@Goodiestoyz shares an image o a new 6"
"Empire Build Out Set" including figures of
Darth Vader,
Imperial Death Trooper,
Luke Skywalker,
The Mandalorian and The Child, and
Rey. Note, this set features "Plastic-Free Packaging".
Interesting. I wonder how secure the lightsabers are in there. I can see those going missing if too loose.
UpdateIt turns out, we have seenthis 'plastic free' packaging setbefore, I believe these are repacked 5.5" 'value' figures(?), found at stores like CVS and Walmart.
Update #2I found listings for this set onKmart.com/AuandKmart.com/NZ, which lists the figures as 6" with a price of $35-40
Sounds like something you might find at a physical Disney store or Disney park.

Overseas retailer Hobbybase has posted an image of an item I don't recall being previously announced or seen by Hasbro. They list it as a 6" set containing 6 figures. It's a weird assortment of figures with the first three being The Mandalorian based featuring Mano, Grogu and a Death Trooper while the remaining three figures included are ROTJ Luke, Darth Vader and Rey. It's not clear if these are repacks of Black Series figures or something else more basic. No where on the packaging does it say Black Series and the generic white box packaging is often used for more basic figures with minimal articulation. However I don't recall Hasbro doing limited articulation 6" figures before of these guys. It's possible this is something that will only be released overseas. If, when or where this set will be offered here in the US remains to be seen.
I'm fine with this idea, but I'm worried about the jerks that repack figures.
