So if haven't had chance to sit down and watch the live stream yourself, we're here to help with a recap of what was revealed.
First off, the live stream went all the way "down under" to Sydney Australia where Jay Laga'aia(Captain Typo) hosted the reveal of the new Star Wars Blade builders Lightsaber set from Hasbro. The Bratayley family was on hand to swiftly unbox the toys and fully reveal them to the world:

Secondly, the hosts in L.A had a reveal of their own and next unboxed Poe's X-Wing from Hasbro:

The vehicle also includes a 3.75-inch limited edition Poe Dameron figure with detectable helmet and blaster. Although the duo have some trouble attaching it's various pieces, they do give us a good up close look at the X-Wing and figure.
In addition, they revealed two upcoming books, showing off the inside and out of Star Wars: Smuggler's Run, written by Greg Rucka, and later interviewed author Cecil Castellucci about her own book Star Wars: Moving Target, which they also revealed.
