New Star Wars packaging - Second semester 2013

The information went unnoticed by LEGO fans, and for good reason it does not concern us: The official packaging of products derived from the Star Wars saga will change during the year 2013.

Yoda will disappear in favor of a very vintage Darth Vader which will therefore come to dress the boxes of most manufacturers including Hasbro.
LEGO has already confirmed that its Star Wars product line will not be affected by this change of dressing.

But there is still a major problem to be resolved: This change of visual was motivated by the release at the end of the year of Episodes II (Attack of the Clones) and III (Revenge of the Sith) in 3D in movie theaters.

However, we now know that Lucasfilm has canceled the 3D release of these two films to better focus on the future Episode VII.

We can also assume that Disney prefers to focus on the development of the saga rather than capitalizing on the fans' relative nostalgia for Episodes II and III: The 3D conversion of Episode I The Phantom Menace, although it remains a financially profitable operation, has not met with the expected success.

In short, all this to tell you about a change that does not concern us and that may not happen.
