Reva (Third Sister) - TBS [P4] - Six Inch Figures (OWK03)

Obi-Wan Kenobi is set years after the dramatic events of Star Wars: Revenge Of The Sith where Kenobi faced the corruption of his friend and Jedi apprentice, Anakin Skywalker tuned Sith Lord Darth Vader.

Hasbro was stealthy when working on characters from the Obi-Wan Kenobi Disney+ series behind the scenes for their action figure lines. In between, they announced new products, not relaying what they were working on in secret. Not only did they hide their secrets well, but they also managed to have the product ready for the conclusion of the first series for collectors to purchase. The selection is small, but the action figures are gorgeous. Reva (Third Sister) was one of four characters from Obi-Wan Kenobi ready to go as they appear in a case together that mainly supports the new streaming series. The Reva (Third Sister) action figure is quite an accomplishment. Whether you like the character or not is irrelevant. The action figure making here is delightful, and we grow more impressed with how well they capture human likenesses in the 6-inch action figure scale. Reva (Third Sister) is a testament to Hasbro's commitment to making screen-accurate action figures. And the incorporation of soft goods with the molded figure works incredibly well here. Because of them, you can pose the figure in countless configurations.

Reva (Third Sister) is an all-new action figure. Hasbro worked carefully to capture the on-screen actress’ athletic proportions and likeness in the portrait. We think the action figure is a dead ringer for the actress. It looks as if Hasbro added additional makeup to the face to help shape and contour the features, but the resemblance to Moses Ingram is impressive. There is considerable detail in the character’s hairstyle. You can see the tiniest braids and the curliness of the hair. Hasbro does incredible work with capturing small and insignificant details, yet this attention helps shape its look. Reva (Third Sister) comes with a magnificent articulation system. You can position the action figure in various ways, and with the various lightsaber accessories included, you have multiple options for posing in action-oriented ways. Speaking of accessories, Hasbro included the double-bladed hilt with two removable red blades. And then Hasbro included two separate lightsabers for double-dueling and double-wielding as you desire. The mostly black costume and the bright red lightsaber blades create a beautiful contrast.

Suppose you judge the success of The Black Series Reva (Third Sister Lightsaber failed HasLab project, and the comments about the character in episode reviews, it doesn’t appear that the entire Star Wars community has grasped onto this character. There are a lot of mixed emotions when Star Wars fans and collectors talk about Reva (Third Sister) as both a character and action figure. The merchandising of this character will be interesting to watch over time. Will Disney Star Wars develop her into a deeply engaging personality, or is the character temporal and them soon forgettable? But whatever comes to pass, it’s excellent that Hasbro works so hard to create stunning action figure likenesses of the new characters in the current Star Wars entertainment. And let’s not forget about how quickly Hasbro got these new characters into the action figure line. Getting out new toys of these characters for is a massive part of the marketing strategy. Hasbro impressed us with this collection of new characters in The Black Series 6-inch lineup and The Vintage Collection. Hopefully, the character has staying power and becomes a meaningful fixture in the Star Wars universe.
