4 highlights from Star Wars’ Triple Force Friday reveal
Triple Force Friday will bring a slew of new Star Wars merchandise. Here are four on my radar.
If you weren’t glued to your computer or phone today, you might have missed the big Star Wars Triple Force Friday reveal. On October 4, several new toys, books, clothing and more will be released depicting characters and moments from The Rise of Skywalker and The Mandalorian.
And Star Wars couldn’t have done it in a better way. It did a live stream with actors from The Rise of Skywalker and The Mandalorian in house to check out the figurines and Funko Pop! coming next week.

While there was so much happening, there were a few that caught my eye. Here are the four pieces of Star Wars merchandise I’m most excited for:
ARTFX D-0 and BB-8
How cute is D-0 and what an amazing marketing component he is for kids. Yes, I view lots of things through the lens of marketing, but it’s true. BB-8 has been around for two movies and has been fantastic. How else is Lucasfilm supposed to get your dollors but with another adorable droid?
Star Wars: The Black Series Carbonized Collection – The Mandalorian
Pretty much anything from The Mandalorian is right up my alley. I cannot wait for this show to premiere on Disney+. Also, his costume is pretty great. Yes, it’s like Boba Fett’s but at least we’ll get to see Pedro Pascal in this one for more than a few minutes.
Funko Pop! Vinyls
I’m loving all of these Pop! vinyls and there seems to be a wide assortment of them coming out for Triple Force Friday. The ones that I’m chasing are Janna, which provides great detail even for a Pop!, and Rose. It’s about time Rose has started to appear in the marketing push for The Rise of Skywalker.
The Rise of Skywalker First Order Deluxe Figurine Set
The 10-piece set features a number characters that are part of the First Order for The Rise of Skywalker. It features the Kylo Ren, the Knights of Ren, a couple of stormtroopers and the Sith Trooper.
But where is Hux?
