Hasbro 1027: Star Wars Black Series & Vintage Collection Reveals

Updated: Oct 28, 2023

Hasbro's Premium Members 1027 event took place on the evening of the 27th of October 2023 and had reveals from across the Hasbro key product lines.


The Star Wars Black Series reveals started a bit ahead of time with a sneak peek at a new sub-series of Black Series figures called the 'Clones of the Republic' series. The first of these new releases will see an exclusive 2-pack of Mace Mindu - updated with his Clone armour - and a 187th Clone Trooper (this time with the purple colouring inspired by the comics and Hasbro's original 3.75-inch figure rather than the muted burgundy we saw on the Clone Wars single release. The dual angle-sided box remains in line with the Galaxy Collection, but the series doesn't fit in with the other Clone Wars releases and was named as a 'Entertainment Agnostic' packaging - so not aligned with any of the other collections.


The set is a Disney Store exclusive with stocks also sold on Hasbro Pulse. The set is a March 2024 release, with the pre-orders on Hasbro Pulse open now - while the team confirmed the Shop Disney listing will follow as part of a wider 'Clones of the Republic' program.


We also knew that a re-release of Paz Vizsla from The Mandalorian was incoming after a pipeline reveal earlier this year. The figure will be a deluxe repack and placed into the Galaxy Collection box under The Mandalorian banner. It will be released in April 2024 and is a general release across all Black Series retailers.


In terms of the Vintage Collection, the solitary 1027 reveal was the full look at the previously confirmed updated Cassian Andor figure from Rogue One. He is due to be a March 2024 release.

About Me : As a child of the '70s and '80s I grew up in a golden age for action figures and in my youth bought and sold myself through collections of Star Wars, G.I. Joe (Action Force), and M.A.S.K. while also dabbling in He-Man, Transformers and Ghostbusters. Roll forward and I am now reliving that Youth with the action figures of today and am a collector and fan of the larger 6-8 inch figures from my favourite movie and TV licenses - including the ones mentioned above, but also the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Doctor Who, and the Aliens. I launched The Mephitsu Archives in 2015 with a view of creating a UK-focused site or these figures where fans can pick up the latest action figure news, read reviews and get information on where to buy their figures and what is currently on store shelves. I hope I am delivering that to you guys...
