General Grievous was on toy shelves four months before Revenge of the Sith was in cinemas: in January 2005 Hasbro released both a Clone Wars cartoon Grievous and a Sneak Preview figure for the film. Hasbro has made 28 General Grievous action figures up to 2024, and every one is below with its year and original US price.
Only Hasbro figures are counted. When the same Grievous turned up again on a new card or in a multipack, that’s a note under the original, not a new row. You won’t find Hot Toys, LEGO, die-cast or statues here, or the young children’s lines such as Galaxy of Adventures and Mission Fleet. My every Boba Fett action figure page works the same way.

How many General Grievous action figures are there?
28 Hasbro releases from 2005 to 2024. Only three are 6-inch Black Series figures and one is a 12-inch figure. The other 24 are 3.75-inch, but just one of those is in The Vintage Collection (VC17, 2010) and one in the Retro Collection. Store exclusives and multipacks with a new or repainted Grievous are included.
