Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: The Mythrol (The Vintage Collection). It's a 2021 figure, and quite shiny - like an actual fish. Given the size, it looks great - even in a dark room! Read on!
Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: Crosshair (Imperial, The Black Series). It's a good figure but not an authentic figure - the colors and new helmet are great, but the armor is just a recolor of the Republic version. It's not really accurate to the show, so a version 2.0 is pretty much essential right out of the gate. Regardless, it does look cool in and of itself and is arguably worth a buy at regular price.

Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: Jyn Erso (The Black Series). This is the 2021 release today. The old 2016 figure is new and improved with an impressive photoreal face, and this does indeed mean your old ones are old and inferior. This is probably one of the most dramatic improvements I've seen since Hasbro started repainting figures with the new printing, and in person it's stunning how much better she looks. Read on!
Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: Hevy Battle Droid (The Vintage Collection). It's shiny and red, and the paint is really good. But it's a Battle Droid, so maybe you skipped it - and you shouldn't have. Read on!
It's golden, but not really a golden addition to any collection. Stormtrooper (Skywalker Saga, Gold). It's a 2018 figure, minus an accessory, and painted gold for 2019. And in my case, the neck snapped right out of the box. Read on!
As 2020 comes to an end for an alleged second time, let's look at this 2019 Darth Vader (Skywalker Saga, Gold). It's and older figure, but after two years I can safely say that having just opened one, the gold paint sticks to itself and I don't like that. Read on!
Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: The Emperor (The Vintage Collection). It's new! But it's a 2005 figure with a new hood, new robe, and some new accessories - and it's still a 2005 figure, and the PulseCon variant's head is a better one. Read on!
Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: AT-ST Driver (The Vintage Collection). Now with photoreal deco on what is basically Richard Marquand! He stands, he sits, and he fits in your AT-ST - what more can you ask for? Read on!
Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: Obi-Wan Kenobi (The Black Series). It's a PulseCon reissue with the photoreal paint job, and it's a pretty solid improvement. Read on!
Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: R5-D33R (Droid Factory). It's new for 2021, and not a bad design. Read on!
Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: Ponda Baba (The Black Series). It's a 2019 Luke body with a new head, new hands, and new colors. Is it enough? It's not bad. Read on!
Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: Dr. Evazan (The Black Series). This PulseCon debut is also showing up in retail stores as an individual figure - and it's a new head and torso with Jedi Luke arms and D.J. legs. Read on!
Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: Clone Pilot Hawk (The Black Series). It's a Target exclusive that came and went quickly, retooling the original Clone mold with new heads and new paint. Read on!
Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: Wrecker (The Black Series). It's a recent release, and this member of The Bad Batch has one of the most expressive faces in Hasbro's entire action figure line. Read on!
Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: Q9-0 (Zero, The Black Series) (The Black Series). It's a neat robot, with great detail and you've got a ghost of a chance of finding the wave in stores. The grey is a little more "plastic" than "metal" in appearance, but do remember, it is a plastic figure. The painted dirt and wires are a nice touch. Read on!
