Star Wars Black Series 'a new era begins' with the Saga Wave 1 for 2027

The new Star Wars Black Series Saga Wave went live for pre-orders as of the 15th of October 2026 at Hasbro Pulse and all Black Series stockists.



The wave signals a new era for the Black Series, with updated packaging and logo, and the first wave is dedicated to the Prequel and Original Trilogies, with one figure from each of the first six movies. These include Queen Amidala, Padawan Anakin, a Galactic Marine, Luke X-Wing, IG-88, and Tessek (Squidface).



These will also feature in a special 1997 VHS box set version at Hasbro Pulse and Amazon, where each figure is fitted with a special sleeve, and then all six sit in a special presentation box.


Both singles and the box set are being listed as March 2027 releases. We've added all these new primo images into our full and comprehensive Star Wars Black Series Collector Database

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...
