Hasbro took to YouTube yesterday for a series of Vintage Collection and Black Series for I Am Your Father’s Day. Click on through to check out the reveals and preorder information:
VINTAGE COLLECTION
Snowtrooper 4pk – $54.99 – Hasbro Pulse – Available June 16 at 1pm ET
We saw this set leaked a few months ago on eBay so it was about time this finally was released. All 4 figures are the same as their carded counterparts except for the inclusion of two additional rifles.
Darth Vader’s TIE Advanced with Darth Vader (VC334) – $139.99
Hasbro Pulse – Available June 16 at 1pm ET
Speculation has be rampant for a few month based on some teases we shared and a mystery vehicle included on our Master List. This version of Vader’s TIE is all new and features a swappable damaged wing section to recreate the Sith Lord’s tumble through space during the destruciton of the Death Star. The Darth Vader include is a repack but gets a brand new card back and number that look stellar. Packaging for the release features an homage to the original TIE box complete with “floating” Vader helmet and sweet, sweet background lighting straight from the 70’s.
Stormtroopers of the Empire 3pk and Cantina Adventure Set 4pk.
Hasbro Pulse – Monday June 16 at 1pm ET.
As a lead in to the stream, Hasbro announced, that by popular demand, they will be reopening preorders for the Stormtroopers of the Empire 3pk and the Cantina Adventure Set 4pk. DON’T MISS YOUR SHOT.
One final TVC announcement, Hasbro has heard the demands/requests of the collecting community and moving forward, all deluxe TVC releases like Momaw Nadon, Imperial Armored Commando, IG-11 etc. will now be on standard 6×9 cardback and no longer on the larger format 7×9 card. This will be a day long remembered.
BLACK SERIES
The Ronin (01 – Star Wars Visions) – $24.99
Amazon/Fan Channel – Available June 16 at 1pm ET
Basically a non-animated redeco of the Star Wars Celebration release, this variant of The Ronin from Star Wars Visions removes the wired soft goods and replaces it with pre-posed plastic. This release also introduces a new subline of figures that will be from animated source material.
Jedi Temple Guard (20 – The Clone Wars) – $24.99
Amazon/Fan Channel – Available June 16 at 1pm ET
Another rumored figure for some months finally confirmed. This all new figure measures up to the hype with a lot of great details, poseability and repeat purchases. Can a TVC version be not too far behind???
Barriss Offee (09 – Attack of the Clones) – $24.99
Amazon/Fan Channel – Available June 16 at 1pm ET
Rounding out the fan channel wave (available for preorder now) is another long-rumored figure, Barriss Offee. Hasbro has really been putting in the work to expand the Jedi ranks over the past couple of years and it seem each release gets better. Barriss is no exception. The soft goods tailoring is phenomenal here and will look outstanding next to Luminara on any collector’s shelf.
2025 Halloween Edition Figures – $24.99
Various Retailers – Available Fall 2025 (no preorders)
Love them or hate them, Hasbro scares us with another wave of Halloween Edition Black Series figures. There are 3 releases this year the Dathomir Witch (Amazon), The Ghost (Target), and The Mummy (Walmart) and each figure is also accompanied by a frightfully festive critter. Find them in stores this fall… if you dare!
Anakin Skywalker & Obi-Wan Kenobi – $109.99
SDCC Exclusive / Hasbro Pulse
The pièce de résistance of the Black Series announcements was undoubtedly the reveal of this year’s San Diego Comic-Con exclusive Anakin Skywalker vs Obi-Wan Kenobi. Both Anakin and Obi-Wan are all new in this set (they will also be released on their own in a future wave) and include a plethora of added accessories including swappable force push hands, heads, various lightsaber blades and a clashing effect. They are also packed with some fantastic Mustafar set pieces to recreate their iconic duel. Be sure to check out the stream for look at the packaging and accessories.
Fear not, this set will be available for purchase on Hasbro Pulse after SDCC but be prepared for the anger and hate generated by the Hasbro Pulse website when it undoubtedly has issues taking/processing your orders.
