Hasbro reveals what might be the best Darth Vader action figure in Star Wars toys panel
What might be the best Darth Vader action figure yet, Force ghosts, a very cool version of the Mandalorian's new ride, and a new helmet that opens up old wounds from the Clone Wars made up just a few of the Star Wars toys revealed by Hasbro.
Unveiled as part of Star Wars Celebration 2023, more than a dozen new Star Wars toys across The Black Series and The Vintage Collection were shown off during a crowded Hasbro panel.

As a general note, most of these Star Wars toys are going up for pre-order on April 11 and will launch from the middle to end of 2023. (Sorry to anyone wanting them as cool Star Wars gifts in the here and now.)
Return of the Jedi's 40th anniversary has been a big focus for Hasbro this past year, and the final additions to that line are jam-packed with all the good stuff. Along with a Vintage Collection multi-pack featuring 3-inch versions of classic background characters (like the one everyone calls Squid Head and that guy who shot Luke in the hand on the barge), we're also getting yet another new Black Series six-inch Darth Vader… but there's a difference. Seeing as this one is based on the original trilogy's final chapter, his helmet comes off in three pieces to reveal scorched old Anakin underneath. One hand also detaches to reveal the wires beneath, so it's arguably the most versatile Vader figure of all the ones we've seen so far.
Luke also got a rework, this time representing the Jedi Knight
