‘Star Wars’ toys reveal another new character in ‘The Force Awakens’

Disney unleashed its new line of “Star Wars” toys Friday.

As soon as retailers opened at midnight September 4, action figures were the fastest toys to fly off shelves. This was certainly the case for us at a Target in Bridgewater, NJ, and appears to have been the case for many others.

Because many figures disappeared quickly it wasn’t immediately apparent that there were some never-before-seen characters from the new “Star Wars” movie, “The Force Awakens,” among them.

We’ve shown off the mysterious Constable Zuvio, but there’s another mysterious character who began popping up on social media Friday. 

Now this dude was a real surprise for me. We haven't seen anything about him yet... Well I haven't. But with his cool looking suit and helmet, couldn't resist picking this up. Looks like Deadpool mixed with the villain from Hellboy! And he was the only one left among the sea of Finns and Reys. That's pretty much a good sign to get it. Haha! Can't wait to see what this guy looks like on screen! #GuavianEnforcer #starwars #ForceFridayPH #forcefriday #theforceawakens

According to the packaging, he’s a Gauvian enforcer.

What’s that?

Here’s what the back of the box says:

“The security soldiers of the Gavin Gang wear high impact armor that makes them stand out among other deadly criminals.”

For those who wanted to see the back! :) #GuavianEnforcer #ForceFridayPH #forcefriday #starwars #theforceawakens

There's not much to go off of there, but he doesn’t look like anyone we’d want to cross paths with.

Also, does the wording “other deadly criminals” suggest that this character is also a deadly criminal?

If so, it looks like our heroes may have bigger fish to fry other than Kylo Ren.

Some have noted the Gauvian enforcer resembles Marvel character Deadpool who is getting his own movie over at Fox in 2016.

“Star Wars: The Force Awakens” is in theaters December 18, 2015.
