We're just under 100 days away from the release of Solo: A Star Wars Story in theaters this May, and with New York Toy Fair taking place this weekend Lucasfilm, and their respective licensees, have revealed some of the tie-in products that will be released in the coming months. The focus so far has been on the Hasbro and LEGO products, with Entertainment Weekly, io9, and The Hollywood Reporter all debuting Solo products.
First, io9 revealed four new 6" Black Series figures from the film. The characters being released in that line are Han Solo, Lando Calrissian, Qi'Ra, and the new Imperial Range Trooper. You can see the Han and Range Troopers figures below,
