Hasbro Black Series wave 11 cases will contain Hera, Lando, Emperor's Royal Guard, Tusken Raider, Qui-Gon Jinn, and Director Krennic. With representation from nearly every era of Star Wars, this is an excellent case. Rumor has it this will be the final wave to feature the red and black packaging of the last two years. More than likely, the packaging will be updated for the Star Wars 40th Anniversary.
Star Wars 40th
According to
Brickseek.com, Walmart's inventory system is already showing data for the Star Wars 40th Anniversary Hasbro line up. Inquisitive Rebelscum forum member Ham_Salad has revealed a number of SKUs that describe product as "SW BLK SERIES 6INCH 40TH ANN FIGURE ASST." The character line up suggests a tribute to the original 12 Kenner figures. Another SKU references Black Series die cast figures. What those will be remains to be seen, but Bill has some guesses.
