Star Wars Imperial March Reveals of the Masters of Evil Set and Baylan Skoll Mercenary

The Star Wars Imperial March reveals continue with two more exclusive releases confirmed today.


Up first is an Amazon 3-pack of Grand Admiral Thrawn, General Grievous, and Darth Vader. The set features exclusive decor and packaging. Thrawn uses the new live-action version and comes with a Ysalamiri. Vader remains relatively the same as in recent releases, and Grievous uses the Tartakovsky Clone Wars decor.



The set is titled Masters of Evvil and features an impressive outer boxi with the figures inside individually carded in a style similar to the Archive Series. Pre-orders are live now at Amazon in the US and the set will arrive in Spring 2025.

The second reveal is a new version of Baylan Soll from Ahsoka on Disney+. This is titled the Mercenary release and uses the existing figure but adds a soft goods cloak - it is very unlikely the height issues will be resolved. It will sit in the Ahsoka collection as number 13 and uses the new packaging.



This is a Walmart release in the US and should get a Fan Channe l release here in the UK. It will be an Autumn 2024 releases with pre-orders opening a bit later this year.

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...
