NYCC 2013: Hasbro Star Wars Black Series Reveals

Hasbro NYCC Star Wars Black Series Reveals

By the time we arrived at the Hasbro “Night Before” party, any traces of 6-inch Star Wars Black Series figures vaporized. Luckily, Hasbro shared official images of the Episode 3 Anakin Skywalker figure (so angry!) as well as ones for the 3.75-inchers that were there.

Not being a big fan of the Prequels, I was more excited about the Han Solo figure from the Star Wars Black Series wave 2 that was in our goodie bag. Thanks again, Hasbro!

NYCC 2013: Hasbro Marvel Legends Spider-Man Reveals

Hasbro NYCC Marvel Legends Spider-Man Reveals

At the “Night Before” party, Hasbro also pulled out the stops for the merchandise for The Amazing Spider-Man 2, which opens in May. If conventional wisdom holds, that means a street date for the toys in the February time-frame.

Like the Captain America figures, Marvel Spider-Man Legends Infinite Series (still a tongue-twister) will feature a build-a-figure – the Ultimate Green Goblin – also split over two waves. Following the pattern, Hasbro also plans swap-outs for figures – Carnage, Black Cat, and Beetle are the swaps in the first wave, for the 2 Spideys and Electro. Hopefully this works better for the movie-themed waves than they did for the latter ML waves from this year.

NYCC 2013: Hasbro Marvel Legends Captain America Reveals

Hasbro NYCC Marvel Legends Captain America Reveals

We published some Instapics from the Hasbro shindig on the eve of NYCC, and they were kind enough to follow up with official press pictures. To kick us off, here’s the info on the upcoming products from Captain America: The Winter Soldier, which should hit shelves in January, a quarter before the April opening of the movie.

I’m most excited to see the Marvel Legends products, which are rebranded to the movies this year. So: Marvel Captain America Infinite Series 6-Inch Legends. That may not roll of the tongue like Marvel Legends does, but if it gets more product to shelves and in our hands, then I’m all for it.

The back of the packaging (see the Instapics) shows the Mandroid BAF plus army builders / villains to encourage multiple purchases. The first wave includes a Marvel Now! Captain America, Agents of HYDRA (Red Skull / Hydra Agent swap) and Soldiers of AIM (Baron Zemo / AIM Soldier swap). Can’t wait!

Hasbro Star Wars Black Series Han Solo First Look

Hasbro Star Wars Black Series Han Solo 8

Had a rough night (NYC taxi cab drove off with our luggage) but Hasbro eased some of our hurt by giving us an early look at the Star Wars Black Series 6-inch Han Solo as part of their goodie bag for the Hasbro “Night Before” party. Between calls to the NYC TLC (the organization that licenses the taxis), the cab company, and the NYPD, I snapped a couple of quick shots.

Han is part of wave 2, which is due in late November. You can pre-order the Star Wars Black Series Han Solo and the other figures from wave 2 from Amazon.com.
