New Comic-Inspired Star Wars Figures Coming Soon from Hasbro 

Last year, Hasbro revealed their new Star Wars: The Black Series comic book-inspired line for the Lucasfilm 50th Anniversary. This line takes a step back from the films and games and focuses on iconic Star Wars comics. From Dark Horse stories to Marvel Comics and even IDW, these comic book characters get new figures inspired by their stories. Three new comic-inspired figures are on the way, and we are starting with Infinities Darth Vader from the Star Wars Infinities comic. Sporting an all-white deco, Vader returns as a hero in this alternate reality story, and the white deco just pops here. While he is a simple repaint, this figure will be incredible to own, and you gotta love those comic-inspired boxes they come in. 

Vader is not the only Skywalker getting some love with these reveals, as Princess Leia Organa is also getting a new figure. Coming to us from the latest Marvel Comics mini-series Princess Leia, Leia is looking for other people who fled Alderaan and with a new heroic outfit. However, my favorite releases from this set of reveals come to us from the new Marvel Comics Star Wars story with the arrival of Sergeant Kreel. Leading Task Force 99, Kreel wields a green lightsaber and can hold his own against Luke Skywalker. This badass Stormtrooper does not miss, and I am pumped he is getting his own figure. All three of these Hasbro The Black Series Comic-Inspired figures are priced at $27.99 each, are set for a Spring 2023 release, and pre-orders will arrive at Fan Channel sites like here tomorrow (4/7) at 1 PM EST.
