Hasbro Shares Details for Star Wars Retailer Exclusives

hasbro-star-wars-retailer-exclusives

We’re a week away from Force Friday, and Hasbro has more retailer exclusives incoming. As you might expect, most are tied-in with Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, but a certain astromech droid is looking to remote control his way to your heart.

“Every Day They Grow Stronger” – Hasbro Reveals Line-Ups for Rogue One: A Star Wars Story

Hasbro Rogue One A Star Wars Story Black Series

You didn’t need the Force to know Hasbro would be coming out with new toys for Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, right? Hasbro has shared the initial line-ups for vehicles and playsets for the 3.75-inch scale, a wave of figures for Star Wars: Black Series in the 6-inch scale, and basic and deluxe figures in the 12-inch scale.

No Bothans were harmed to bring us this press release.

We haven’t done an official AFP Free Stuff Giveaway in a while, but this one was worth the wait (if we do say so ourselves!)

After all, it furthers our nefarious goal of ruling the toy website universe.

You have until Friday, when the Force Awakens opens, to enter this giveaway. There’s a bunch of stuff included – check out the pics above and read on for how to enter and what is included. Remember – through power, I gain victory!
