Over the weekend at D23, we finally got confirmation of a few of the familiar faces that will appear in Andor‘s second season–including the return of Cassian’s trusty droid ally from Rogue One, K-2SO. While we might be waiting a while for the show itself to return, this fall, you’ll be able to get in on the excitement later this year with a new addition to your toy shelf.
io9 has your exclusive first look at K-2SO’s return to Hasbro’s Star Wars action figure lines to celebrate news of his return in Andor. This winter both the 6″ Black Series and 3.75″ inch Vintage Collection will receive updated relaunches of K-2SO in Andor-inspired packaging.
For the Black Series, this isn’t the first time we’ve seen the character in figure form–K2 released as part of Hasbro’s Rogue One offerings in 2016, and was given another update in 2021 when the toymaker re-did its prior Rogue One figures with updated “photoreal” face prints. The new Andor-inspired K2 uses the same sculpt as those figures, but includes an updated paint job to better reflect his appearance in upcoming the TV show as accurately as possible. Meanwhile, the Vintage Collection release matches K-2SO’s figure from 2020, and is simply getting new Andor-themed packaging. Take a look at both figures below!

Both the Black Series and Vintage Collection K-2SO figures will launch this winter, for $25 and $17 respectively. The Black Series K2 will launch as part of a new wave of figures including several Andor characters inspired by season 2, including a new Cassian figure, as well as ISB Agent Dedra Meero, that were previously teased back at San Diego Comic-Con. Check out those figures, and more, here!
