Our friends at Jedi Temple Archives have released the 2014 edition of their Vintage vs. Modern report. Head over to check out which vintage Kenner figures still haven’t been made in the modern line and which ones still aren’t good enough.
In the comments section of this Facebook post, Dan, drops a lot if insight into the Black Series including the fact that it may be used to clear out Hasbro’s “parking lot” as well as some heretofore unheard figure rumors. Clearing out the parking lot may be a bitter sweet thing as Dan indicates.
Update: We have received word that this report is not accurate from a credible source. I’m leaving the article open for now as more of a talking point.
The blokes across the pond have a list of rumored upcoming Black Series, Mission Series, Saga Legends and Class II product which adds further confirmation to Jedi Temple Archive’s assortment rumor from a few days ago. It also includes a few previously unreported Black Series figures. I would say I’m excited about the new announcements, but rehashes of core characters is exactly what is tiring me of this line.
Our friends at Jedi Temple Archives have revealed the exciting case assortments for waves 4 and 5 of the Black Series. It’s not just what’s there that is exciting. It’s what’s not.
