'Star Wars': Genndy Tartakovsky’s 'Clone Wars 2D Micro–Series' Gets the Black Series Treatment
Star Wars: Black Series figures are among one of the most lauded series of collectibles on the market, and now, the collection is finally giving Genndy Tartakovsky’s Clone Wars 2D micro-series its place in action figure history. Hasbro announced several additions to its Black Series and Star Wars: The Vintage Collection line, celebrating the early 2000s animated series that would inspire the critically acclaimed 2008 series Star Wars: The Clone Wars and introduce fans to classic villains like General Grievous and Asajj Ventress.
Produced, released, and set between Attack of the Clones and Revenge of the Sith, the Clone Wars micro-series was the first of many works that dealt with the Clone Wars, in which the Jedi Council fought mercilessly against the Separatists, secretly controlled by Chancellor Sheev Palpatine — better known as Darth Sidious. Hasbro’s Black Series is celebrating this groundbreaking series with nine new figures: two new ARC Troopers, Mace Windu, General Grievous, Aayla Secura, Luminara Unduli, Barriss Offee, ARC Trooper Captain, and Battle Droid.
