‘Star Wars’ Hasbro Toy Fair 2020 Product Preview

Hasbro has just released the official images and descriptions for their upcoming Star Wars toys for this year’s New York Toy Fair. We expect that there will be a lot more revealed, and some of these toys have actually been available for pre-order for a while now. The big takeaway is, Hasbro is betting it all on the enduring cuteness of Baby Yoda.

We love us some Baby Yoda. Hell, we’ve already ordered the Black series figure, but one of these products is rubbing us the wrong way. We’re talking about the new edition of Star Wars Operation. the game is cute, but it takes away all the fun of Operation. You aren’t operating on Baby Yoda. You are operating around it. It’s like they wanted to make the game, but the marketing team intervened to make sure that the image of Baby Yoda was uninterrupted by the actual gameplay. If we were doing it, we’d at least have put the frog in its throat.
