Star Wars Figure of the Day: Day 2,066: Boba Fett (Saga Legends 2013)

By Adam Pawlus — Monday, December 23, 2013

From that lovely Lava Line Look, it's a new Boba Fett from Saga Legends!  It's not bad.  Some of you won't like it because it's under-articulated, but it's not like you can buy it at a store near you anyway.  Is it worth it?  I think so.  Read on!

By Adam Pawlus — Friday, December 20, 2013

Reader Brad wrote in to inform us that his local Five Below store - unknown and unavailable to many of us in these United States - continues to get The Vintage Collection figures we all crave like Darth Malgus for five dollars... or below.  Thanks for writing in, Brad, and curse all of you who have access to this fantastic sounding store!

By Adam Pawlus — Tuesday, December 17, 2013

Amazon has been marking down - and up - and down - a lot of toys over the last few days.   Right now, the Vintage Collection Slave I at $35 and Vintage Collection TIE Interceptor at $25 are about as low as we've ever seen them.  Droid Factory figures are back up to $35 - cheaper, but not as low as the $15 last week.

Amazon Droid Factory Figures: Now 60% Off, Greedo now $11.99

By Adam Pawlus — Friday, December 6, 2013

In what I can only assume is to make early adopters who paid $59.99 not a month and change ago feel as foolish as possible, Amazon cut the price on the  Star Wars Legacy Collection Droid Factory Action Figure 6-Pack to a mind-blowing-but-why-stop-now $23.99.  Black Series figures ($11.99 Greedo) and other items also received deep cuts, and since we're going to go ahead and say this qualifies as news, you'll see more of them after the jump.

Ad: Amazon Star Wars Black Series 6-Inch Sandtroopers for $10.12

By Adam Pawlus — Wednesday, December 4, 2013

Ad: While you probably don't need more Black Series 6-Inch Sandtrooper Action FIgures, Amazon has them for $11.24 $10.12 - the best price I've seen yet.  The armor is largely removable and I assume the dirt comes off, so customizers/troop builders/clearance finders - this is the time to order some Sandtroopers!

Star Wars Figure of the Day: Day 2,065: Clone Captain Deviss (Battle of Geonosis: Jedi Knights)

By Adam Pawlus — Tuesday, November 26, 2013

I can tell you're excited - we're going to round out Toys R Us' latest exclusives (and take a break) with Clone Captain Deviss, a redeco of a figure that was a redeco of another figure.  He has a name now!  How about that?  Should you care?  Read on

Star Wars Figure of the Day: Day 2,064: Selig Kenjenn (Battle of Geonosis: Jedi Knights)

By Adam Pawlus — Monday, November 25, 2013

Available at a Toys R Us near you right now, Selig Kenjenn (not Zelig, I don't think) is shown being at the Battle of Geonosis.  Except he wasn't there - the character is based on a piece of art depicting Holocron-keeper Leland Chee as a Jedi, which had TIE Fighters in the background.  As such, it's less an essential movie collectible than it is a bizarrely neat trivia question for people like you and me who live and breathe this stuff.  Read on!

Check it out. I took the liberty of sorting out some of the deals by type after the break.

Star Wars Figure of the Day: Day 2,063: Khaat Qiyn (Battle of Geonosis: Jedi Knights)

By Adam Pawlus — Friday, November 22, 2013

While she looks a little more like Han & Leia's kid than the actress in the movie, Khaat Qiyn is largely pretty neat.  Sure, she has a giant mitt, but Que-Mars' other hand had to go somewhere.  Want to know more?  Read on

Star Wars Figure of the Day: Day 2,062: Que-Mars Redath (Battle of Geonosis: Jedi Knights)

By Adam Pawlus — Thursday, November 21, 2013

While it's not uncommon for a figure to have a minor error or two, Que-Mars Redath received two of them - and they're pretty interesting ones, at that.  This isn't the first Weequay Jedi, nor do we anticipate it to be the last.  It is, however, the first figure in the last set we're going to be looking at this week so go ahead and read on!

Star Wars Figure of the Day: Day 2,061: TC-70 (2013 Legacy Collection Droid Factory)

By Adam Pawlus — Wednesday, November 20, 2013

Check out the movie version of TC-70, Jabba's protocol droid from The Clone Wars movie.  It's pretty nice - it's also the build-a-droid from Amazon's exclusive Legacy 6-pack.  Should you get it?  Read on!

Star Wars Figure of the Day: Day 2,060: 212th Battalion Clone Trooper (2013 Legacy Collection Droid Factory)

By Adam Pawlus — Tuesday, November 19, 2013

I know what you're thinking  - didn't you buy a Vintage 212th Battalion Clone Trooper just about two years ago?  Yes, but this one is just different enough to make you mad!  New damage markings and slightly different orange patterning await you on this exclusive Droid Factory figure which now uses the 2011 Vintage Clone body, which the previous version did not.  Read on
