Hasbro Announces 2nd San Diego Comic-Con Exclusive
Although Hasbro has yet to announce their G.I. Joe and Transformers (unless I missed it) exclusive for this year’s San Diego Comic-Con, they released a photo yesterday for an Angry Birds Star Wars set that will join the already advertised Black Series Boba Fett.
Sporting classic Kenner packaging, the 12-pack mimics the original 12 back releases from 1978. According to the press release, originally posted over at io9, the set will run about $25 and will be available at Hasbro’s booth.
