She's new! Well, newish. The Princess Leia Organa (Hoth) is one of precious few new "classic" figures this year - and she has articulated boots! And a weird blaster. But hey, it's a new Leia - we don't get many of those. Read on!
One of the many figures you forgot existed and won't realize you don't have until 5 years from now, Disney's R5-232 (Droid Factory Line Look) can be bought right now. It has a new restraining bolt, but otherwise is just a fancy redeco of a mold you've had access to for quite some time. It's still one of the more interesting droids in this set based on Solo: A Star Wars Story. Read on!
Packed with her Swoop Bike, this Enfys Nest action figure looks great! There's no removable helmet, but the sci-fi meets local flavor costume combines armor, fur, and a cape to bring to life a Zorro-like mantle that could be handed down and return in later installments. It's a pretty good figure with a pretty nice bike. Read on!
The Stormtrooper (Mimban, AT-DT) is really cool and comes with one of the best Hasbro 3 3/4-inch scale vehicles in recent memory - it explodes! The figure doesn't, though - it's just a nice trooper that you'll wish you could easily build into your armies, and you can't. Read on!
The Han Solo (Kessel Run Millennium Falcon) may be popping up in a playset later this year - we'll need to wait and see how many changes they make - but you can get get it with a rather small Falcon right now! The figure isn't bad - it's as Kenner-y as anything we've had in recent years. Read on!
This Chewbacca (Vandor-1 Playset) is like the other one, but with goggles. I think the growls are slightly different, but that may not be a selling point - the playset is, though. Read on!
The Solo 4-pack is pretty hit and miss with two fairly interesting robots and two that do not impress. The R2-S8 (Droid Factory Line Look) is my favorite in the set - not only is it black and white and red all over, but there's weird and colorful writing on the dome. It's good! You should get this one. Read on!
Target's exclusive Gamorrean Guard (The Black Series 6-Inch) has an opening mouth - and I'm having a lot of fun with that. Use any food you may have to engage your toy and also be mad that you can't find one, because it's awesome, and I'd love to get 1 or 2 more of these. Read on!
Fresh from SDCC, it's Doctor Aphra! This figure will be sold on the traditional 6x9 cardback later this year, but if you got her and her droid pals in the 3-pack you know she's got a good range of movement and joints that actually move and work well. Hasbro did a great job with the newest Fan's Choice figure. Read on!
Fresh from Comic-Con, it's 0-0-0 (Triple Zero)! This is a black C-3PO repaint - this is the 2010 Vintage mold. Want to see more? Read on!
It's Woody! The Tobias Beckett (The Black Series 6-Inch) turned out pretty well, has the requisite amount of articulation, with perfectly nice painting. The facial hair could be a smidgen better, but it's still consistent with the quality this line has given us as of late. Read on!
We were shown this on Twitter, and well, why not just show it to you? Here's this year's Halloween Disney parks droid R4-B0018. Thanks to @Jesse_James77 on Twitter for sharing in a tweet.
Because of the candy theme for this year’s Halloween droid at Disney, I’m predicting red white striped candy cane holiday droid! You heard it here first whenever it happens. It will happen.
Check out the Rebel Trooper (The Black Series 6-Inch) figure! He has a helmet, a blaster, and the Death Star plans from Rogue One. That's how you cross generations. The articulation is exceptional, so of course it's going to be hard to troop-build this one. Read on!
