StarWars.com has released two images of the first action figure in a new line of 3.75″ action figures from Hasbro.  The new line of figures is branded as the Star Wars Rebels Saga Legends and will feature action figures with five points of articulation (joints that move). According to the announcement the action figures and accessories in the line will have the same styling as what we will see on the show.

Official Announcement:

The Inquisitor, the Empire’s Jedi hunter and a major new villain in the highly anticipated Star Wars Rebels animated series, was unveiled by Lucasfilm at this year’s New York Comic Con. Today, StarWars.com is excited to present the official reveal for the character’s first ever 3.75-inch action figure from Hasbro.

The figure — the first to be seen from the upcoming Star Wars Rebels Saga Legends line — features five points of articulation, show-accurate accessories, and is sculpted in the art style of the series. Look for the Inquisitor and the Star Wars Rebels Saga Legends line to hit store shelves in fall 2014, and stay tuned for more Star Wars Rebels toy news from Hasbro at international Toy Fairs and here at StarWars.com.

A comparison between the Inquisitor action figure, concept art and the traditional Imperial officer’s uniform.

From the belt down the Inquisitor action figure seems to be wearing nearly standard Imperial issue uniform except for the armor hip plates.

The accessory still strikes me as fine for stills but in-universe I have a hard time seeing how a dual-bladed lightsaber works effectively in battle with a one-handed grip.
