Star Wars has captivated audiences ever since the original film debuted in theaters in 1977. In the wake of its overwhelming success, there have been television shows, more movies, games, books, and more, all set in the Star Wars universe.
Merchandise for such a notable IP includes so much more than just the stories, themselves. Action figures have long been front-and-center for kids of all ages. From cute toys for younger kids to the ever-impressive Black Series of official, detailed action figures, these Star Wars action figures are the best around.
The Mandalorian is one of the most well-received Star Wars entries in recent memory, and its cast of characters is a big part of the appeal. The Mandalorian has become one of the most notorious bounty hunters in the galaxy, easily completing virtually any task set before him. Well, most of the time...
The Black Series Mandalorian figure depicts The Mandalorian as he appears at the beginning of Season 1, and includes his Amban rifle and small sidearm blaster.
Rey may have started her journey as a scavenger on Jakku, but her adventures have taken her across the galaxy and introduced her to The First Order, The Resistance, Luke Skywalker, The Force, and even the Dark Side.
Now an incredibly powerful Force-user, The Black Series Rey figure depicts her as she appears in Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker and comes complete with her blaster and battle staff, Anakin’s blue lightsaber, and D-0 droid figure.
This fun, multi-figure kit comes with six Imperial action figures from the Star Wars films. It has a Scout Trooper, Snowtrooper, Tie Fighter Pilot, Sandtrooper, Stormtrooper, and a Shadow Trooper figure to fill out the fun little roster, which are appropriate for younger kids to play with.
2019 was a huge year for Star Wars between Disney+ series “The Mandalorian” and the blockbuster film “The Rise of Skywalker.” One of the biggest critical hits, however, was the Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order video game. The hero of the game, Cal Kestis, is a young padawan who is hiding from The Empire in the wake of Order 66 who has the ability to see the history of objects through The Force.
This Black Series Cal Kestis figure depicts him as he appears near the beginning of the game. Although it does not include his scrapper poncho, it has many points of articulation and comes with his droid companion, BD-1, as well as his master’s blue lightsaber.
Few figures cast a bigger shadow in the new Star Wars films than Kylo Ren. After the events of The Last Jedi, Kylo assumed the role of Supreme Leader, giving him even more power with which to enforce his will.
This Black Series Supreme Leader Kylo Ren action figure represents Kylo as he appears at the beginning of Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker. It comes with his cloak, both active and extinguished versions of his iconic lightsaber, and a detachable hood.
The First Order’s Stormtroopers are on the front lines of the war with the Resistance and have been trained since birth to fight for the Supreme Leader. These armored soldiers have adopted new weapons and tactics since the days of the Empire, and their armor and arsenal reflect that.
This Black Series First Order Stormtrooper is highly poseable with many points of articulation. It also comes with several accessories, including a shock baton, a blaster, and an armored shield.
Luke Skywalker begins his journey in Star Wars as a lonely moisture farmer, bored with his life on Tatooine, but soon he's swept up in a galaxy-spanning adventure. He first learns of The Force from Obi-wan Kenobi, later travelling to Dagobah to begin his Jedi training under Master Yoda. In time, he becomes a powerful Jedi Knight and resolves to face the most dangerous threat in the galaxy: Darth Vader.
This Black Series Jedi Knight Luke Skywalker figure depicts the hero as he appears at the beginning of Star Wars: Return of the Jedi, and includes his blaster pistol and iconic green lightsaber.
