Greetings and salutations, Star Wars collectors of all places! There has been a big announcement in the form of an all-new toy line from the final season of the critically acclaimed animated series Star Wars: The Clone Wars. For Hasbro's Star Wars Black Series action figure line has returned to The Clone Wars to gift unto that show's fans exactly who and what they may want. This line will be rolling out at least four new six-inch model action figures inspired by the cinematic conclusion of the long-running television series that has captivated a huge fraction of the Star Wars fandom.

Included within the line are a few of our very favorite characters, such as Ahsoka Tano, who will be wielding the two lightsabers that were gifted to her by Anakin Skywalker in the final arc of the TV show. Additionally, we can see that the line will add a fan favorite clone trooper from the 332nd Legion that was shown previously on the aforementioned TV series. This would be a great chance for any serious fan to recreate almost any scene from the show as a set piece on one of their shelves. We expect to see many future dioramas cropping up on social media fairly soon as a result of these releases.

While it would be ideal for other recent aspects of Star Wars to not be left out, the smash hit Disney+ exclusive show The Mandalorian actually did not get any figures of its own. Of course, this would not stop fans from repainting the two available figures that happen to be Mandalorians. One of these is a loyalist Mando who aided Ahsoka Tano during the course of the Siege of Mandalore arc that concluded the show. Alongside this figure is a very intimidating Maul-aligned spiky helmeted Mandalorian lackey, some of which were also featured heavily throughout that arc. As shown in the images respectfully above and below this section of the page.

Now, it is possible that some of you may be wondering about Ahsoka Tano. The character has previously been made into a figure when she appeared on the Disney XD show Star Wars Rebels back in the day. While this is true, Hasbro has stated that they have plans to release an updated version of her figure from that time around with updated photo-realistic features and portions. Hot on the heels of that release will be a few legionaries coming out with her sometime this summer season. Making many fans of the feisty character very happy, since there are not too many options to see the young Togruta. Marking this as one of the only time the alien species has been given a major action figure line not once but twice when the second figure hits shelves later.

Now, this leads us all to the question of pricing. The cost is not nearly as high as some of the other figures from the same line. Coming fresh off the casting line at a reasonable $25 USD apiece with the scheduled release date of sometime this fall, pre-orders have already been taken. If you are interested in owning one of these surely to be coveted figures for yourself, I would suggest getting the leg up and heading over to Walmart.com, as they have an exclusive offer that has been up since July 17th at 10 am EST.

In concluion, it really is just a fantastic time to be able to see so much detail given out for fans new and old. So whether you purchase one for yourself or one for the young collector in your life, they're sure to bring you one step closer to the force. May the force be with you.
