Hot Toys’ Jedi Training Rey Has a Light-up Lightsaber and Porgs!

We’ve come to expect the best quality from Hot Toys, and their latest offerings are always impressive. But the new Jedi Training Rey from Star Wars: The Last Jedi may have reached a new pinnacle. This 1:6 scale figure not only features a terrific likeness of Daisy Ridley‘s popular heroine, it also includes a light-up lightsaber that looks amazing in these newly released pictures.

Perhaps we should specify that Rey’s LED light-up lightsaber also comes with an interchangeable lightsaber blade that makes it appear that it’s in motion. The following pic is not a special effect. This is what it really looks like!

This is also our best glimpse yet at the new costume that Rey will wear during The Last Jedi, and it seems like a nice upgrade from the outfit she wore in The Force Awakens. But just because Rey is strong in the Force, it doesn’t mean that she’s leaving behind her quarterstaff or her blaster. Both weapons will be included with Rey’s figure, and that’s not all!

That’s right, Rey’s bringing the Porgs! And as far as we can tell, these might be the first 1:6 Porgs to get an official release from Hot Toys. But probably not the last time, if history is any indication. You can find more pictures of the Jedi Training Rey in the gallery below.

The Jedi Training Rey is currently available for pre-order at Sideshow Collectibles, but it won’t be shipping until sometime between July and September 2018. The price is $228, and it absolutely looks like its worth it.
