Our friends at StarWarsFiguren.com reveal two unannounced gorgeous multipacks entitled Battle Of Geonosis: Jedi Knights. These sets truly look fantastic and solidify a fact we revealed in our Toy Fair Q&A with Hasbro when Derryl DePriest told JTA that something similar to the TARGET exclusive Geonosis Arena Showdown sets would be coming to collectors once again. What's most surprising however is that these aren't packaged in The Black Series line look. Coming with SIX (6) never-before-released Jedi Knights from the Battle of Geonosis, there is no way these multipacks were developed for younger collectors.

From our February 11, 2013 Toy Fair coverage:

Question: What happened to Cin Drallig figure you said you were trying to get in the line, that you mentioned in a Q&A dated the WEEK OF APRIL 27th, 2010? You said it was original scheduled for 2011, but then slipped to 2012. So it's 2013 and there is still no sign of him. I just want to know if you are still trying to release him. [If you saw this question addressed anywhere else, please know it originated here at JTA - there were a ton of eavesdroppers during our Q&A session. :) ]

ANSWER: Not right now, but he is planned for the future. Derryl then let it slip that something very similar to the TARGET exclusive Geonosis Arena Showdown sets, like a 2.0 of sorts, might be forthcoming and this would be the place to release Cin Drallig. This made us extremely happy because we think the Geonosis Arena Showdown sets are some of the best exclusives ever made by Hasbro. Fans of Episode II have reason to be happy! (Editor's Note: I could have sworn Derryl say that the Geonosian Arena Showdown sets might actually be coming back, but I totally went blank if on whether he actually said that or if I just wanted to hear him say that.)
