create the look. Expect Hasbro to have more reveals for their big fan event next month.
