We have some great updates on the new characters from Star Wars: The Force Awakens. According to a leaked photo of new action figure toys based on the movie's stars, we have a pretty great look at John Boyega and Daisy Ridley's characters, as well as Chewbacca and the ball-droid, B-88. On top of these characters that we already knew about, a new one is featured, wearing an updated Stormtrooper mask, but an outdated uniform. The height of this character also makes us reconsider some casting rumors about Gwendoline Christie of Game of Thrones, who is speculated to portray Captain Phasma! (SPOILERS to follow)

You can check out some of the leaked toy images (via Slash Film and Making Star Wars) over at this Chinese Star Wars website!
After checking out this photo, what do you think of these action figures - and more importantly, who do you think that tall Stormtrooper is?
We previously reported that Disney was after the trademark on "Captain Phasma," making most of us think that this is a new character. Thinking back to rumors about Christie portraying an Imperial Officer, she is at the top of the rumor mill for this role.
There's also some speculation that this action figure could be Kylo Ren, the Sith with the awesome lightsaber from the teaser trailer. We have no idea what this character looks like from the front, so perhaps we just got a look with this leaked photo. What do you think of this possibility?
We recently reported on the rumor that Andy Serkis could be playing this role, but we have no confirmation on this. Other rumors point to Adam Driver as Kylo Ren, too. Basically, we keep seeing cool spoilers that don't give too much away in the long run!
