Hasbro Loses Their Minds By Dropping $75 Carbonized Star Wars 2-Pack

The Star Wars Hasbro team does it again and releases another completely unnecessary The Black Series set at a might $75

A brand new Star Wars: The Black Series 2-Pack has been revealed for the Disney+ Obi-Wan Kenobi series. NED-B and Phase II Purge Trooper are packed together for this special set, and Hasbro has brought back the Carbonized gimmick once again. Amazon will be getting the beauty exclusively, and they have attached an unnecessary $75 price tag. That is right, Hasbro is now asking $75 for this unnecessary rerelease that features the outdated Carbonized gimmick. Years ago, that was almost the price of four The Black Series figures, which is completely bonkers. 

Hasbro's Star Wars line has been pretty downhill lately with some overpriced Haslab projects, constant rerelease figures (looking at you Skiff Lando), and much more. This year marks the 40th Anniversary of Return of the Jedi, and we have seen nothing impressive. We still have not seen new figures from The Book of Boba Fett, and where the hell is all The Bad Batch releases?! As a lifelong Star Wars fan, it is sad to see such an incredible world get swept under the rug over and over. If this new release shows anything is that Hasbro is focusing on the wrong part of the release, as it was the packaging that really made those early Carbonized figures shine. For Star Wars fans who want to take out a debt to Jabba the Hutt then this 2-Pack can be found here. Do Better Hasbro.
