There weren't any major reveals or announcements at the Hasbro Star Wars Panel at Comic-Con on Friday and a lot of the time was focused on the new Star Wars Angry Birds II app and toys coming out soon (panel report coming soon). For those eagerly following the action figure news, this panel only solidified plans already leaked.
