Star Wars Black Series Rebels

The Star Wars Black Series Rebels sub-line is one of the most distinctive collections in the Galaxy Collection era — nine figures covering the full Ghost crew from the animated series, all released as Fan Channel exclusives in 2020 with a 2023 repack and a 2026 addition bringing the Seventh Sister Inquisitor to the line. The Fan Channel exclusive nature of the original 2020 wave means every figure in the core crew has only been available through specialty hobby and collectibles retailers — Entertainment Earth, GameStop, and similar — rather than standard mass retail, making the Rebels sub-line one of the more challenging sets to complete without secondary market sourcing.

For collectors of the animated series, the Rebels sub-line represents the complete Ghost crew in a single coordinated 2020 release — a rare achievement for the Black Series given how rarely complete teams arrive simultaneously. The Ghost crew’s five members plus their droid Chopper, Ahsoka Tano (Rebels) in her animated Rebels costume, and Kanan Jarrus as the team’s Jedi were all released within the same year, enabling a complete crew display from day one.

The Ghost Crew — Complete in a Single Year

Garazeb “Zeb” Orrelios (Deluxe) at REB 01 is the standout technical achievement of the sub-line — the Lasat warrior’s non-human physique required the Deluxe format to accommodate his distinctive proportions and his Bo-rifle accessory. Zeb in Deluxe format is one of the most imposing alien figures in the Black Series animated range and a figure the 6-inch format delivers better than smaller scales. Chopper at REB 02 is the irascible astromech droid, whose compact design translates well to the format. Ezra Bridger at REB 03 with lightsaber and blaster pistol covers the series’ primary Jedi protagonist in his Rebels-era look. Kanan Jarrus at REB 04 gives the Ghost’s Jedi mentor his full animated treatment with lightsaber and holstered blaster.

Hera Syndulla at REB 05 is the Twi’lek pilot and Ghost crew commander — a character whose live-action appearance in the Ahsoka sub-line is distinct from this animated version. Sabine Wren at REB 06 with dual blasters is the Mandalorian artist and demolitions expert — a fan-favourite character whose animated design with its colourful painted armour translates strikingly to 6-inch scale. Ahsoka Tano (Rebels) at REB 07 in her white-clad Rebels season two appearance with twin white lightsabers is the most visually mature Ahsoka design in the Black Series — distinct from both the Clone Wars sub-line animated versions and the live-action appearances in the Ahsoka sub-line.

The Inquisitors — Rebels’ Villains

Seventh Sister Inquisitor at REB 09 (2026) adds the Mirialan Inquisitor who pursues the Ghost crew through season two of the series — a striking character design with a double-bladed spinning lightsaber. The Inquisitor presence in the Rebels sub-line connects to the broader Inquisitors programme across the Obi-Wan Kenobi sub-line and Gaming Greats Fallen Order trooper releases.

Rebels and the Wider Disney+ Continuity

Several Rebels characters have multiple Black Series releases across different sub-lines, reflecting their continuing role across the Disney+ era. Hera Syndulla appears in both this sub-line and the Ahsoka sub-line in her live-action configuration. Sabine Wren appears in the Rebels sub-line and the Ahsoka sub-line. Ezra Bridger appears here and in both the Ahsoka sub-line (two versions). This means Rebels collectors who follow the characters through to Ahsoka have additional purchasing decisions — the animated and live-action versions are separate figures with different face printing and costume designs.

Kanan Jarrus had an earlier Red Line release (#19, 2016) before the dedicated Rebels sub-line figure. Grand Admiral Thrawn appeared in both the Red Line (#47, 2017, Walgreens exclusive) and the Ahsoka sub-line — the Rebels sub-line does not have a dedicated Thrawn figure, making the Walgreens Red Line release or the Ahsoka sub-line version the primary options for Rebels display use.

Availability — The Fan Channel Challenge

The original 2020 Ghost crew wave was entirely Fan Channel exclusive — meaning GameStop, Entertainment Earth, and similar specialty retailers were the only sources at launch. These figures were not available at Target, Walmart, or Amazon in standard retail runs. The Chopper (C1-10P) Repack at REB 08 in 2023 brought Chopper to standard mainline retail, making him the only Ghost crew member available without Fan Channel sourcing. The rest of the Ghost crew requires either Fan Channel sourcing or secondary market purchasing — they are available on the secondary market but often at premiums above original retail price.

Rebels Characters Across the Black Series

Star Wars Rebels characters have appeared in multiple sub-lines across the Black Series history. Before the dedicated Rebels sub-line launched in 2020, several Ghost crew members received Red Line releases: Kanan Jarrus at #19 (2016), Ahsoka Tano at #20 (2016), Sabine Wren at #33 (2016), Hera Syndulla at #42 (2017), Chopper at #84 (2019), and Ezra Bridger at #86 (2019). These pre-Photo Real releases are superseded by the Fan Channel sub-line figures for display purposes but remain collectible as Red Line era pieces.

The Rebels sub-line has since been supplemented by further releases elsewhere. Grand Admiral Thrawn’s Rebels appearance is covered by the Walgreens-exclusive Red Line #47 release and the Ahsoka sub-line’s updated Thrawn figure. Several Ghost crew members — Hera, Sabine, Ezra — have received live-action appearances in the Ahsoka series and subsequent Black Series figures in that sub-line with Photo Real face printing replacing the animated-style approach of the Rebels sub-line figures.

Building a Rebels Display

A complete Ghost crew display from the Rebels sub-line requires sourcing Fan Channel exclusives for six of the seven core crew figures. The display itself — Ghost crew assembled with Zeb at the back given his Deluxe height, Chopper at the front, Ahsoka (Rebels) on one flank, and the main four crew members together — is one of the most visually cohesive group displays in the animated Black Series range. Adding the 2026 Seventh Sister Inquisitor provides the season two antagonist to the Ghost crew display. Grand Admiral Thrawn from the Red Line or Ahsoka sub-line completes the primary villain presence for a Rebels-era display.

Secondary Market

Fan Channel exclusive figures typically trade above retail on secondary markets given the narrower initial distribution. The Zeb Orrelios (Deluxe) commands the highest premium given his Deluxe pricing and Lasat character appeal. Ahsoka Tano (Rebels) is the most frequently sought figure given Ahsoka’s sustained collector popularity. The standard crew figures (Hera, Sabine, Ezra, Kanan) are available on secondary markets at moderate premiums. The 2023 Chopper repack at mainline retail significantly reduced the secondary market price for Chopper specifically.
