Figure of the Day

Star Wars Figure of the Day: Day 3,008: Vel Sartha (The Vintage Collection)

By Adam Pawlus — Thursday, March 2, 2023

Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: Vel Sartha (The Vintage Collection). It's a decent figure, but light on paint. The head is good, the articulation is fine - not great, but fine - so she isn't exactly impressive at the new suggested retail pricing. Read on!

Star Wars Figure of the Day: Day 3,007 Cassian Andor (Andor, Coat, The Vintage Collection)

By Adam Pawlus — Tuesday, February 28, 2023

Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: Cassian Andor (Andor, Coat, The Vintage Collection). It's a pretty good figure and one of very few from the much-loved but less-viewed Disney+ series. Read on!

Star Wars Figure of the Day: Day 3,005: Admiral Ackbar (Kenner, The Black Series 6-Inch)

By Adam Pawlus — Tuesday, February 21, 2023

Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: Admiral Ackbar (Kenner, The Black Series 6-Inch). It's a Pulse item that got shared, and it has less paint and costs more. That's democracy for you. I like this one better because the red plastic of the skin shows off the sculpted detail in a much better way, and also, I loved the 1983 original. Read on!

Star Wars Figure of the Day: Day 3,004: Dark Trooper (The Rescue, The Vintage Collection)

By Adam Pawlus — Thursday, February 16, 2023

Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: Dark Trooper (The Rescue, The Vintage Collection). While I find most variants on figures tiring, army builders are a bit of an exception and there's something endlessly amusing by thinking that someone said "Do you know what's orange and looks good on this figure?" in a Hasbro pitch meeting. He joins such luminaries as Darth Vader, Obi-Wan Kenobi, General Grievous, Super Battle Droids, and unarmored Darth Vader in the "on fire" club. Read on!

Star Wars Figure of the Day: Day 3,003: Luke Skywalker (Snowspeeder, Prototype Edition - Purple Head, The Retro Collection)

By Adam Pawlus — Tuesday, February 14, 2023

Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: Luke Skywalker (Snowspeeder, Prototype Edition - Purple Head, The Retro Collection). If you don't remember getting one in 1982, that's because it's based on a 2020 release that came with a board game.  It's pretty good - I particularly like the fact it comes with a new color of Kenner lightsaber! Well, some of them do - depending on which variant you get. I hear this delayed figure is alrady being marked down at select Targets, so happy hunting. Read on!

Star Wars Figure of the Day: Day 3,002: Boba Fett (Tython, Jedi Ruins, The Black Series)

By Adam Pawlus — Thursday, February 9, 2023

Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: Boba Fett (Tython, Jedi Ruins, The Black Series). It's a little like the non-exclusive figure, but with more damage paint and a different belt - I like it! Heck, I think it's one of the better figures. But is it worth the upcharge? Read on!

Star Wars Figure of the Day: Day 3,001: Axe Woves (The Black Series)

By Adam Pawlus — Tuesday, February 7, 2023

Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: Axe Woves (The Black Series). It's a good one! An existing body was used with a different head and some different color configurations to deliver unto you another Mandalorian for your armies. Read on!

Star Wars Figure of the Day: Day 3,000: Aayla Secura (The Black Series)

By Adam Pawlus — Thursday, February 2, 2023

Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: Aayla Secura (The Black Series). In the not-too-distant future, right now A.D., there as a guy named Adam not too different from you or me. And you should really just relax for Figure of the Day #3,000 - which is a milestone for what kicked off as a filler feature with diminishing returns. Thankfully, the figure is excellent and Hasbro did a great job with her. It's strange that she has pre-2020-style knees, but one of last year's finer figures is a keeper. Read on!

Star Wars Figure of the Day: Day 2,999: Grogu (The Black Series)

By Adam Pawlus — Tuesday, January 31, 2023

Well, they can't all feel like a great deal: Grogu (The Black Series). It's the accessories from the somewhat more-expensive-than-he-should-be $10 figure with a floating egg for $25. He's guaranteed to sell, the paint is fine, he's cute, but you might cringe and grit your teeth when you see him next to other $25 figures. You might cringe and grit your teeth when you see him next to $10 figures, because there's no level of "pretty good" that makes up for "this would be puny if it were a 3 3/4-inch release and it's a 6-inch release." Read on!

Star Wars Figure of the Day: Day 2,998: Darth Maul (The Black Series)

By Adam Pawlus — Thursday, January 26, 2023

Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: Darth Maul (The Black Series). This is a pretty excellent figure - the facial expression is superb, the head spikes are spiky, the outfit is good, and the articulation is great. If you like this costume, this is a very good figure of it. Read on!

Star Wars Figure of the Day: Day 2,997: Migs Mayfeld (The Black Series)

By Adam Pawlus — Tuesday, January 24, 2023

Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: Migs Mayfeld (The Black Series). He's Bill Burr, but with lots of guns and a good recreation of his on-screen, The Mandalorian season one costume. I'd say buy it, and I'm cranky and old. Read on!

Star Wars Figure of the Day: Day 2,996: Grand Inquisitor (The Black Series)

By Adam Pawlus — Thursday, January 19, 2023

Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: Grand Inquisitor (The Black Series). It's a pretty good figure of a twerp of an interpretation of the character! The head isn't too perfect, but he has a nice cape, decent armor, and good articulation. The make-up doesn't quite match the series, and that make-up doesn't quite replicate the look of the species as seen previously. But it's available, you can buy it. Read on!

Star Wars Figure of the Day: Day 2,995: B2EMO (Droid Factory / Disney)

By Adam Pawlus — Tuesday, January 17, 2023

Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: B2EMO (Droid Factory / Disney). It's basically a very good accessory for the price of a complete figure, but it's a droid, and it's a neat one that sold out online while I was sleeping. So naturally, you want one, probably. Read on!

Star Wars Figure of the Day: Day 2,994: The Mandalorian (The Rescue, The Vintage Collection)

By Adam Pawlus — Thursday, January 12, 2023

Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: The Mandalorian (The Rescue, The Vintage Collection). More of the same, but different, and at a premium price! This figure includes a lot of gear like Whistling Birds and a removable wrist rocket, and fire, and the Beskar spear. And a pistol. It's probably the most fleshed-out Mando yet, but he's in an expensive boxed set. But he's probably the best. Read on!

Star Wars Figure of the Day: Day 2,993: NED-B (The Black Series)

By Adam Pawlus — Tuesday, January 10, 2023

Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: NED-B (The Black Series). He's got a lot of painted detail, he's really big, and he's kind of expensive. But you get a hammer and a blaster! He's still $8 more than a normal figure, but is he good at any price? Read on!
