SDCC 2023 Hasbro Star Wars Vintage Collection HasLab The Ghost


The big (literally) reveal at the Hasbro Star Wars panel was the next Star Wars HasLab project, The Ghost from the upcoming Ahsoka series. While the Ghost is designed using the ship as it will be seen in the Ahsoka series - it does have plenty of nods to Star Wars Rebels.


The Ghost will measure 28 inches by 34 inches and stands 13 inches tall. It features opening cockpit and crew compartments as well as rotating turrets, landing gear, and opening front ramp. The package also includes a Phantom II shuttle that docks into the Ghost. And to piot the ship, you will receive a Rebels Season 4 Hera Syndula carded figure, with card art based on the mural of the Ghost crew from Season 4.


Collectors across all of the Hasbro Pulse territories have until the 7th of September to place their order - with The Ghost costing $499 / £499 which will be charged just after the 7th assuming the Ghost meets its 8000 minimum backers.


Should the project exceed 8000 units there are three further tiers, each one adding another Rebels carded figure to the project. Ezra Bridger is unlocked at 11k units, Kanan Jarus at 14k units, and Zeb Orrelius at 17k



Now’s your chance to join the Ghost crew with this one-of-a-kind HasLab vehicle inspired by the highly anticipated Disney+ series, Star Wars: Ahsoka™!

  • Star Wars: The Vintage Collection Ghost vehicle

Star Wars fans, we’re back with a special mission …  After the success of The Vintage Collection Razor Crest, the HasLab team wanted to create something that ties together the stories and characters we all love from the Star Wars™ galaxy. With more series, characters, and story arcs adding to the canon that we’ve followed dedicatedly for decades, how could we capture the Star Wars™ legacy--where it’s been, and where it’s going--in a single project?  The Ghost is not just any ship. It’s been highly requested by you, the fans, not just for its intricate design but for everything it represents: the beginnings of the Rebel Alliance, the power of resilience and found family, and maintaining hope against all odds. Now, Ahsoka Tano is on a mission to protect a vulnerable galaxy in the aftermath of the fall of the Empire. To do so, she’s enlisting help from some old allies – ones that once knew her as “Fulcrum.” Enter the well-loved starship that the Spectre crew once called home … We’re thrilled to bring you the Ghost as it appears in the upcoming entertainment Star Wars: Ahsoka – and the chance to celebrate characters you know and love. Now’s your chance to become the newest member of the Ghost crew and help fund this ship for departure -- destination: your collection.

Join the crew & help us fund today! 


Inspired Design  Collaborating with Doug Chiang at ILM and Lucasfilm, we created a vehicle that’s seen it all -- one that’s soared at lightspeed across animation, movies, and now, live-action series.   


Galactic Scale

The largest ship we’ve built since Jabba’s Sail Barge, the Ghost measures over 28 inches by 34 inches and sits at over 13 inches tall, with the capacity for at least 15 figures.

Plus, it’s decked out with all the essentials. Let’s take a look.


One of the Galaxy’s Most Famous Starships Imagine standing at the docking port, gazing up at the monumental sight before you. Take in the Ghost’s exterior, featuring:

  • Opening front ramp

  • Removable landing gear

  • Multiple removable panels for interior access and play

  • Nose turret with removable canopy

  • Signature 360-degree dorsal laser cannon turret

  • Docking bay for the Phantom II to snap into place

With detailed exterior paint and window bubbles to see into the action at both turrets, this vehicle is not just a display piece -- it’s an experience. You’re already reeling just from standing before the massive freighter, and now you’ll get a glimpse inside ...



Welcome Aboard the Ghost The Ghost interior features:

  • Main cockpit with seating for 4

  • Nose turret with seating for 1

  • Crew quarters with bunk beds

  • The Captain’s quarters with single bed

  • Galley and lounge with seating, game table, and dining table


It’s All in the Details

There are endless storytelling opportunities with this ship – and we want to give you, the fans, the chance to explore them all.


The interior of the ship lets you experience the Ghost like you’ve never seen it before. Imagine characters gathering around the table in the galley, bonding as only members of the wayfaring Ghost crew could. Or perhaps you’ll find them in the cockpit, backseat piloting with their fearless leader.


Speaking of which … As you’re well aware, a ship can’t fly itself. Which brings us to ...



Exclusive Carded Figure: The Pilot, General Hera Syndulla 

The captain and heart of the Ghost crew, General Hera Syndulla is a gifted pilot and leader.

If this project funds, it will include an exclusive Star Wars Rebels™ carded 3.75-inch-scale figure with a meiloorun fruit, Kalikori totem, and blaster -- so Hera is at the ready to take off in her beloved craft at a moment’s notice. As always, she’ll be complete with the high-quality deco and design that TVC fans love, based on her appearance in Season 4 of Star Wars Rebels -- plus a cardback inspired by Sabine Wren’s Spectres mural from the series finale. 

Of course, we’d be remiss to build a Ghost without its signature shuttle … 



The Phantom II 

The ship’s shuttle that acts as fully-armed starfighter, the Phantom II became the replacement short-range shuttle craft for the Ghost (after the original Phantom was destroyed on Yarma) – and includes forward laser canons.


This and so much more make up our dream design for the Ghost.

  • Cockpit with seating for 1 figure

  • Functional landing gear

  • Exclusive removable mini bust of Chopper that can be popped in and out behind the cockpit exterior

Classic Packaging – and a Tribute to the Spectre Crew Calling back to the original 1970s and 1980s Star Wars collectibles, this The Vintage Collection Ghost vehicle features Kenner branding and package design for a nostalgic display. 


In the final episode of Star Wars Rebels, Sabine Wren uses her graffiti artistry to commemorate the adventures of the Spectre cell in a poignant mural. Each tier unlock figure cardback highlights the character’s portrait from the larger mural, reflecting just how important the crew is to each other and to the success of the Rebellion. 


Do You Accept Your Mission?  This iconic ship weaves stories together from across the Star Wars galaxy, from Rogue One: A Star Wars Story™ to Ahsoka. We want to make a high-quality vehicle that immerses fans in those stories – and lets them imagine countless more. And as ever, we want to make sure we adhere to TVC standards of quality and attention to detail, pulling the ship from the screen into your hands.  So, what are you waiting for? Join the Ghost crew (and the HasLab team!) in helping bring this piece of Star Wars lore to life in The Vintage Collection. Don’t wait! You only have until 9/6/2023 to fund this project, and we need 8,000 backers. Are you ready to bring the Ghost to life?

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...
