Star Wars Black Series 2-Packs of the Jedi Temple Guards, and the Battlefront Scarif Shoretrooper and Magma Stormtrooper

A retailer in Singapore, The Falcons Hanger, has shared some images on Instagram of a large number of new Hasbro offerings from across their lines, including Marvel, Transformers, and Star Wars. Many of them are items we've seen go up for pre-order this week and are part of the US Target Summer Geek Out event.


Among them are images of two unannounced Star Wars Black Series sets. The first, in packaging for Galaxy's Edge or Shop Disney, is a two-pack of Jedi Temple Guards as seen predominantly in The Clone Wars. We cannot see the figures, but the illustration indicates one of these is a variant of the existing release and could well be the Grand Inquisitor before he turned to the Dark Side and operated as a Jedi Temple Guard.


Images have been sharpened, straightened, and had their backgrounds removed

The other set is a Gaming Greats two-pack from Battlefront containing a Scarif Shoretrooper alongside a Magma Stormtrooper. In the past, these have been retailer exclusives, either Amazon or the Fan Channel.


With the Falcon's Hangar having these in hand, these should be announced and start to show up in other areas in the next few months.

About Me : As a child of the '70s and '80s I grew up in a golden age for action figures and in my youth bought and sold myself through collections of Star Wars, G.I. Joe (Action Force), and M.A.S.K. while also dabbling in He-Man, Transformers and Ghostbusters. Roll forward and I am now reliving that Youth with the action figures of today and am a collector and fan of the larger 6-8 inch figures from my favourite movie and TV licenses - including the ones mentioned above, but also the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Doctor Who, and the Aliens. I launched The Mephitsu Archives in 2015 with a view of creating a UK-focused site or these figures where fans can pick up the latest action figure news, read reviews and get information on where to buy their figures and what is currently on store shelves. I hope I am delivering that to you guys...
