I couldn't imagine another time we were covering one collected twice. Here in Io9, we cover all kinds of merch—Toys, artClothing, etc. – but once we cover it, it's done. However, when it comes to the exclusive figure Hasbro brings Star Wars Japan's celebration in April, Our initial range is not enough To show how amazing this figure is, and so here we are.
To recap, Hasbro will have An exclusive set of Black Series of Ronin and R5-D56 from Star Wars: Visions at the sale at the convention. These are super cool numbers, all black and white like short movies that come from their. But, what makes it more special that this release is that the numbers will come to the “premium Japanese-only single-language packaging.” And wow, it really takes things. Here are some images.
So, as you can see, the numbers are packed with some really good art held closed with some kind of string. And then, the package opens to reveal the characters are in a giant, widescreen film. And that's not all the accessories, where there is 11: including “a light of light, staff, two rocket thrusters, and six droid tools.”
The issue we have is, obviously, you have to buy two of these things, one to open and one to show. However, the implication here is that the packaging is exclusively exclusive. This means that the figures themselves can be used on a different date. So, potential, you can buy them and show them.
This particular version of the figure is exclusively available at the Hasbro booth at Star Wars Celebration of Japan, beginning April 18. You will find us there in line.
