By Elaine Tveit
StarWars.com took in fans’ votes for Hasbro’s next 3.75-inch Vintage Collection figure and narrowed them down to just six characters. It’s time to place your vote one more time.
You voted, Dork Siders. Now, the candidates for Hasbro’s Star Wars Vintage Collection of 3.75-inch action figures are down to six.
From 2010-2012, Hasbro released 3.75-inch Star Wars action figures in what the company dubbed the “Vintage Collection.” The toy line featured characters from across the saga, packaged in a design recalling the Kenner toy line of 1978-1984 (via Rebelscum.com). After 2012, the line went into hiatus.
Then, at Star Wars Celebration Orlando this year, Hasbro announced the renewal of the Vintage Collection line. During the same panel, the company also announced another Hasbro Star Wars fan vote. In the past two years, fans voted for their favorite characters from all areas of Star Wars canon to be made into 6-inch action figures for Hasbro’s Black Series line. This year, the focus is on the 3.75-inch figures in the Vintage Collection.
Starting April 15, 2017, Star Wars fans submitted their votes for the characters they wanted to see most in the Vintage Collection format. Next, StarWars.com compiled all those votes and narrowed the options down to just six characters. We have those characters listed for you below:
Doctor Aphra: An original Marvel
Star Wars

Darth Vader
series. She now has her own ongoing comic series.
