Star Wars Imperial March reveals of Black Series Last Command and Clone Trooper & Battle Droid Sets + Vintage Collection HK-47 &Dark Trooper

The Star Wars Imperial March continues with four new reveals.


First is the Star Wars Black Series release of the Last Command 4-pack containing figures of Luke Skywalker, Luuke, Mara Jade, and Joruus C'baoth. This was a Pipeline reveal from late 2023. Each figure will come with their appropriate lightsaber, Force lightning hands for Jorrus C'baoth, and a blaster for Mara Jade.


Luke looks to be a direct re-pack of the Jedi Luke figure from Return of the Jedi. Mara Jade is a tweak with a new hooded head option which wasn't included in the original Publishing Wave release. Luuke looks to use some older Jedi parts with the same torso as Episode 2 Obi-Wan / Kit Fiston, the legs appear to be newer and the head is brand new. Jorrus is a new figure with no obvious re-use.


The set is a Hasbro Pulse Exclusive in special super-sized Publishing series packaging with an opening front cover. It will release in the Summer of 2024 and will go into Shop Disney and Disney Stores at a later date.



There is also a Clone Wars 2-pack Army Builder set featuring a Phase II Cone Trooper and a B1 Battle Droid. Both figures have been released previously, but are wrapped up here in a closed Troop Builder Box Set for those wanting to expand their forces supported by what looks like a lower price point than standard two packs.


The Clone Trooper includes both blaster and blaster rifle, as well as the removable helmet. It is identical to the recent 2023 release. The Battle Droid has a single blaster as well as the usual backpack. This is also a Hasbro Pulse Exclusive releasing in Summer 2024 and then heading to Shop Disney and Disney Stores.



For the Vintage Collection, there is a variant of the HK-86 Droid from Ahsoka as seen on the planet Arcana. The HK-87 will be joined by a single release of the Dark Trooper from The Mandalorian. Both figures are general releases in the Autumn.

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...
