And speaking of Star Wars Day, Hasbro has just revealed their SDCC exclusive for the upcoming Star Wars Black Series. It’s fan favorite Boba Fett, with a carbonite-encased Han Solo. Impressive. Most impressive.
Boba Fett figure to debut at Comic-Con, with Solo in tow
Detailed ‘Star Wars’ toy from Hasbro comes packaged with the ultimate accessory: Han Solo in carbonite.
One of the collectible toys that Hasbro will have available exclusively at the pop-culture event this year is a detailed 6-inch Boba Fett action figure from the new Star Wars Black Series. What’s even better is that he comes packaged with two weapons, his iconic jet pack and the ultimate accessory: Han Solo frozen in carbonite.
Kids of all ages can relive the moments in the Cloud City of Bespin during The Empire Strikes Back where Boba Fett hauls off his prey, or the scenes in Return of the Jedi where the iconic bounty hunter has taken Solo to Jabba the Hutt’s palace on Tattooine.
The special-edition set is priced at $44.99 and will be sold at the Hasbro booth at the San Diego Convention Center July 18-21.
