Hasbro Unveils New Figures of 'The Acolyte's Secret Character

The Big Picture With the first two episodes of the new Star Wars series, The Acolyte, now available on Disney+, Hasbro has unveiled the first figure of Amandla Stenberg's Osha Aniseya. If you're a fan of old-school action figures, Hasbro has you covered, too, with a set of 1977-style retro Acolyte figures. Both sets were revealed by Slashfilm.com.

The Black Series Osha Aniseya figure will be fully articulated and feature intricate, screen-accurate sculpting and paint detail. She will also come with a number of accessories, including a blaster, a shoulder bag, and her pocket-sized droid buddy Pip - who can indeed fit snugly into the figure's pocket. The Retro Collection set will include six figures sculpted and painted to resemble Kenner's original 1970s Star Wars figures.

Close What Is 'The Acolyte' About? Set a century before The Phantom Menace, The Acolyte takes place in the High Republic time period, long before the rise of the Empire, where the galaxy is at peace and the Jedi are a potent force for good. However, something dark is brewing, as a masked assassin murders the Jedi Indara in the show's opening minutes. The evidence all seems to point to ex-Jedi Padawan Osha , who has left the order to become a starship mechanic, but she has an alibi.

Created by Russian Doll's Leslye Headland, The Acolyte is Disney+'s first live-action Star Wars series of the year, and has been well-received; it is Disney+'s most-watched series premiere of the year. Critics are reacting well to it, including Collider's Maggie Lovitt, who called it "a compelling murder mystery" that "flips Star Wars storytelling on its head." New episodes will stream on Disney+ at 9 p.m. EST every Tuesday until July 16.
