The fourth week of Mando Mania saw two more Star Wars action figure reveals as well as a new roleplay item.
In the Star Wars Black Series, there is a new Deluxe 'Build Up' set incoming this Autumn (2023) containing Luke Skywalker and Grogu as seen in their scenes during The Book of Boba Fett. The Luke figure does not appear to be a direct re-release of the Mandalorian Luke Skywalker, while Grogu is tweaked as well. The set features some scene-appropriate accessories including Luke's lightsaber, Yoda's old lightsaber in a wooden case, a wearable backpack in which Grogu can sit, a training remote, a blast effect, a rock and stand for Grogu to leap over, and a frog for Grogu to chase. The UK price is listed as £44.99 and this is a general release.
This Luke Skywalker reveal now seems to have established the pattern that the Mando Mania Black Series reveals are very much in line with the Book of Boba Fett pipeline characters, meaning we can also expect the future Mando Mania reveals to include Krrsantan, the Pyke Syndicate Trooper, and Cad Bane. The pipeline info also includes a new and updated Mando figure which is another shoo-in for the Mando Mania program. See our Star Wars Black Series Database for more info.
In the Vintage Collection, we also have a Book of Boba Fett release, a new 3.75-inch figure of Cad Bane featuring twin blasters, and a removable hat. This new Cad Bane figure is also scheduled for an Autumn 2023 release.
The final Hasbro reveal is a new kid-focused roleplaying release of Ahsoka's lightsaber. This is a Lightsaber Forge release so features lights and sounds as well as parts that can be swapped out with other Lightsaber Forge releases for endless combinations.
There are other Mando Mania Week 4 reveals including a Paz Vizsla Bust from Gentle Giant, some Grogu cufflinks, a Lego micro ship release of Mando and his new N-1 starfighter, and a Mandalorian stud set.

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...
