Video Review: Ahsoka Tano Star Wars The Vintage Collection Action Figure

By Adam Pawlus — Sunday, October 28, 2012

So how about another video review?  2012 Wave 7, the online exclusive batch of action figures, has started shipping and if you preordered them you probably already have them.  Today we're going to do a video review of Ahsoka, a realistic interpretation of the character in her season 3 costume.  It's pretty good.  I think you'll like it, so watch it after the jump.  If you don't, we know where you work, and we'll find you.

First Look: Kmart Vintage Return of the Jedi The Vintage Collection B-Wing Fighter

By Adam Pawlus — Saturday, July 16, 2011

Pretend to be excited! Hasbro will likely be unveiling the B-Wing Fighter, a just-released Kmart exclusive in The Vintage Collection at Comic-Con this week. I expect lots of applause from people in the audience who weren't paying attention to store shelves-- but not you, good reader, as you are an astute person with their ear to the tracks for this kind of thing, and good for you. I appreciate that. How is this fourth release of a 1980s mold? Pretty good, actually-- it's basically a redeco of the 2008 Dagger Squad version.

As far as toy vehicles go, the B-Wing (courtesy of its packaging and how it ships) provides one of the best user experiences around for Star Wars spacecraft. Kudos to Hasbro's packaging department for a well-engineered series of inserts, but more on that later.

And wouldn't you love to know what the 1984 ship cost and if the 2011 one is a bargain adjusted for inflation? Click through for images and impressions, after the break.
