Star Wars Figure of the Day: Day 3,220: Dedra Meero (The Vintage Collection)

By Adam Pawlus — Tuesday, March 4, 2025

Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: Dedra Meero (The Vintage Collection). This is a good figure and should tie nicely into Andor, should she still be available when it airs. The articulation is good, the sculpting is nice, and she doesn't look too much like any other ISB agents you may already own. Read on!

Star Wars Figure of the Day: Day 3,219: Fennec Shand (The Retro Collection)

By Adam Pawlus — Thursday, February 27, 2025

Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: Fennec Shand (The Retro Collection). I had her on my desk for months and thought I wrote the review - well, let's correct that! Here she is, and you might even find her at Ross for cheap. This wave never hit big box stores, which is a shame because they're all very good figures. Her removable helmet reminds me a lot of the old Boushh. Read on!

Star Wars Figure of the Day: Day 3,218: HK-87 Assassin Droid (Arcana)

By Adam Pawlus — Tuesday, February 25, 2025

Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: HK-87 Assassin Droid (Arcana, The Vintage Collection). While a redeco, it also loses an accessory from the previous release - there's no blaster this time. But it's still an awesome droid based on 20th-century concept art, so you're probably going to be glad that you got one. Read on!

Q&A: Star Wars Big Figures In Decline (But Returning) and Mold Wear and Tear

By Adam Pawlus — Sunday, February 23, 2025

This week in Star Wars Q&A - Mold Wear and Tear - is such a thing even possible? And the alleged end of 12-inch figure - sometimes people don't show up to the party.

Star Wars Figure of the Day: Day 3,214: Mae (Assassin, The Vintage Collection)

By Adam Pawlus — Thursday, February 20, 2025

Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: Mae (Assassin, The Retro Collection). This figure answers the question "Does Hasbro still got it?" with a "Yes." She has optional masks, a cloth cloak, two daggers, incredible costume deco, an amazing likeness, and a well separately molded hair piece. Given the size Hasbro is working with I'd say this figure is as good as the modern era can be expected to get - and you might, maybe, find her in a store near you as The Acolyte stuff has been slower to move. If you see her, you should give this figure a look - it's good. Read on!

Star Wars Figure of the Day: Day 3,216: Mace Windu (The Retro Collection)

By Adam Pawlus — Tuesday, February 18, 2025

Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: Mace Windu (The Retro Collection). While smoother than actual Kenner toys, this recent-ish release does look pretty cool with his cloak and purple lightsaber. Read on!

Q&A: Star Wars Epic Hero Series and Barflies

By Adam Pawlus — Sunday, February 16, 2025

This week in Star Wars Q&A - Tonnika stories! Why did Hasbro say "no" for years and finally deliver? ...would you believe I don't know? And Kid Stuff - you should give it a shot!

Also, we're out of questions for next week. Send in new questions.

I'm cobbling together some stuff for a possible feature on 3D printing parts for newbies (like me) so if you have any questions - or things you want to make sure get shared - send those my way too.

R2-BNE Star Wars Droid Factory Figure Now Available

By Adam Pawlus — Sunday, February 16, 2025

UPDATE:  There's a free shipping offer Monday, February 17 until 8:00 PM Pacific time. I just got mine. Order yours, save ten bucks.

UPDATE #2: As of February 20, the droid has sold out.  Keep an eye on Disney parks if you're in the market for one.

The Disney R2-BNE Star Wars Droid Factory Figure. Retailing for $14.99, it includes a debut hat. Adding to the holiday collection with what I assume the first-ever Easter droid - unless I missed one - should be a welcome addition to any collection. New orders are welcome. Shipping is about $9.99. Purchases may also be available at Disney parks or Downtown Disney locations, so keep an eye open. Right now, there's a free shipping code for $75+, "SHIPMAGIC." I don't think you'll want to miss this one. Details of the bio weren't shown, but it seems to indicate this is R2-D2 in Easter colors. Eggs-actly what I would want.

Star Wars Figure of the Day: Day 3,215: Scout Trooper (Speeder Bike / Epic Hero Series)

By Adam Pawlus — Thursday, February 13, 2025

Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: Scout Trooper (Speeder Bike / Epic Hero Series). This is a new release that's actually easy to find - most Target stores seem to be getting solid cases of just him. (But, oddly, not the Mando bike.) The figure is pretty good, with nice paint and a slick off-white coloring that looks sort of like the battle-worn armor on the show. It also includes a Stormtrooper blaster instead of the Bike Scout pistol, but it's still a neat figure with a nice toy bike. Read on!

Star Wars Figure of the Day: Day 3,214: Luke Skywalker (The Vintage Collection)

By Adam Pawlus — Tuesday, February 11, 2025

Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: Luke Skywalker (The Vintage Collection). It's the first new version of this specific Luke at this size in years - it's been over a decade since he was in The Vintage Collection as a single-carded figure. Heck, the last best version was in a The Legacy Collection Battle Pack, so you're going to be pretty happy with this very good upgrade. Also exciting, it's a character from the movie called Star Wars, of which there are annoyingly few these days. Read on!

This week in Star Wars Q&A - should Hasbro make Star Wars exclusive to Fan Channel and/or Hasbro Pulse? No. And where are electronics? Not here!

Star Wars Figure of the Day: Day 3,210: Mae (Assassin, The Retro Collection)

By Adam Pawlus — Thursday, February 6, 2025

Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: Mae (Assassin, The Retro Collection). This is a really nice figure - she has a vinyl cape and two knives, with separately molded hair. She is in a six-pack sold online, so get her while you can. Read on!
