2018 SDCC
« on: July 18, 2018, 07:59 PM »
The first images are in from SDCC, and Instagram appears to be the platform to check.

6" TBS Dengar

6" TBS Lando Calrissian (Skiff Guard disguise)

6" TBS Princess Leia Organa (Hoth)

6" TBS Val (SOLO)

6" TBS L3-37


These appear to just be some first shots, and there's nothing really new that's been photographed so far.  Although the details / accessories with Hoth Leia are nice to see.

That Lando looks awesome.  I've always loved the skiff guard costume.

I like the Leia figure, but it still kills me they've never made a Padme 6" figure.  If they were to pick one I would suggest an AOTC arena battle version.

*****edit*****

Never mind, I just read Jayson's info on Yakface about a rumored Padme, although it sounds like this has been rumored for awhile.  I still would much rather see this figure than another Leia, or an L3, or just about anything else they've got planned.

Nice! Count me in for two of these, and let's hope their ride gets made at some point.  :)

Very cool.  And I'd also like to see a version with the speeder bike at some point, too.

Just a reminder that the Hasbro Star Wars panel is today at 1pm Pacific. 

I think I read that SWAN was going to try a livestream on facebook again this year.  If anyone finds a good stream, be sure to share the link!

I have confirmation from SWAN that they will be attempting to stream the panel on Facebook live.  It's going to depend on the available cell bandwidth in the room. 

Here's their Facebook page:  https://www.facebook.com/SWActionNews/

Big Ups to SWAN. 

I live-posted to the front page if you want some quick synopsis and our Twitter feed has pics and stuff going on in it and lots of info (thanks to Jeff).  Coordinated this worked well. 

It's like you're there!  But without the smells.
