Halloween may be four months away, but there's no reason why we can't start looking forward to it now. Besides the cooling temps of October and also Halloween, there's another reason to look forward to Halloween this year, and it's Star Wars related.
Hasbro recently held a Star Wars fanstream on YouTube (43:50 is when the Halloween figures are revealed) in which they showcased the latest and upcoming action figures from a galaxy far, far away. While all the figures revealed looked pretty cool, it was the end of the stream that really held my attention, as the hosts showed off some Halloween-specific figures that will be launching this fall.
Get Your Witch On with this witchy Asajj Ventress figure!
First up is everyone's favorite Nightsister (Sorry, Merrin fans), and Sith Assassin, Asajj Ventress! Her normal look has been switched to a green one similar to the Wicked Witch from The Wizard of Oz, and she's been given a Halloween-inspired witchy outfit too. Ventress is also getting orange and purple lightsabers, a broom because what is a witch without a broom, and a black Bogling in place of a black cat.
Witchy Asajj Ventress will be exclusive via Amazon and Hasbro's Fan Channel with a retail price of $24.99 and will release later this Fall.
Imperial Guard? More like Imperial Ghost!
The Emperor's Royal Guard was pretty intimidating and could even be somewhat scary to younger viewers while draped in their red attire and black visors. This Halloween, however, they'll be downright spooky while decked out in their ghostly attire.
Besides doing their best impression of a Jedi Force Ghost, the Halloween Imperial Guard will also glow in the dark, and combined with the cloak, looks really awesome! To top it all off, they'll also get a green Bogling as a pet, which is pretty cool.
The ghostly Imperial Guard will be exclusive to Target and Hasbro's Fan Channel, and will cost $24.99 and will release in Fall 2025.
Rule the night with the Night Trooper!
Last but certainly not least, we have the Halloween variant of the Night Trooper, which is inspired by the Night Troopers from Ahsoka. While they look similar to their counterparts from Ahsoka, adding green to some of their armor, the mummy wraps, stitches, and staff are all nice touches and very Halloween-looking.
Similar to the other figures, the Night Trooper will also come with a pet, but instead of a Bogling, it'll be a Porg, which was introduced in Star Wars Episode VIII: The Last Jedi. The Night Trooper will also be launching in the Fall for $24.99 and will be exclusive to Walmart and the Fan Channel.
Halloween Decorations and Collecting
If you're a fan of both Star Wars and Halloween, these could make for some pretty awesome decorations once the spooky season rolls around. Being able to get all three for $75.00 plus tax, honestly, seems like a pretty good deal, especially if you're a collector.
While they can't be pre-ordered yet, I'd say it's best to get them sooner rather than later when they do open up for pre-orders. I already know how I'm going to use them to decorate for Halloween this year.
