The Force is turning 50, and Hasbro is celebrating with a new wave of collectibles inspired by the Star Wars film that started it all.
The new Star Wars 50th Anniversary collection features a wide variety of action figures, all re-creating iconic moments and characters from the saga’s 1977 debut, A New Hope. The drops span three of Hasbro’s fan-favorite figure lines: The Black Series, The Vintage Collection, and The Retro Collection. The collection will officially hit shelves next spring, but many items are available for pre-order now on Hasbro Pulse.

Luke Skywalker, Princess Leia, and R2-D2 all join The Black Series with new 6-inch action figures. Inspired by their appearances in A New Hope, each features multiple points of articulation and a variety of accessories, like Luke’s grappling hook and Leia’s blasters. Fans can display the figures on their own or in their vintage-inspired blister packaging, complete with special anniversary character artwork.

Meanwhile, The Vintage Collection is welcoming familiar faces from both sides of the Force. Fans can add Darth Vader, a Stormtrooper, and cantina patron Arleil Schous to their shelves, or re-create the daring Death Star rescue with a 4-pack featuring Luke, Leia, Han Solo, and Chewbacca. Every 3.75-inch-scale collectible also comes with its own blister card with classic Kenner branding, just like in the ‘70s and ‘80s.

For a blast from the past, The Retro Collection is expanding its lineup with vintage-style figures of Luke, Leia, Han, Chewbacca, Darth Vader, and Obi-Wan Kenobi, as well as two 2-packs: a Jawa with a Tusken Raider, and a Rebel Fleet Trooper with a Stormtrooper. There’s even an Episode IV Action Figure Set featuring C-3PO, R2-D2, and a Death Squad Commander, complete with a cardboard display inspired by Kenner’s original 1977 Early Bird Packaging.
Hasbro’s Star Wars 50th Anniversary figures are scheduled to arrive in spring 2027, but many are available for preorder now. To learn more, visit hasbropulse.com.
