From a semi-recent Battle Pack, Colonel Dyer is, for all intents and purposes, our best update of the Kenner Imperial Officer figure. Black uniform, gloves, and a blaster... he's our guy!  So is the set worth your while? (Yes.) Read on!

New carded photos of the upcoming Grand Moff Tarkin, Galen Marek, Shae Vizla, and Nikto have been posted by Sandtroopers.com! That Kenner style Tarkin Star Wars card is simply sublime!

This Battle Droid is the first release of the new 2012 Movie Heroes line-- the second is red.  So this is just different to make you mad, particularly because it's from a cheap 2-pack mold at $9.  So should you get it? No, but read on!

This Jedi Padawan is a sort of nameless extra from a recent Star Tours set.  Not specifically from the movies or ride, he looks like he's based on an actual person but nobody really knows who it is.  Do you?  I don't.  Anyway, read on!

Love orange?  Have another Clone Trooper.  This one came in a Battle Pack and is slightly different from other almost identical figures.  Read on!

The MH16 Obi-Wan Kenobi comes with a cool Light-Up Lightsaber feature and an all new sculpt.There are two schools of thought when it comes to the latest wave of Movie Heroes. The ultra detailed, super articulated crowd have been at the forefront in recent years, especially with the premium stylings  of The Vintage Collection. But a more traditional approach has emerged with Movie Heroes where the articulation is limited and action features have returned to attract a younger audience. And that's not necessarily a bad thing.

As one of the notorious pegwarmers of 1999 (and beyond), it was surprising that Hasbro gave Ric Olie another go. The first one was pretty good, but is this one better?  Read on!

The Spacetrooper was one of the first Expanded Universe put out by Kenner in the final days of that brand in 1998, and it was a good figure. This one is also good, but is it good enough to re-buy? Read on!

This Darth Maul is one of the new, different-sorta-but-not-too-different Movie Heroes from this year.  It's based on a 2002 figure, minus magnets and some red paint.  Is it worth it?  Read on!

From the just-released DVD sets-- formerly Walmart exclusives, but now closeout fodder-- it's Clone Trooper Gearshift!  Well, it's "Clone Trooper" on the box, at least. He has a new helmet with lamps!  Is it cool?  I think so. Read on to learn more!

Hasbro was on a roll a few years ago, if you loved astromech droids it couldn't be better.  R4-H5 was one of many awesome new robots released in 2008, and he's not too expensive.  Is it time to buy?  Read on!
