The second Hasbro Star Wars Fan First livestream event took place on Facebook earlier today and ended after just 35 minutes. We share all the reveals, and details on how you can re-watch the event.
- Today’s event was billed as Vintage Collection centric and after we were introduced to Emily as the latest designer to join the Star Wars team, we got straight into the first vintage 3.75 inch reveals.
- Chirrut Îmwe joins The Vintage Collection lineup, this figure will see the return of ankle rockers and features photoreal face deco.
- Next was the Vintage Collection Bespin Chamber playset, which comes with a Vintage Collection Stormtrooper on The Empire Strikes Back card back. You can combine two of these to create the full environment.
- Princess Leia in Bespin attire will join the line in early 2021. This was the last Vintage Collection reveal, although Patrick promised something special for the line later during the event.
- Next up were the final and third wave of The Black Series 6 inch figures celebrating the 40th Anniversary of The Empire Strikes Back. The last five figures joining the line on vintage style card backs are: –
- Boba Fett
- Chewbacca (from the 2-pack with C-3PO).
- Imperial Snowtrooper which has been slightly tweaked for this release, with more realistic colouring.
- Darth Vader with accurate chest plate, deco and tunic underneath the chest plate.
- Dagobah Luke Skywalker (from the 2-pack with Yoda) with an all new card back.
- Rebel Hoth Trooper will be released in the regular Black Series mainline in the Fall.
- The final reveal was The Child BopIt! game featuring sounds from The Mandalorian.
- They announced the winner of the Archive Collection Black Series Fan Poll is Clone Commander Cody.
- Patrick and Emily then began to answer questions submitted earlier in the week.
- They were asked about HasLab and they answered with a reveal to start saving now for a Vintage Collection HasLab item to be revealed in August or September 2020.
- When asked about San Diego Comic Con and Celebration exclusives they said they will find a way to get these out to fans when they are announced.
- More figures from The Mandalorian and The Clone Wars will be coming in both lines.
- They listened to the recent polls about The Vintage Collection and they are taking note and making some changes, albeit not drastic ones and we will not see a return to the same amount of figures seen 10 years ago. This is great news for the line.
That was it…. what did you think? We will share information regarding the pre-orders tomorrow when all the reveals go on sale at 11am EST, 8am PST or 4pm BST. Likewise, we will be sure to share any information on the HasLab reveal as soon as it is announced.
You can re-watch the event on Facebook here.
All images taken via Instagram. We are expecting press quality images of all the reveals soon.
