Star Wars Black Series Boba Fett to be an SDCC Exclusive?
Thursday, February 7th, 2013 by Pixel Dan
If you’re like me, then one of the characters you no doubt are excited to see get the 6″ treatment in the new Star Wars Black Series is the infamous bounty hunter known as Boba Fett.
Well good news! It seems Boba Fett may be on the way! But here’s the potential scary news: Rebelscum.com is reporting that 6″ Boba Fett may be a 2013 San Diego Comic Con exclusive.
Now hold on…before you get too upset, the folks at Rebelscum do make a very good point. The past few years, many of Hasbro’s SDCC exclusives have been offered later at retail. This has been the case for some of their Transformers and Marvel Legends exclusives in recent years, and even last year’s Star Wars exclusive. So I think it’s safe to say that a regular 6″ Boba Fett will be released at retail after SDCC. The SDCC version will most likely be a repaint, have special packaging, include an extra accessory, or any combination of those things.
All of this is nothing more than rumor and speculation right now. We should know more details this weekend at Toy Fair.
So what say you? Worried about this rumor? Feel it’s nothing to fear? Let’s hear it!
This is Hasbro and SW we are talking about. They have no issue putting out 10 different figures of the same character lol. So even if it is Boba at SDCC, he will show up at retail. I mean there are rumors of a Boba movie now, Disney/Hasbro know the value in that character.
The same people freaking out right now about this "news" will be the same crying when there are too many Bobas in waves of the 6" figures lol
I have faith it will be just fine.
Dan, fear leads to the Dark Side! Fear leads to anger, anger leads to hate, hate leads to suffering! So, there is nothing to fear! 🙂
What I mean is – we should not fear!
