Seagate Has Licensed Star Wars: The Mandalorian Hard Drives with Beskar Deco on Amazon

By Adam Pawlus — Tuesday, December 20, 2022

Just when you think you've seen it all, Amazon is selling licensed hard drives from Seagate.  There's a 2TB Beskar slab, another 2TB model with Mando on the face, and an internal 2TB SSD Beskar drive. You know, so you can really appreciate the decoration on it. As these are Amazon affiliate links, we may get a comission as a percentage of the sale prices of any items you may purchase.

Star Wars Figure of the Day: Day 2,987: Clone Captain Rex (The Bad Batch, The Vintage Collection)

By Adam Pawlus — Tuesday, December 20, 2022

Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: Clone Captain Rex (The Bad Batch, The Vintage Collection). It's an Amazon exclusive that was really hard to order, and then marked down after it started to ship. The 4-pack is $55.09 as I write this. Read on!

Massive: Star Wars Blockade Runner Custom Is Five Feet Long

By Adam Pawlus — Sunday, December 18, 2022

BigVia eBay (thanks Mouse): Rebel Blockade Runner vintage style playset kit 3d printed 5 feet long!! Nothing Hasbro or Lucasfilm will announce this month could possibly be more mind-blowingly preposterous than this awesome $599.99 plus shipping vehicle seemingly forged in a 3D printer specifically for your old Kenner figures. It's an upsized dream of an unrealized vehicle.

 

It's massive, and just seeing an old X-Wing Pilot Luke absolutely swallowed by the massive cockpit is just an insane sight to behold. It's almost too big - someone should send me one, of course. You really owe it to yourself to check this out.

Star Wars Figure of the Day: Day 2,986: George Lucas (in Stormtrooper Diguise, The Black Series)

By Adam Pawlus — Thursday, December 15, 2022

Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: George Lucas (in Stormtrooper Diguise, The Black Series). Mine cracked right out of the box, and the helmet doesn't seem to fit - so if you're thinking maybe you would leave it in the box, I would follow that instinct. The head sculpt isn't bad, but it's clearly meant to be left in the packaging. Read on!

Star Wars Figure of the Day: Day 2,985: Boba Fett (Droids, The Black Series)

By Adam Pawlus — Tuesday, December 13, 2022

Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: Boba Fett (Droids, The Black Series). The first time Hasbro has released Vlix in the United States! He's on the packaging twice. There's also a Boba Fett in the box, but you'll take note of Vlix on the back and in the front flap. Also this is the 2013 Boba Fett figure painted to look like his animated armor, which is excellent, but Hasbro has proven they know Vlix exists so now they can make a figure... right?

(Coincidentally, Target revealed two more exclusive 3 3/4-inch Boba Fetts today, but I digress.)

Star Wars Figure of the Day: Day 2,984: Koska Reeves (The Vintage Collection)

By Adam Pawlus — Thursday, December 8, 2022

Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: Koska Reeves (The Vintage Collection). As a repaint with a new head, she's kind of fantastic - articulation is good, paint is good, accessories are what they should be. I have no real complaints here. Read on!

Star Wars Figure of the Day: Day 2,983: IG-88 (and Dengar, The Retro Collection)

By Adam Pawlus — Tuesday, December 6, 2022

Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: IG-88 (and Dengar, The Retro Collection). The droid shares parts with Hasbro's Kenner's IG-11, which means it's a much less sharp release than the original from the 1980s. However, the orange paint is much more generous - so at a distance, this is the one that looks better. If you get close, you'll see a lot of the sculpted lines aren't quite as impressive as an actual old IG-88 though. Even if you have an original, this is a variant that's arguably interesting enough to pick up.
