Hasbro has announced the return of the iconic bounty hunter Boba Fett with a new action figure from their Star Wars Black Series. This reissue is inspired by Fett’s appearance in the critically acclaimed series, The Book of Boba Fett, which debuted on Disney+ as a spin-off of The Mandalorian. The figure will be available for pre-order starting today at 1 PM EST for $27.99, with an expected release in early 2026.
The Book of Boba Fett revitalized the character, showcasing his evolution from a feared bounty hunter to a figure seeking power through respect rather than intimidation. The series follows Fett as he escapes the Sarlacc pit and teams up with mercenary Fennec Shand to take control of the criminal underworld previously ruled by Jabba the Hutt on the desert planet Tatooine.
Details of the New Action Figure
This latest figure features a range of updates that reflect Fett’s character in the new series. It comes equipped with a removable helmet, updated armor, two blasters, and a jetpack. Notably, the packaging has undergone a redesign; while the previous slanted box design has been replaced, the side art has made a welcome return.
Before this reissue, the demand for the Boba Fett figure was lukewarm, which raises questions about Hasbro’s decision to bring it back to the market. Nevertheless, the figure is set to delight fans and collectors alike.
The Star Wars Black Series has been a staple for enthusiasts, featuring a wide range of 6-inch action figures, vehicles, and roleplay items that celebrate over 40 years of the Star Wars legacy. Each figure aims to replicate the intricate details seen in the films, television series, and comic books, allowing fans to recreate their favorite scenes from the galaxy far, far away.
As interest in the Star Wars universe continues to grow, particularly with new releases on streaming platforms, Hasbro’s decision to reintroduce this figure highlights both the ongoing popularity of Boba Fett and the company’s commitment to satisfying its fan base.
The pre-order link is now active on Hasbro Pulse, giving collectors an opportunity to secure this unique addition to their collections. With its combination of nostalgia and fresh design, the new Boba Fett figure is expected to be a hit among both long-time fans and newcomers to the franchise.
