Star Wars The Acolytes collectables
Star Wars fans have only seen a brief glimpse of The Acolyte in a teaser trailer from Disney+ and Hasbro has wasted no time by announcing a selection of different action figures based on those characters seen in the upcoming live action series.
What is The Acolyte in Star Wars?
The Acolyte is the latest Star Wars TV show, due to debut on Disney+ on June 4th, 2024. Set during the twilight of the peaceful High Republic era, it follows a veteran Jedi Master and their estranged former Padawan as they investigate a wave of dark side crimes. As they delve deeper into the mystery, they'll encounter sinister forces that threaten the Republic and the Jedi Order itself. And, with the release of its teaser trailer and in true Disney style, it sees the release of a whole new collections of Star Wars figures and merchandise; including a Black Series and an addition to the Star Wars: The Vintage Collection.
