Fisher-Price has new toys designed for the youngest fans of iconic brands.

With Comic-Con International San Diego (SDCC) coming later this month, it’s the perfect time for companies to release new toys featuring fan-favorite franchises. Fisher-Price has toys on the way that won’t be coming to the con, but are bringing beloved brands to the youngest fans. The Mattel subsidiary is launching Imaginext toys for kids ages 3 and up featuring Star Wars, Jurassic World, and Batman releasing this fall.

Two new toys are coming to kids from a galaxy far, far away. The Star Wars Darth Vader Bot is more than 2 feet tall. Kids can place the included Stormtrooper character key on the robot’s shoulder Power Pad to turn on lights, start sounds, and open the torso, revealing a hidden disc launcher. The Darth Vader Bot is available now.

The Star Wars R2-D2 is more than 17 inches tall and features lights, sounds, and a hidden projectile launcher. Kids can place the C-3P0 character key on the Power Pad to have R2-D2 react with sounds and head-spinning. The Imaginext R2-D2 will be released this fall.

Dinosaurs and superheroes round out the new Imaginext toys. The Jurassic World Attack Mode Dilophosaurus is more than 16 inches tall and features lights, sounds, expanding frills, and a projectile-launching “spitting” action. 

The DC Super Friends Transforming Bat-Tank can transform into battle mode, revealing a hidden launcher. Up to six Imaginext figures can fit in the transport truck. Both the Transforming Bat-Tank and Attack Mode Dilophosaurus will launch this fall.

SDCC runs from July 25-28 at the San Diego Convention Center, but young fans who miss the convention can still participate in fandom with their family thanks to Fisher-Price’s newest releases.
