SDCC 2023 Star Wars Black Series Reveals from Ahsoka, R2-D2 from The Mandalorian & more

The SDCC 2023 Hasbro Star Wars Panel revealed the first three figures based on the Disney+ Ahsoka series. Arriving in Autumn 2023 are new figures of Ahsoka Tano, General Hera Syndulla, and Sabine Wren, The Ahsoka Black Series releases will also include a new FX Force Elite roleplay lightsaber which is an Autumn 2024 release.


While we are sure Ahsoka Tano will be #01 in the Ahsoka series, it doesn't appear as though Hera and Sabine run concurrently as number #02 and #03. The side artwork does appear to show other Ahsoka figures in the interim.



The other reveal of the panel is the new R2-D2 figure which gets a release in the Black Series Galaxy Collection packaging within The Mandalorian collection. This is the same figure as the Return of the Jedi 40th Anniversary carded release.


The traditional pipeline reveals closed the show with confirmation that the Black Series team are working on releases for The Droideka Destroyer Droid, the B2 Super Battle Droid, and C-3PO on Battle Droid body from the Battle of Geonosis. We would assume these three will all be released in the Attack of the Clones series.



We can also look forward to some Amazon-exclusive figures from Jedi: Fallen Order. These Gaming Greats pipeline figures include Cal Kestis in the Inquisitor outfit, the Second Sister Trilla, and a Purge Trooper with Electrohammer.

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...
