Ready for a Ginormous Jyn Erso or Supersized Stormtrooper? Here Are the 'Rogue One' Big-Figs Coming Soon (Exclusive)
As the rollout of Rogue One: A Star Wars Story toys began early Wednesday, we got plenty of standard 3.75-inch Hasbro action figures. There were a few larger, 6- and 12-inch species from Hasbro and the Disney Store. And, of course, dozens of Lego minifigures have popped up. But when it comes to supersizing Star Wars, no one does it quite like Jakks Pacific. The toymaker has a popular line of the aptly named Big-Figs, and Yahoo Movies has your first look at the full Rogue One set.

The Big-Figs also provide a good indication of what the Star Wars licensees expect to be the biggest-selling characters. For Rogue One, there really seems to be an emphasis on Felicity Jones’s hero, Jyn Erso, the wise-cracking ex-Imperial security droid K-2SO, and the sleek-looking but lethal-sounding Death Troopers.
Out of the gate on Sept. 30, when all the new merch goes on sale, there will be two versions of Big-Figs, an 18-/20-inch scale assortment that will include Jyn Erso and K-2SO representing for the Rebellion, and a Death Trooper and Stormtrooper in the Empire’s corner. They will cost $19.99 each.

For those who like things even larger, there’s a 31-inch series that will kick off with K-2SO, Death Trooper, and Stormtrooper. These guys are priced at $34.99.

Each Big-Fig has seven points of articulation and comes equipped with the requisite accessories, ranging from capes to blasters.
Rogue One arrives in theaters Dec. 16, but be warned: you might need to pay separate admission for your Big-Fig.
