The nostalgia is strong with Hasbro’s latest Star Wars: Retro Collection action figures

February 24, 2020 by Gary Collinson

After launching The Retro Collection last year, Hasbro has now unveiled the second wave of figures in the Star Wars line, which recreate iconic Kenner figures from Star Wars: Episode V – The Empire Strikes Back and features Boba Fett, Han Solo (Hoth), Lando Calrissian, Luke Skywalker (Bespin), Princess Leia (Hoth) and Yoda, along with the Hoth Ice Planet Adventure game featuring a newly-designed and exclusive Luke Skywalker (Snowspeeder) figure. Take a look at the official promotional images here…

Kids and collectors alike can imagine the biggest battles and missions in the STAR WARS saga with figures from the STAR WARS RETRO COLLECTION! With exquisite features and decoration, this series embodies the quality and realism that STAR WARS devotees love. The STAR WARS RETRO COLLECTION includes figures and games from the 40-plus-year legacy of the STAR WARS Galaxy. These 3.75-inch scale STAR WARS RETRO COLLECTION figures are detailed to look like the characters from STAR WARS: THE EMPIRE STRIKES BACK, featuring multiple points of articulation. Characters in this assortment include LUKE SKYWALKER (BESPIN), HAN SOLO (HOTH), PRINCESS LEIA ORGANA (HOTH), YODA, BOBA FETT, and LANDO CALRISSIAN.

Bring back memories with this retro edition of the HOTH ICE PLANET ADVENTURE board game. The game is based on the original board game from Kenner released in 1980 and features artwork inspired events from the second STAR WARS movie, THE EMPIRE STRIKES BACK. This edition of the board game includes an exclusive SNOWSPEEDER action figure. Fans can re-live STAR WARS moments from THE EMPIRE STIKES BACK as they imagine traveling around the dangerous ICE PLANET HOTH and become a JEDI KNIGHT. Using wits and the Force, players are challenged to battle the four fearsome Enemies they find along the way throughout their adventures on ICE PLANET HOTH. Who can defeat the most evil villain the EMPIRE can send against you? Gather the Force to fight and defeat DARTH VADER for the win.

Look for the new Star Wars: Retro Collection figures on shelves this Spring.
