The Galaxy’s Gift: Hasbro’s Gaming Greats Dagan Gera and BX Droid Star Wars Figures

It’s Gift the Galaxy Week 1, and Hasbro has unveiled some exciting new additions for Star Wars collectors. As the first releases for this year’s gifting season, they’ve taken inspiration from the Jedi: Survivor video game, focusing on two standout characters: Dagan Gera and the highly adaptable BX Droid (Hybrid). Hasbro’s choice to spotlight these fan favourites from a gaming franchise is a clever nod to the intersection of Star Wars lore and interactive storytelling. Let’s dive into what makes these figures a must-have for fans.

Meet the Figures: Dagan Gera and the BX Droid

The Dagan Gera and BX Droid figures are presented as part of the Black Series Gaming Greats collection, which brings meticulously detailed characters to collectors. The gaming figures often provide a unique chance to own Star Wars characters with intricate designs that pull directly from the rich graphics and unique aesthetics of the game.

Dagan Gera Black Series Gaming Greats collection

Known as the moody Jedi Knight, Dagan Gera offers a darker, edgier figure that breaks from the typical hero trope. His sculpt reflects the character’s complex nature—Hasbro captures his brooding personality and layered tunic design, ensuring Dagan stands apart on the shelf. His poseability and detailed accessories give fans the ability to showcase him mid-action, a nice touch for anyone who’s a fan of capturing dynamic displays.

BX Droid (Hybrid) Black Series Gaming Greats collection

For a battle-hardened droid, the BX Droid packs a lot of personality and intrigue. Styled as a sleek, agile combat machine, this Hybrid variant brings some unique aesthetic changes compared to previous releases. With multiple points of articulation, the BX Droid figure is as ready for combat poses as it is for unique displays. In photos, the figure’s blend of metallic and matte finishes captures the futuristic military feel that makes the BX series such an iconic piece in Star Wars droid design.

A Nod to the Jedi: Survivor Video Game Legacy

These figures come straight from the storyline of Star Wars: Jedi Survivor, the highly-praised sequel to Jedi: Fallen Order. Released to rave reviews, Jedi Survivor dives deeper into Cal Kestis’ battle against the Empire, introducing memorable foes and allies like Dagan Gera. Set five years after the original game, the storyline allows players to navigate rich environments and encounter powerful enemies, including the versatile BX Droids, making the figures from Hasbro’s Gift the Galaxy Week not only timely but also a wonderful homage to the game.

Why These Figures Should Make Your List

If you’re already a fan of the Black Series and Hasbro’s Gaming Greats, these new figures won’t disappoint. Dagan Gera, in particular, is a fresh character for collectors who love their Jedi figures a little darker in tone. The BX Droid offers a fantastic new variant that’s a must for fans of droids and troop-builders alike. To make the most of Gift the Galaxy Week, these two figures are a strong start that promises even more intriguing releases to come.
