Rumor reports from Yakface and Jedi Insider are getting fans excited about Hasbro’s Fan First Friday that will be announcing their Star Wars Lucasfilm 50th anniversary lineup. From Star Wars The Phantom Menace to Comic Book themed The Black Series figures, if these rumors are true we have a lot to look forward to.
