Hasbro Unveils New Kylo Ren, Obi-Wan Kenobi Figures

Via Ew.com:
This may be a first for Star Wars toys — a collectible for a character who is an obsessive collector.

Hasbro is unveiling two new high-end action figures, which will go on sale at the two biggest geek events happening on the planet this month.

First up, at Star Wars Celebration in London, which runs July 15-17, The Force Awakens villain Kylo Ren will be available as 6-inch Black Series collectible, complete with a scorched and melted version of Vader’s helmet.

The miniature likeness of Adam Driver also comes with Ren’s own helmet and crossguard lightsaber, a version of that handmade laser sword’s hilt, and a banner emblazoned with the First Order insignia.

During the fan event, it will be available at the Forbidden Planet toy booth for $34.99. (More details on the packaging will be released later @HasbroPulse on Instagram.)

Later in the month at San Diego’s Comic-Con International (July 21-24), a veteran character from the original Star Wars will get the Black Series treatment with this Obi-Wan Kenobi set, depicting the Alec Guinness character in the scene when the Jedi-in-hiding receives an emergency hologram from Princess Leia.
