Tamashii Nations S.H. Figuarts Star Wars releases of R2-D2, C-3PO, Darth Vader, and a Stormtrooper

Pre-orders for the new set of S.H. Figuarts Star Wars figures will open on the 3rd of June. This updated set features R2-D2, C-3PO, Darth Vader, and an Imperial Stormtrooper. All of these have been released previously, but these 2024 revisits included updated decor and tweaks. This includes an update on Threepio to a plating finish rather than Vac-Metal.



The Stormtrooper and Darth Vader are October 2024 releases, while the two Droids arrive in November. It is not clear if the Obi-Wan Kenobi used in the image with Darth Vader is a preview of another re-release incoming or not?




One of the loved character from the movie “STAR WARS: A New Hope”, R2-D2 is joining the S.H.Figuarts line with a new coloring! More than before, with the new coloring R2-D2 -Classic Ver.- is made to look truer to the movie!



From the movie “STAR WARS: A New Hope”, C-3PO is joining the S.H.Figuarts line with plating!

Previously, C-3PO was made with metallic painting but this C-3PO has evolved…! C-3PO-Classic Ver.- (STAR WARS: A New Hope) is made with plating and amazing articulation!



From the movie “STAR WARS: A New Hope”, STORMTROOPER is joining the S.H.Figuarts line with new coloring! Small details around eyes, the coloring, joint mobility, allows you to recreate many scenes from the movie!



From the movie “STAR WARS: A New Hope”, DARTH VADER is joining the S.H.Figuarts with a cloth material cloak! Both inner and outer cloak is made from a cloth material, allowing you recreate more scenes from the movie!!

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...
