More Hasbro SWCO News: SDCC Exclusive Speeder and Tarkin!

Hasbro had even more goodness up their sleeves at Star Wars Celebration Orlando over the weekend. We'd only just heard of this fall's new Black Series Landspeeder, when they dropped word that there will be a special 2017 San Diego Comic-Con Exclusive version this summer, with opening hood and engine sections, more weathered and detailed deco, as well as Luke's poncho - check it out:








But that ain't all! Hasbro also unveiled several other new Black Series figures, my favorite being Grand Moff Tarkin, who'll come with an interrogation torture droid, to hover menacingly over Princess Leia. 


But possibly the best news for fans was word that due to popular demand and cranky, vocal collectors, Hasbro is bringing back the fan-favorite 3.75" Vintage Collection line of super-articulated figures in 2018! This hopefully means an end to frustrating Walmart exclusives, and wider availability of the kinds of figures that helped make Hasbro who they are. Welcome news indeed!
