In the last few years, Hasbro’s offered more Mandalorian helmets in its Star Wars Black Series roleplay line than you can shake a pair of smithing tongs at—but now, at long last, one of the coolest Mando helmets to actually appear on The Mandalorian is joining the armory.

To celebrate today’s Pulse Con event, io9 has your first exclusive look at the latest arrival in the Black Series line of premium electronic helmets: the horned headgear of Emily Swallow’s mysterious Armorer, former leader of Din Djarin’s isolated covert, and now seeming co-ruler of the returned Mandalore alongside Bo-Katan Kryze by the end of the show’s third season. Now you too can offer sage wisdom and occasionally pretend to bang some beskar while wearing this helmet.

San Diego Comic Con has already come and gone, and now we are off to the next one with D23. This new Disney event will be filled with new reveals and updates for Marvel Comics, Disney, Pixar, and, of course, Star Wars. To make things better, there will be plenty of exclusives arriving for the convention that will be exclusive to D23 and then released online next week. One of these exclusives will take Star Wars back to The Clone Wars with a new Legacy Lightsaber Set that features three iconic Jedi. Three beautifully crafted hilts inspired by iconic characters Anakin Skywalker, Obi-Wan Kenobi, and Ahsoka Tano are here and faithfully brought to life.

This limited edition set is featured in a specially crafted wooden box with an etched design on the outside. Limited to only 3000 pieces, each hilt is intricately designed to capture the unique details as seen in the Star Wars films and beloved animated series. Sadly, we will most likely never see these characters on screen together again, so now Star Wars fans can bring their Legacy Lightsabers home in one set. The Disney Parks blade is sold separately, and Star Wars fans can find this set at D23 this weekend and then on shopDisney on August 12.

Good news for fans of Star Wars latest series, The Acolyte, looking to expand their collections in the near future: Hasbro is releasing a new Black Series helmet featuring the series' mysterious baddie they're calling The Stranger — though we all know who he really is by now — and Collider is excited to share exclusive new images of the electronic helmet with you today. The bad news? Looks like his name isn't actually Darth Teefs.

...

According to Hasbro, the helmet features a highly detailed sculpt and padding, and should fit most head sizes, for anyone inclined to put it on and silently drop from the trees to freak out their friends. Interior lights also illuminate when the helmet is turned upside down, and for those who want to display the helmet rather than wear it, it also comes equipped with a one-hour "collector display" mode. The helmet retails for approximately $99.99 and goes up for pre-order on June 27, shipping out Fall 2025.
