Will The Weight Be Lifted For The 40th Anniversary Of Star Wars?

Posted by Paul | January 20, 2017 at 09:23 PM ET

I believe collectors have been really weighed down with the last couple of years of Hasbro offerings. There wasn't a significant focus on the Original Trilogy (but instead on The Force Awakens) and 3.75" action figures (collector-focused) were last on Hasbro's agenda. It's like being forced to like heavy metal when you're into pop music. They always seem to be looking for other formats, don't they? Could this year be a turnaround of sorts? They've definitely been making some collector-friendly items, like the Titanium Series helmets. Who knows how far they'll take that in the future. Let's just hope that it somehow is a respectful nod to Star Wars' incredible landmark.
