Star Wars R5-D4 Makes His Comeback with Two New Hasbro Figures 

Hasbro is back with even more Star Wars reveals for Mando Mania including brand new figures of droid who has made a comeback


The Mandalorian Season 3 finale is finally here, and Star Wars fans better tune in before it is too late. This season has been a very interesting one, and while Boba Fett and Luke Skywalker have not returned, an iconic hero has. That is right, R5-D4 is back in the spotlight since his original debut back in Star Wars: A New Hope. This malfunctioning astromech almost took the place of R2-D2, and now he is back and redeeming himself. Hasbro has announced not one but two new R5-D4 figures are on the way for The Black Series and The Vintage Collection. The 6' version is packed with bells and whistles and even features the new N-1 Starfighter neck stretch design. The Vintage R5, on the other hand, will also have its own unique feature with a removable head. This will allow for Star Wars and The Mandalorian fans to add the heroic droid to the upcoming N-1 Starfighter Vintage Collection ship. Both figures are set for a Spring 2024 release, and pre-orders arrive today at most retailers at 1 PM EST, like here.
