It's a rumor - but more so!

I was reading on some forums that Hasbro's Star Wars: The Retro Collection action figures for Obi-Wan Kenobi were showing up at Dollar Tree.   Exciting!  Ross had some of these guys last year for around $3.99.   When I heard Dollar Tree might have some, I started checking (more frequently, I'm there all the dang time looking for stuff) and so far haven't found any.  But, as you know, Dollar Tree has things for $1.25 and up.

I was wondering which one this would be, and I had a way to find out. 

Mike Birbiglia of "Sleepwalk with Me" fame and all around funny guy guest-hosted Jimmy Kimmel Live! and got to interview Ewan MacGregor and reveal a new Obi-Wan Kenobi (Wandering Jedi) action figure.  That's how mainstream this is now - hey, I'm not complaining.

Here's what Hasbro had to say about it, with some more pictures after the break:
 

STAR WARS: THE BLACK SERIES OBI-WAN KENOBI (WANDERING JEDI) FIGURE

(HASBRO/Ages 4 years & up/Approx. Retail Price: $24.99 /Available: Spring 2023)

STAR WARS fans and collectors can imagine scenes from the STAR WARS galaxy with this premium THE BLACK SERIES 6-INCH OBI-WAN KENOBI (WANDERING JEDI) figure, inspired by the character in the STAR WARS: OBI-WAN KENOBI series. Obi-Wan Kenobi is set years after the dramatic events of Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith where Kenobi faced the corruption of his friend and Jedi apprentice, Anakin Skywalker turned Sith Lord Darth Vader. It also features the great articulation we have come to expect from Black Series, including the butterfly joints which allow more dynamic posing and articulation.

And if that weren't enough, there's a new Star Trek Strange New Worlds trailer too today.
