Aaaaaand so it begins. Rogue One: A Star Wars story is nearing its release date and the first action figure from the movie has been announced. Hasbro Star Wars The Black Series 6″ line will get a Sergeant Jyn Erso (Jedha Costume).
The heroine of the first Star Wars spin-off movie, the Jyn Erso figure was very much expected. From the images, it is apparent that the figure does not have a lot of accessories. Just a pistol and a keffiyeh that can be removed so you can have the “base” look from the trailer.
The figure, while barely resembling Felicity Jones, at least has some of her features. Especially when you take into account Hasbro’s inconsistency regarding human faces. As a Star Wars action figure collector, I would really like to have the very first offering from Rogue One. My initial impression is that the figure is solid. Not great, but solid.
Wasn’t able to catch a release date, but I expect it to be available at Force Friday this September.
