Star Wars Black Series Promo Images and Details from NYCC 2019 reveals

Following their New York Comic Con Star Wars Panel, Hasbro has released the full details of their reveals into the public domain. In the following post we will break down each item and where UK customers can expect to find it.


All of these have been added to our Black Series 2019 landing page.


It is worth also noting that during the panel the Hasbro team talked about global availability and the issues outside of US. To help this and create wider stocks future product will be using globalised packaging - with multi languages to be compliant worldwide, and the EU required white info sheet included - even within the US market stocks.

 


The First Order Jet Trooper will be part of wave 23 alongside other announced figures like Cara Dune and Jannah. He is number 99 in the line and will arrive in December 2019. Availability should be fine for the UK and via any store that stocks Black Series.


STAR WARS: THE BLACK SERIES 6-INCH FIRST ORDER JET TROOPER Figure

(HASBRO/Ages 4 years & up/Approx. Retail Price: $19.99/Available: Fall 2019)

Fans and collectors can imagine scenes from the STAR WARS Galaxy with this premium STAR WARS: THE BLACK SERIES 6-INCH FIRST ORDER JET TROOPER figure, inspired by STAR WARS: THE RISE OF SKYWALKER. This figure, which features premium deco and 4 fully articulated limbs, comes with a FIRST ORDER JET TROOPER-inspired accessory, making it a great addition to any Star Wars collection. Includes figure and accessory. Available at most major retailers.


 


Also part of wave 23 is Wedge Antilles. He uses some parts from the previous Luke X-Wing figure, but includes a new helmet decor and a Denis Lawson photo real head sculpt. Again availability will be widespread for Wedge. We assume Wedge will be number 102.


STAR WARS: THE BLACK SERIES 6-INCH WEDGE ANTILLES Figure

(HASBRO/Ages 4 years & up/Approx. Retail Price: $19.99/Available: Fall 2019)

Fans and collectors can imagine scenes from the STAR WARS Galaxy with this premium STAR WARS: THE BLACK SERIES 6-INCH WEDGE ANTILLES figure, inspired by STAR WARS: A NEW HOPE. This figure, which features premium deco and 4 fully articulated limbs, comes with 2 WEDGE ANTILLES-inspired accessories, making it a great addition to any Star Wars collection. Includes figure and 2 accessories. Available at most major retailers


 


Yavin Ceremony Luke is the same base figure as the Skywalker Strikes European Convention Exclusive. The accessories are however stripped back, and this figure is the one with the Yavin Ceremony medal. He too will be part of wave 23 and arrive in December. He will take the honour of being number 100 in the phase 3 packaging.


STAR WARS: THE BLACK SERIES 6-INCH LUKE SKYWALKER (YAVIN CEREMONY) Figure

(HASBRO/Ages 4 years & up/Approx. Retail Price: $19.99/Available: Fall 2019)

Fans and collectors can imagine scenes from the STAR WARS Galaxy with this premium STAR WARS: THE BLACK SERIES 6-INCH LUKE SKYWALKER (YAVIN CEREMONY) figure, inspired by STAR WARS: A NEW HOPE. This figure, which features premium deco and 4 fully articulated limbs, comes with a LUKE SKYWALKER (YAVIN CEREMONY)-inspired accessory, making it a great addition to any Star Wars collection. Includes figure and accessory. Available at most major retailers.


 


We shared the Chewie and C-3PO Empire Strikes Back pack a week or so ago when it was shared by Amazon Germany. This is now confirmed as an Amazon exclusive, and is likely to be listed on the various Amazon global sites (as per the leak in Germany) in the same way they dealt with the recent Palpatine & Throne and the current Carbonized Sith Trooper. It should arrive later in Autumn. Amazon US listing is already live, we await it going up on the UK site.


STAR WARS: THE BLACK SERIES 6-INCH CHEWBACCA & C3PO 2-PACK

(HASBRO/Ages 4 years & up/Approx. Retail Price: $39.99/Available: Fall 2019)

Available exclusively at Amazon.


 


Clone Commander Fox has shown up at Gamestop in the US, but Hasbro have confirmed this is a shared exclusive. It will be available via most of the UK specialist stores at some point between now and December 2019.


STAR WARS: THE BLACK SERIES 6-INCH CLONE COMMANDER FOX Figure

(HASBRO/Ages 4 years & up/Approx. Retail Price: $19.99/Available: Fall 2019)

Fans and collectors can imagine scenes from the STAR WARS Galaxy with this premium STAR WARS: THE BLACK SERIES 6-INCH CLONE COMMANDER FOX figure, inspired by the STAR WARS: THE CLONE WARS animated series. This figure, which features premium deco and 4 fully articulated limbs, comes with 3 CLONE COMMANDER FOX-inspired accessories, making it a great addition to any Star Wars collection. Includes figure and 3 accessories. Available as a Fan Channel exclusive.


 


The Force Spirit Yoda figure uses the existing Yoda sculpt, but now presented in a Force Spirit decor. This meant Hasbro have added some more inner robes to achieve that effect. The figure is exclusive to Walmart - but is unlikely to see a UK translation into Walmart owned Asda stores. We would think (hope) this will be made available via the Fan Channel and Hasbro UK to the independent stockists - we will have to watch this one, previous Walmart exclusives in both Star Wars and Marvel Legends line have been very limited. I would jump on this one as it goes up if you want a Yoda Force Ghost in your collection.


STAR WARS: THE BLACK SERIES 6-INCH YODA (FORCE SPIRIT) Figure

(HASBRO/Ages 4 years & up/Approx. Retail Price: $19.99/Available: Fall 2019)

Imagine galactic adventures with this collectible STAR WARS: THE BLACK SERIES 6-INCH YODA (FORCE SPIRIT) figure, featuring the legendary Jedi Master as a Force Spirit, inspired by STAR WARS: THE LAST JEDI. This figure features realistic STAR WARS-inspired detail and high poseability, making it a great gift for STAR WARS fans and collectors. Includes figure, accessory, and base. Available exclusively at Walmart.


 


And another Walmart Exclusive is the Jedi Knight Luke Skywalker. This figure is already up for pre-order with several independent UK stores - and as I said above, I'd go with this now rather than later based on previous experiences with Walmart Exclusive availability in the UK.


Luke does have a spelling error on the box, this is being corrected but some may hit retailers - a future "chase" variant for collectors?


STAR WARS: THE BLACK SERIES 6-INCH LUKE SKYWALKER (JEDI KNIGHT) Figure

(HASBRO/Ages 4 years & up/Approx. Retail Price: $19.99/Available: Fall 2019)

Available exclusively at Walmart.


 


And the final one is IG-11. This is from The Mandalorian and will be an exclusive to Bestbuy in the US. It uses the IG-88 sculpt, but with new bandoleer. Bestbuy have not really had an exclusive before so I am not sure how this one will behave. I suggest it will be readily available via the Fan Channel / Hasbro UK. It is too big a character to make limited.


STAR WARS: THE BLACK SERIES 6-INCH IG-11 Figure

(HASBRO/Ages 4 years & up/Approx. Retail Price: $19.99/Available: Fall 2019)

Available exclusively at Best Buy.
