If you can't get enough pink in your action figure boxes, QT-KT is one you'll want.  There aren't many pink figures in the thousands of plastic men and women in Star Wars, but here's one.  It's based on the bartender droid mold, minus the bartender stuff.  Also, Happy Thanksgiving.  Read on!

This is the first Snowtrooper Officer to be made in Vietnam - and at first glance, it's just a deco variant.  But it's not.   This is an all-new sculpt - everything is basically in the same place, but the details, the textures, and the sizes of elements have changed.  The height is a little different, and you'll notice some pretty significant changes on the bottom of the backpack.  Check it out - read on!

It's the Death Trooper!  Which is kind of a silly name for a government to employ for its military, but then again we also have a Death Star and such.  It's a decent figure with a ridiculous backpack - and it comes in a two-pack with a cool alien. I assume you've bought yours by now.  If not, read on!

Thanks to my pal Shannon once more, the droid R2-H16 is here in the office!  He's at Disneyland and other Disney parks now for pennies under $13.  He also has an all-new hat.  You won't want to miss this festive fellow, as he'll likely disappear from the parks before the new year.  Get yours, read on!

This week in Q&A - Stormtrooper variations - oh, the rich tapestry of flavor that awaits us all! R2-D2 anxiety - what should you do if you missed the first 6-inch figure? And future droid sets - what does hope look like? All this and more, little girl.

And send in your questions for next week. Read on!

Ad: It's coming!  At only 500 pieces, the Star Wars Classic First Order Stormtrooper Hikari Sofubi Vinyl Figure from Funko is one of the lowest-run takes on the trooper yet.  It's shiny, it's white, it's vinyl, and it's $49.99.  Click here to pre-order yours now.

This Poe Dameron wears an outfit you probably missed in the movie - but it's there!   It comes with a giant gun thing that you may have also missed in the movie.  This wasn't there.   It's in stores now, so is it worth getting?  Read on!

It's R7-D4!  It's Plo Koon's droid, who is now enjoying its second figure - the first was an animated take from The Clone Wars.  This one is an Entertainment Earth exclusive, and new this year.   Want to know more?  Read on!

Hey kids, Hoth Battle Gear is making a comeback!   Captain Cassian Andor (Eadu) looks like he draws from equal measures Luke and Han from The Empire Strikes Back, which means they probably nailed the costume here.  He has a gun, a zipline, and a better-than-expected face given the tiny features and stubble.  He's shipping now - should you track him down?  Read on!

Rebel Commando Pao has a familiar backpack and an all-new screaming head!   The rest of him is also pretty much all-new.  It's part of a good two-pack with a Death Trooper, so you'll probably want to get it.  You can also get it in a Kohl's set.  Point being, you're going to wind up with one.  Read on!

This week in Q&A - ALIENS - at least it's not politics, right? And old Expanded Universe exclusives - is there hope that you'll see these now-Legends characters again as toys? No. Hope is a lie. And 5-jointed wonders - what's new for the old school?

And send in your questions for next week. Read on!

It's here too!  For $14.99 - and apparently not qualifying for the 20% off sale right now - the Star Wars Rogue One Cassian Andor and Stormtrooper Exclusive Figure Two-Pack is in stores now. As always, I found it in Phoenix, AZ and it was the last one at the store I visited.  Good hunting!

The set includes Cassian Andor from the U-Wing fighter (with slightly better paint), a redeco of the single-carded Stormtrooper, Sabine's zipline, and more.  That's a decent amount of plastic for $15.
