Star Wars: Rebels Action Figure Packaging Reveal

Lucasfilm is showing off their new Star Wars: Rebels animated series this weekend and Hasbro is right there supporting things with the reveal of the 3.75-inch action figure line packaging. I wasn’t all that excited about a new Star Wars animated series . . . until I saw that it’s “proper” Star Wars complete with Stormtroopers and TIE Fighters. Okay, now I’m officially excited to see exactly what Lucasfilm and Disney are planning for the new series. This could be very fun.

In anticipation of Lucasfilm’s STAR WARS REBELS panel at New York Comic Con (Saturday, October 12, 2013; 2:45 PM 3:45 PM; Location: Empire Stage 1-E), Hasbro unveils the packaging treatment for its STAR WARS REBELS 3.75-inch action figure line supporting the upcoming animated series.

STAR WARS REBELS continues the epic tradition of the legendary Star Wars saga with all-new exciting, action-packed adventures. It is a dark time in the galaxy, as the evil Galactic Empire tightens its grip of power from world to world. As the series begins, Imperial forces have occupied a remote planet, ruling with an iron fist and ruining the lives of its people. But there are a select few who are brave enough to stand up against the endless Stormtroopers and TIE fighters of the Empire: the clever and motley crew of the starship Ghost. Together, this ragtag group will face threatening new villains, have thrilling adventures, and become heroes.

Hasbro’s STAR WARS REBELS line, featuring highly detailed 3.75-inch action figures with multiple points of
articulation, is coming to a galaxy near you in 2014.
