I really hope they start showing Empire 40th Black Series figures soon. I mean, I suppose they could just show some at the press event in New York because I think that's the night before Force Friday, but it seems weird to hold those back until then since they can't spoil an upcoming movie or tv show. I guess we'll see.
Hasbro is scheduled to be at two conventions this week, Fan Expo Canada (August 22 - 25) and the D23 Expo (Aug 23 - 26). For D23 they mainly are just selling some exclusives there. They will have a panel at the Fan Expo tomorrow at 12:30 PM ET but admittedly, following the lack of any new toy reveals during the recent Unboxing Convention, I don't know what to expect, if anything, this weekend; but, there will be a preview of the Disney+ streaming series; The Mandalorian and a new trailer for it is supposed to make it's debut during D23 as well. Be sure to check back for this, and any other news, this weekend.

You are correct.
I'm gonna be at Unboxing Toy Convention this weekend, I'll try to be at the Hasbro panels for SW and Marvel, depends on how quickly the exclusives line moves.

Yeah, I assumed NYCC was on the schedule, didn't notice it was missing until after the fact, but, left it in any ways. I'm planning to look up dates for the others and edit the post later.
I don't see New York Comic Con on there this year. Seems weird.
