Star Wars Vintage Collection 'May the 4th' live stream reveals

The Hasbro Star Wars 'May the 4th' live stream brought us details of a number of new Vintage Collection releases for the 3.75-inch collectors.


It started with the next in the Army Building boxsets, confirmed as being a set of Phase 1 Clone Troopers from Attack of the Clones. The set includes 3 troopers and a blue marked Lieutenant as well as a selection of weaponry. The set is a Hasbro Pulse Exclusive and will be released in the Winter of 2022.



Coming as general releases in Spring 2023 are the Vintage Collection figures of Anakin Skywalker as a Padawan, the Mandalorian Super Commando, and the 332nd 'Ahsoka's' Clone Trooper.



There are then two Gaming Greats exclusive planned as Autumn 2022 releases. Both are Imperial Troopers with a Stormtrooper Commander from The Force Unleashed and a Heavy Assault Stormtrooper from Jedi: Fallen Order. These are both shared Fan Channel Exclusives.



The only other 3.75-inch reveal was in the Retro series where six of the original Retro figures will be repacked as a box-set paying homage to the original Early Bird program and the first boxed figures sent out in 1978. The set includes individually carded figures of Luke Skywalker, Han Solo, Princess Leia, Darth Vader, Stormtrooper, and Chewbacca inside the outer box. This set will be sold first at Disneyland Resort in the US, with a further offering via Hasbro Pulse and Shop Disney.

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...
