As Toy Fair New York and Star Wars Celebration Orlando approach, Star Wars fans are getting exceptionally eager to learn what plans have been made to celebrate the 40th Anniversary of the Star Wars Saga. While May is likely the big month (A New Hope was released on 5-25-77), we’ve got some time before that, and the folks at Hasbro have no shortage of new toys yet to come. Yesterday some rumors were confirmed as my favorite line – the 3.75″ action figure assortment – will get new characters from Gareth Edwards’ Rogue One: A Star Wars Story and Disney XD’s Star Wars Rebels. Check out a full gallery below, along with details on some new offerings beyond the realm of figures!
