Please see the link,

SW Black Series Force FX Lightsaber Skywalker ROTJ Wave 3 |

It says that Hasbro has announced a release for September Black series Wave 3 and the Luke Rotj is one of them, was curious if anyone had a source for that announcement by Hasbro?

Hmm... interesting.  If there's another source for Wave 3 then this is Legit.  As it stands now, it might be BS.. or not...

Seems somewhat suspicious to me because they are using the signature series stock photo.

I did some digging and found this:
http://www.entertainmentearth.com/prodinfo.asp?number=HSB3921C#.VtTsxPkrKUl

Case includes 3 individually packaged lightsabers, including (subject to change):
1x SW E4 LUKE SKYWALKER FORCE FX LIGHTSABER
1x SW E5 DARTH VADER FORCE FX LIGHTSABER
1x SW E6 FX LUKE SKYWALKER LIGHTSABER
(subject to change)

Entertainment Earth is a highly legit store and now that they listed this... perhaps it is real. (E4 Luke is actually we are getting now... could they misinterpret and release a ESB / TFA Version?)

Excellent thanks for the help!

I have done a fair bit of digging around Hasbro outlets and other online stores to look for announcements haven't found much really.

Premium collectables has the same bundle available for pre order as entertainment earth except its E4 Luke E4 Vader and E6 Luke.

It also says subject to change so i am kind of hoping they release E5 luke Vader as well as E6 Luke or some new ones.

They have also been listed on Ebay by premium and entertainment for purchase also.

Any more info is greatly appreciated

My apologies a side note to that:

I do recall a few sites advertising Luke E5 and Vader E5 prior to the release of the first Wave of the Black series lightsabers.

Also please see the link below:

SW Black Series Force FX Lightsaber Luke Skywalker/Rey |

it is advertised as a luke/rey lightsaber which could mean its a ESB/TFA version. Wishful thinking gents.

I really hope some design changes have been made to the ROTJ model, I love that hilt but hasbro has never gotten close to the thin neck look :/

Yes, I have found some of these at Walt Disney World in their Star Wars Launch Bay, they were only out for a day, I'm assuming it was the first small batch :)

I was stunned to find one at Disneyland's Star Wars Launch Bay last week and snagged it. $169 plus tax, came out to around $180.

For those that have gotten these at Diseny, how do they look? Pics of the box and hilt would be appreciated.

Just saw in the Philippines the force FX Luke Skywalker black series one from ROTJ, number 5 in the Black Series lightsaber list. But for over $200. Think I'm going to go for it.

I have pictures of one I picked up from the WDW Star Wars Launch Bay in June.  I have pictures I would gladly post, but I'm new to this site, and haven't been able to figure out how to attach a photo to a reply on this forum (at least with my iPad).
