Star Wars: The Black Series

Star Wars: The Black Series is an ongoing Star Wars toy line produced by the Hasbro company starting in 2013. The toy line includes action figures in both the 3.75" and 6" scales, vehicles, Force FX lightsabers, collectible items, and more. A collection celebrating the fortieth anniversary of Star Wars: Episode IV A New Hope was released as part of the line in 2017.

Many of the actions figures are based on characters from the movies, the shows, books, comics, and video games from both the Star Wars Legends continuity and canon. Several Legends characters were produced thanks to the Hasbro's Black Series Fan Choice throughout the year, including Mara Jade Skywalker in 2012, Revan in 2015, and Jaina Solo in 2016. Grand Admiral Thrawn was also announced at Celebration Orlando as an upcoming figure in the six inch line of figures, announced by Timothy Zahn (Thrawn's creator) and Dave Filoni (the one responsible for bringing Thrawn into canon in Star Wars Rebels). The 3.75" scale action figure subline was discontinued upon the revival of Hasbro's Star Wars: The Vintage Collection line in 2018.

A special Black Series Titanium vehicle modeled after the First Order TIE Fighter was given out for free to subscribers for Star Wars Insider 171.
