Hasbro has just revealed that Jaina Solo has won the Star Wars Hasbro Fan Poll, during its panel at San Diego Comic-Con. Plus there were many other Star Wars characters joining the Black Series library…
The Star Wars Hasbro Black Series panel was held today at the 2016 San Diego Comic-Con, and while there were several 6″ figure reveals, the real news was that Jaina Solo won the Fan Poll contest, and will now join the pantheon of other great Star Wars characters, as a Hasbro Black Series.
Here’s the official Star Wars Twitter account making the announcements:

A Tusken Raider was revealed next, which was kind of weird choice, but cool nonetheless.

There were more reveals, which included some Die-cast helmets, featuring the melted Darth Vader helmet from The Force Awakens.
That’s it for this year’s Hasbro San Diego Comic-Con panel. There were tons of reveals, and it seems as if Star Wars fans were herd, as Jaina Solo was overwhelmingly the number-one vote getter.
