Underground Toys is the latest manufacturer to announce an exclusive for Star Wars Celebration. Check out the press release for the Electronic Max Rebo.

At the push of a button, the Max Rebo plush will play extracts from Lapti Nek; as featured in the Jabba’s palace scene from the original Return of the Jedi movie.

Max Rebo is the latest addition to the expanding fan favorite range which includes the Wampa, Tauntaun and Jabba the Hutt, amongst others. These specialty characters sit alongside the more familiar core line up of Yoda, Chewbacca, Darth Vader and R2-D2.

To celebrate the blue elephantine keyboardist joining the range, Underground Toys have launched a special edition for Star Wars Celebration 2015. The special edition, measuring in at 6 inches, will have ‘Star Wars Celebration, Anaheim 2015’ embroidered on the products’ base.

Thanks to Coffee with Kenobi for the heads up.

Forum member Darth Vlad’s Clone has shared nearly a dozen pics for your viewing pleasure of the new 6″ Black Series Han Solo in Stormtrooper gear – all side by side with the standard Stormtrooper.  Check out the pics, and let’s hear your thoughts in the forums!

Personal Note:  I’ll always be a 3.75″ scale collector, and want Hasbro to mostly focus on that line, but the more OT figures they make in this scale, the more I’m caving in and liking them.
