Wow, as a lifelong Star Wars collector, I'm absolutely geeking out over Hasbro's latest Black Series reveals! 😍 Just yesterday, they announced a killer Jedi: Survivor lineup, and honestly? Turgle getting his own figure might be the most unexpected yet glorious thing since Jar Jar Binks accidentally saved the galaxy. Seriously, who saw that coming? I remember playing Survivor and cracking up at Turgle's weirdly charming amphibian antics—now I can recreate those moments on my shelf! And Cal Kestis? He’s back with a vengeance, sporting that legendary mullet we all secretly loved hunting down in-game. It’s wild how a simple hairstyle became such a meme among players. Hasbro nailed it by including an extra mullet head sculpt—pure fan service gold.

But hold up—this isn’t just about Cal’s retro hair. The $44.99 set bundles him with the whole Survivor squad: Turgle (finally!), Skoova Steve (that fishing rod better be included), and BD-1, because let’s face it, no Cal adventure feels right without that adorable droid. BD-1’s little hops and map scans were my lifeline in-game, so seeing him immortalized here? Chef’s kiss. ✨ And Turgle... man, that goofy grin captures his chaotic energy perfectly. Hasbro could’ve played it safe, but nah—they went all-in on the game’s quirky side characters. Major props for that.

Then there’s Merrin. 🔥 Oh, Merrin. The Nightsister’s debut in the Black Series is long overdue—she’s a total powerhouse in Survivor, with her dark magic and tragic backstory. Her solo figure ($24.99) comes loaded with options: spear, dagger, and a magic FX accessory that’ll make your display look like a scene straight from Dathomir. I’m already brainstorming poses where she’s mid-spell, vines swirling around her—so cinematic! But wait, Hasbro doubled down by adding her to the Vintage Collection too. That $16.99 version shrinks her to 3.75 inches but keeps all the accessories, packaged in retro-style cardboard that screams 1977. It’s a nostalgia bomb for old-school collectors like me.

And speaking of Vintage, don’t sleep on the Rocket Trooper! 🚀 This $16.99 figure is pure fan service for anyone who loved force-flinging rockets back at enemies in Survivor. Remember those tense battles? One wrong dodge and—boom—you’re toast. Now you can stage epic dioramas with Cal deflecting blasts. Hasbro even nailed the troopers' bulky armor design—it’s menacingly accurate.

So, what’s the damage? Here’s a quick breakdown:

Figure	Collection	Price	Standout Features
Cal + Crew Set	Black Series	$44.99	Mullet head, BD-1, Turgle debut
Merrin Solo	Black Series	$24.99	Magic FX, spear/dagger options
Merrin Retro	Vintage	$16.99	Retro packaging, 3.75-inch scale
Rocket Trooper	Vintage	$16.99	Rocket launcher, vintage aesthetic

Pre-orders kick off tomorrow (April 18, 2025)—Cal’s set at midday EST, the rest at 3 pm. All hit shelves this summer. Honestly, I’m torn between grabbing everything or just admiring from afar... my wallet’s already weeping. But c’mon, Turgle? That’s an instant buy. What about you—will you snag the mullet or Merrin first? Either way, this lineup proves Hasbro’s still crushing it with deep-cut fan favorites. May the force (and your budget) be with us all. 🙌
