Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: Senni Tonnika (Cantina - The Vintage Collection). She was near the top of a very short list of figures that it seemed Hasbro (and Kenner) might never make - but here we are! In the 1990s we were hoping for a figure with six joints and now we've got a super-articulated figure with a separately molded wig, a blaster, a glass, and an alternate hand. You can't ask for much more here, other than maybe a reissue for those who skipped out on the HasLab Cantina. Read on!
Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: Scout Trooper (Red Tech Speeder Bike / Epic World of Action). The classic deco at stores is being cleared out, but this red "tech" variant has been showing up online. The figure itself is the same, but the bike has some added paint with clear red plastic accessories. It's weird, so I like it - but good luck tracking it down outside online sellers. Read on!
Right now, DisneyStore has DJ R-3X Action Figure – Droid Depot – Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge in stock It's orange, it has some painted scuffs, and it looks cool.
This week in Star Wars Q&A - Cantina characters can't complete congregation Well, we got a lot. And the black or gray market is not an area of my expertise, but people seem to be selling figures that aren't typically available a lot as of late.
Oh and the whole London MCM is coming up so get yer credit cards ready.

Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: Darth Vader (The Journey of Anakin Skywalker - The Vintage Collection). He's new, and technically from Ahsoka but also might do as a stand-in for Revenge of the Sith despite the red blade lightsaber. It's a pretty great figure and part of a 3-pack with an Emperor's Wrath Vader and a caped The Clone Wars Anakin. Read on!
Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: C1-10P (Ahsoka show redeco, Droid Factory). It's a repaint of a cartoon toy for a live action show, and it's similar enough that you probably wouldn't miss not having it. The actual prop had some alterations from this design, but it's probably one of those "close enough" things that you wouldn't mind having nor would you miss not having. Assuming you had other Disney or Hasbro Chopper figures, of course. Read on!
This week in Star Wars Q&A - Something shipped early? It happened! And toys minus the toy part is kind of where we are. What did that do to our souls?

Ad: Pre-order new Star Wars The Black Series Boba Fett (The Book of Boba Fett) 6-Inch Action Figure, Star Wars The Black Series Darth Vader (Duel’s End) 6-Inch Action Figure, and in-stock (for now) Star Wars The Vintage Collection Jango Fett 3 3/4-Inch Deluxe Action Figure - Exclusive. Don't miss it again if you wanted one!
Details are light, but at New York Comic Con Steve Evans posted a preview of Garindan! It looks a little different than many would have expected - the hips seem a little thin and possibly fragile for a robed figure - but it's a new alien. Is it an exclusive? Will it be in a 6-pack? How can I get one? I don't know. But it's nice to see the line continue, in some sort of "pack" at least.
Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: Luke Skywalker (Tatooine, Landspeeder - The Vintage Collection) . He can sit better and has a belt that can carry more accessories. If you want a figure for a playset or a vehicle, get this one. If you want one to stand around, get the one without the Landspeeder. Read on!
If you didn't get yours yet, DisneyStore.com has the R2-H25 Holiday Droid Factory Figure up for $14.99. With tax and shipping that's close to $30, so you might also want to see if there are Halloween or other figures to soften the impact.
This week in Star Wars Q&A - Here comes success! Hooray, success! And Death Star expectations - we're gonna have a lot to speculate on until HasLab does(n't) make it happen.

Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: Padmé Amidala (The Black Series 3 3/4-Inch) . She's from 2013, but I was on a break for a while then. With the new Gunship, maybe you'll want to keep her around just in case her Nexu slash marks are more to your liking. (I don't know the Nexu-ness if the new one.) Read on!
Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: Chewbacca (Epic World of Action). It's tall, it has a lot of articulation, and it's really nice. The sculpt retains elements of the bigger The Black Series figures, with lots of accessories and really good deco. I haven't seen this one in stores yet, so you might want to get it online. Read on!
This week in Star Wars Q&A - Why aren't we getting more of the grails in The Retro Collection? Well, who else is asking for them? Also reading into things a bit too much - it's not like a HasLab gives you enough data to know much of anything.
