Luke fired the shot that destroyed the Death Star, but he flew with two full squadrons, and Hasbro has spent decades filling their cockpits. Red Leader, Gold Leader, Porkins, Tiree and Pops Krail from Yavin, Dak and Zev from Hoth, Green Leader and Ten Numb from Endor: 23 named Rebel pilots have had a Hasbro figure, plus Hasbro’s generic Mon Calamari pilot. Below is each one, what they did in the films, and the most recent figure to buy.
For a few of them there’s only ever been one figure: Tiree and Pops Krail have only come in a 2012 Toys R Us five-pack, and Hobbie’s one figure is from a comic pack. Six of the pilots have also been made in the 6-inch Black Series, and they get their own section after the 3.75-inch figures.
