Coverage Sponsored by our friends at ANOVOS
and TOPPS Star Wars Card Trader

Following the tight lips and NDAs that made up the 2015 International Toy Fair and the sparse announcements made at Star Wars Celebration Anaheim, Collectors were certain that all would be revealed at the 2015 San Diego Comic-Con. We scoured the entire event to gather all the Star Wars collectible news we could and we photographed everything in front of us. With the countdown to The Force Awakens entering its final six months, the excitement on the floor was palpable. Despite their inability to discuss the products being released on September 4th, the licensees that are participating in the Force Friday event very obviously excited with what they have planned and that is very reassuring.

COLLECTING PANELS

The annual Hasbro Panel is always a good show, and this year was no different. Fans of The Black Series had plenty to be happy about - besides details and photos of upcoming figures, they also showed off a Massive 25-inch tall First Order TIE Fighter!. Get the complete panel details right here.

The Star Wars Collectors Panel


EFX Collectibles, Kotobukiya, Gentle Giant Ltd, Tamashii Nations, and Sideshow Collectibles each gave a quick presentation of what fans can expect in the coming months.
