We are always up for an excuse to share top tips about some of the incredible toys for geeks that you can get, and May the 4th (be with you) is as good a day as any to talk about HASBRO’s fantastic line of Star Wars Toys.
The Black Series The Ronin & R5-D56
Inspired by the incredible Star Wars Visions series, The Ronin and his trusty droid R5-D56 are amazingly articulated, rather lovely looking pieces designed to look as good in the box as they are on a special diorama on the shelf. The Ronin doesn’t actually fly (unless you fling it), but it’s so easy to pose it looks like it can.
The Vintage Collection X-Wing Pilot 4-Pack
This collection of 3.75-inch action figures lets you fill out your roster of rebels with four brave X-Wing pilots. With removable blasters and helmets, this team of heroes will look amazing in an X-Wing or in any Rebel base collection you can imagine.
The Black Series Obi-Wan Kenobi (Padawan)
Young Obi-Wan Kenobi looks ready to take on a Sith Lord in this Black Series version of the heroic Jedi. Complete with Lightsaber and padawan braid.
The Black Series Star Wars: The Last Command 4-Pack
Honestly a bit of a weird set, but well worth it. This is a series of toys inspired by Star Wars Legends, specifically the comic book The Last Command. As such the set includes a post The Return of The Jedi Luke Skywalker, Luke’s clone (called Luuke, yes really), Luke Skywalker’s wife, Mara Jade, and renegade master, Joruus C’baoth, All in plastic toy form. Odd, but awesome.
Fresh from The Acolyte, this Osha Aniseya figure comes with four accessories, including a blaster and a removable backpack.
The Vintage Collection Enoch & Thrawn’s Night Troopers
Disney +’s Star Wars shows brought us many, many awesome Star Wars things, but few could have predicted Zombie Stormtroopers. These wonderfully creepy toys are brilliantly rendered.
The Black Series Rebel Trooper & Stormtrooper
Wonderfully articulated and extremely eye catching, the Rebel and Stormtrooper set is perfect for anyone planning on recreating the opening of Star Wars. Just add a Leia and a Darth Vader and about a dozen of these sets and you’ve got everything you need.
The Black Series Clone Trooper & Battle Droid
This lovely set includes one each of the ‘good guy’ and the ‘bad guy’. In this case, it is a Clone Trooper and a very sturdy Battle Droid. Fun fact: none of the Battle Droids ever found a clone trooper called Roger, despite their repeated attempts to call him out.
Inspired by the TV series of the same name, this fully poseable action figure version of Ahsoka Tano is a must for completionists and fans. It’s a striking model, and it almost looks like it’s stepped off the screen.
The Vintage Collection Bantha & Tusken Raider 2-Pack
This lovely fuzzy friend and his Tusken Raider rider companion come with really nice fur and lots of cool accessories and are presented in a ‘vintage’ style box, even though the toys of the 70s were never quite this cool. Don’t be ‘like a Bantha’, just own an actual Bantha!
