Fans of *Star Wars Jedi: Survivor* were delighted to see new figures in this latest wave of Star Wars toys. Nightsister Merrin has been immortalized in a new figure, while series protagonist Cal Kestis is featured in a captivating three-pack set alongside Turgle and Skoova Stev. Notably, Cal comes with multiple interchangeable heads, including one sporting a handlebar mustache, which was a key focus for this release.

"Honestly, we just wanted to have fun with it," Houle shared with IGN. "This is one of my favorite packs that we revealed in the panel. We actually started with the handlebar mustache and the mullet and then added the clean-cut and short beard later. So for us, the primary look is almost the handlebar, and it's just so much fun."

As for Merrin, her inclusion was essential given her significant role in the *Fallen Order/Survivor* saga. The challenge lay in capturing her unique Force abilities accurately.

"It's tough to have Cal without Merrin," Reiff explained. "So we're glad we finally got to Merrin, but doing that Force effect, the green blast, all the great detail of that new costume, and the face tattoos with the inkjet—it's all about beautiful subtlety. She's a really cool character, and we know fans are invested in her, so being able to build out that world is exciting."

This year's lineup also includes two well-known characters, Han Solo and Chewbacca. Despite the numerous figures of these heroes released over the years, Houle believes there's still room for enhancement.

"I mean, we haven't done them in a long time," Houle remarked. "They needed an update, so we gave them fully new tools so they're brand new with the latest articulation. Fans can now celebrate and enjoy these classic characters with the latest technology and articulation. We've made several updates on top of the articulation. We learned a lot from the Wookiees we've done, especially those with really long hair."

Houle elaborated, "And so, despite the long hair, using softer plastics allows Chewbacca to pivot and move his head seamlessly, which was really important to us. We added articulation to Han too, but we didn't give him the thigh break because we wanted to keep the red bars on his right thigh clean. So we added articulation to the top of the boot instead."

Perhaps the most visually striking figure in this lineup is The Ronin, inspired by the anime anthology series *Star Wars: Visions*. Staying true to the series, The Ronin is presented in black-and-white with the only splash of color coming from his red katana lightsaber. As a Celebration-exclusive release, both Houle and Reiff emphasized the importance of nailing the small details.

"I love that we kept to it," Houle said. "We drew from our knowledge of Japanese culture for the design of the box, how premium it looks, the magnets that let it open, the clean look, the watercoloring, and the hidden accessories on the top of the box. Everything was meticulously planned from packaging to design to engineering."

Reiff added, "And even the Japanese language for this exclusive packaging—we don't do that normally, but because we're here in Japan, we wanted to embrace it and create a special package that's entirely in Japanese."

Finally, Hasbro also unveiled a stunning addition to their 1:1 scale Black Series helmet line: a meticulously detailed Death Trooper helmet during their Celebration panel.

"[It's] a great fully new tooled helmet for the Black Series Premium roleplay line," Reiff stated. "It looks like it's straight out of the movie with the weathering, the lighting detail, and you can control the chin lights and the spectre sensor lights with a button on the side. Working with Lucasfilm in partnership, we used original files to nail all the details of this helmet and added our own touches to the interior, which the real ones never had."
