Price $74.99 Available Fall 2024 Accessories 3 lightsabers, 4 lightsaber blades, 3 cloaks
The first of the bunch of new figures is a 3-pack including Qui-Gon Jinn, Obi-Wan Kenobi, and Darth Maul as seen during the Duel of the Fates in The Phantom Menace. As fully articulated figures, it will be possible to recreate every moment of the fateful duel at the end of the film. Standing at 6 inches tall, all three of the figures together will be an impressive display. The announcement of the Phantom Menace 3-pack also comes at the perfect time - just before the re-release of the movie ahead of its 25th anniversary.
Star Wars: The Black Series Darth Sidious

Price $24.99 Available Fall 2024 Accessories Lightsaber, 2 Force lightning hands
Another 6-inch figure in the premium Black Series line is Darth Sidious fully revealed as a Sith Lord. This figure continues the trend of including prequel trilogy characters, as Sidious's design is based on the character's appearance in Revenge of the Sith. The detail of that design is clear to see, as Sidious has his iconicly evil pale visage and yellow Sith eyes. With both a lightsaber and Force lightning hands as accessories, collectors can use this figure to display truly unlimited power.
Star Wars: The Black Series Yoda & Clone Commander Gree

Price $49.99 Available Fall 2024 Accessories Alternate Yoda head, lightsaber, lightsaber blade, council chair, walking stick, 2 blaster accessories
Another multipack is the duo of Jedi Master Yoda and Clone Commander Gree, based on their appearances in Star Wars: The Clone Wars. As their appearance is based on the animated show, the two work together well before Order 66 was ever enacted. While Gree stands at 6-inches tall, Yoda is true to his size in the movies and significantly smaller. To make up for his diminished size, this multipack includes several accessories for Yoda, including his lightsaber, Jedi Council chair, and walking stick.
Star Wars: The Black Series Captain Enoch & Night Trooper
Close
Price $49.99 Available Fall 2024 Accessories 2 blaster accessories
The newest addition to Star Wars that is included in Hasbro's Black Series line comes from Ahsoka in the form of Captain Enoch and a night trooper. Together, they serve as one of the most frightening parts of Grand Admiral Thrawn's return from exile. The 6-inch figures also include exquisite detail, from Enoch's golden face plate to the night trooper's damaged armor. With fully posable limbs, collectors can also visually convey how the night troopers were resurrected by the Nightsisters of Dathomir, and how powerful their magick was.
Star Wars: The Black Series Super Battle Droid
Close
Price $24.99 Available Fall 2024 Accessories Blast effect accessory
Hasbro has also included one of the Separatists' most powerful units on the battlefield, the B2 super battle droid. The super battle droid's model is based on its appearance in Attack of the Clones, as seen by the slimmer build of its torso and head than it appeared in The Clone Wars. With the included laser blast effect accessory, collectors can use this figure for any number of prequel-era battle scenarios to give the heroes more than enough of a challenge.
Star Wars: The Vintage Collection X-Wing Pilot 4-Pack
Close
Price $54.99 Available Fall 2024 Accessories Removable helmets, 3 sets of small and medium blasters
While Hasbro's main focus with its recent releases is certainly on the prequel trilogy, the original trilogy also got some representation via a 4-pack of Rebel X-Wing pilots. Featuring two humans, a Duros, and a Mirialan, Hasbro has exemplified how much of the galaxy joined together in the Rebel Alliance to help combat the Galactic Empire. The pilots aren't just deadly in space, though, as they also come with several sets of blasters in case they need to defend themselves outside of the cockpit of their X-Wings.
Star Wars: Retro Collection Episode II & Episode III Multipack
Close
Price $59.99 Available Fall 2024 Accessories 10 accessories, including lightsabers and blasters
By far the largest multipack of Hasbro's recent announcements comes from the Retro Collection and its pack based on the second and third installments in the prequel trilogy. The pack includes 3.75 inch figures of Padmé Amidala, Mace Windu, and Jango Fett based on their appearance in Attack of the Clones, and Anakin Skywalker, General Grievous, and a clone trooper in Revenge of the Sith. With six different characters and 10 total accessories, this pack could fill out a collection very well, and help give the prequel trilogy a more nostalgic feel.
