wonder ’s Star Wars comedian have give us somedelightful new persona over the retiring few years , but none have been taken to quite like the intrepid archeologist Dr. Aphra ( one - sentence companion of Darth Vader himself ) andher killer droid pals , Triple Zero and BT . Now , for the first clip , they ’re all coming to action figure cast .
io9 can only bring out that Hasbro is take a 3.75″-scale “ The Vintage Collection ” three - multitude boast Aphra , 0 - 0 - 0 the protocol droid , and BT-1 the astromech to San Diego , as one of its Star Wars Comic - Con exclusives this year . The set will also be useable at FanExpo Canada later this twelvemonth , as well as in special quantities online after Comic - Con at theHasbro Toy Shop .
Introduced in Kieron Gillen and Salvador Larroca ’s Darth Vader on-going in 2016 , Aphra and her droids ( enhanced with programing that essentially turned them intokiller version of C-3PO and R2 - D2 in the best ways possible ) were recruited by Vader to help him work his fashion back up in the Emperor ’s respect after the failure of the first Death Star . But naturally , you do n’t make a mickle with Darth Vader and await to make it out alive — so Aphra finally move on the run , having her own adventures hunting down rare artifacts in thepages of her own on-going comic serial publication .
As well as the three figure , the set also features accessories in the form of Aphra ’s blaster and attachment to make comically oversized artillery pop out of BT ’s head . On top of that , the trio of figures are presented in a very special corner , harkening back to the“Special Action Figure Set ” three - packsKenner would do for the classic Star Wars toy line .
Aphra herself will also be set about a standalone handout as part of therecently - relaunched Vintage Collection , as she was the victor oflast twelvemonth ’s fan option poll , but currently there are no program to release either BT or Triple Zero as standalone figures outside of this exercise set , so if you want plastic representation of some of the best droids the Star Wars galaxy presently has to offer , you ’ll have to pony up $ 50 when the three - pack launches at San Diego Comic - Con next calendar month .
