If you’re a stickler for details and accuracy, don’t assume that making your own cosplay props and costumes is cheaper than buying a replica. Often it can cost thousands of dollars to get it right, so Hasbro and Marvel are teaming up on a line of detailed role play accessories that will make accurate cosplay slightly more affordable.

At last year’s Toy Fair Hasbro made it a lot easier for Marvel fans to live out their superhero fantasies without requiring an Avengers-sized budget. The company’s detailed but affordable role-play line is expanding this year with two new accessories for Thor fans, and those who wish they could join the Guardians of the Galaxy.

Star Wars The Black Series Darth Vader Premium Electronic HelmetFans can imagine the biggest battles and missions in the Star Wars saga with helmets from The Black Series!

Imagine donning the signature helmet of Darth Vader with the Darth Vader Premium Electronic Helmet, featuring collar, mask, and hood pieces for multi-piece, adjustable fit and assembly. When the collar is put on, wearers can activate breathing sound effects.
