You\'ve seen the best, now see the rest. (We kid.) The Gonk Droid<\/b> from the 1999 Power of the Force<\/i> collection was a widely requested figure which, to this day, is still one of the best. He comes with a Jawa and has a wonky \"oh crap please don\'t burn my feet\" action. Can you beat that? Read on!<\/span> <\/a>

Is it a much-desired remake of a classic vintage 1984 action figure, or a crappy pack-in that still needs to be updated? Maybe it\'s both! Either way, it\'s the subject of Figure of the Day, and it\'s the A-Wing Pilot<\/b> from the A-Wing Fighter. See all the details when you read on. (And oh, you do want to read on.)

Today in Figure of the Day, we turn back the clock to 1999, back when this figure was actually quite the exciting new release. Gasgano<\/b> came with a Pit Droid, and had four arms (and they were all jointed, too!) This figure came with a CommTech chip, and was the only member of his species to be made so far-- so, do you need one or what? Read on!<\/span> <\/a>

There aren\'t many Cantina aliens that people probably felt Kenner \"missed\" during the vintage days as much as Garindan<\/b>. Today in Figure of the Day, we look at the Mos Eisley snitch from his 2006 release, which is extremely well designed with a cloth cloak and little pointy ears. In short, he\'s cute, and you can see him when you read on!<\/span> <\/a>

There are a lot of characters Hasbro has done several times over-- but none more than the Clone Trooper. In Figure of the Day today, we look at this year\'s Toys \"R\" Us exclusive Captain Fordo<\/b>, a head-swap-repaint that has everyone jumping for glee. But should they be jumping for glee?

You just read Hasbro\'s latest question sheet, so what would be a good chaser? How about Figure of the Day, where we look at Queen Amdidala<\/b> (Celebration Ceremony)? This nifty Episode I<\/i>-themed figure came out in 2005, and all these year later, still looks good. But do you need one? Read on!<\/span> <\/a>

For the 25th Anniversary of Star Wars<\/i>, surely Hasbro would have done something truly awesome-- right? Well, sorta. They did something with Obi-Wan Kenobi<\/b>, part of a two-pack and today\'s Figure of the Day. What does this old hooded Jedi have to offer? Read on!<\/span> <\/a>

Who loves ugly? Today, we look at Bubo<\/b>, a nasty desert dweller from Tatooine that sits around Jabba\'s Palace. For Figure of the Day, we simply must look at all figures, especially the ones that look like uglier, browner, toothier versions of Slimer of Ghostbusters<\/i> fame. So, do you need to add this one to your dioramas? Read on!<\/span> <\/a>

One of the finest waves of Star Wars<\/i> figures of all time was the first batch from the Original Trilogy Collection<\/i>, and we look at one of the new figures from that wave today in Figure of the Day. R2-D2<\/b> has movie-accurate sounds and lots and lots of dirt. Could he be the best bleeping droid ever? (As opposed to the non-bleeping ones?) Read on!<\/span> <\/a>

Everybody loves Muppets, right? Today in Figure of the Day, we look at Frank Oz\' character, Yoda<\/b>. There\'s about ten million unique Yoda action figures, and we look at the first installment of 2002 today. He\'s loaded with extras, but do you need them all? Read on!<\/span> <\/a>

A while ago, we looked at the ultimate version of this figure. Today, we look at the original Boss Nass<\/b> in Figure of the Day. Could this shorter, uglier, less detailed figure have a place in your collection? The answer might surprise you. (But it probably won\'t.) Read on!<\/span> <\/a>

Today in Figure of the Day, we look at a great figure that went under the radar with R2-M5<\/b>. This nifty red version of R2-D2 has a fully retractable leg and a lot of controversy over its name. Want to know more? Read on!<\/span> <\/a>

Today in Figure of the Day, we look at one of the Empire\'s best loved troopers. The 2006 Sandtrooper<\/b> is a heavily reworked (and in many ways, superior) release of the 2004 Vintage Original Trilogy Collection<\/i> Stormtrooper. Except now he comes with lots of extras and costs less. Is the figure as good as he sounds? Read on!<\/span> <\/a>

Today, we continue Figure of the Day past the century mark with a look at one of this year\'s new Astromech droids, R3-T6<\/b>. As a repaint of an older mold, it\'s a figure fans were expecting for a while, but not one they might know by name. Curious to see how it turned out? Read on!<\/span> <\/a>

The Star Wars<\/i> Universe has no shortage of villains, although big bad characters are far and few between-- especially in the Empire\'s reign since most of the action was given to Darth Vader. That\'s why in today\'s special Figure of the Day 100, we look at a lesser-known villain getting his first-ever figure. He was known as the Mystery Figure for a while, but perhaps you know him better as Carnor Jax<\/b>. We have a few close-up shots and some hands-on playtesting for you. Do you need to get one of these when it hits online stores in September? Read on!<\/span> <\/a>

Holy cow! It\'s the Super Battle Droid<\/b> from the Clone Wars<\/i> line! We look at this figure from the droid army three-pack today, and see how it stacks up. Could it be even better than the individual ones that cost more? Read on!<\/span> <\/a>

We casually stroll a long Figure of the Day toward #100! Today, we look at Padmé Amidala (Lars Homestead)<\/b> from 2003, which is a pretty solid figure with an above par likeness. But can she do anything but just stand there and look pretty? Read on!<\/span> <\/a>

Oh, we just can\'t get enough Ewoks here at Figure of the Day. Of course, lucky for you, there aren\'t many left to go through-- so today we look at Logray<\/b>, first of Power of the Force<\/i> in 1998 and then of the Original Trilogy Collection<\/i> of 2004. So is he too short, or just right? Good question. Allow me to aim to answer it. Read on!<\/span> <\/a>

Back when Hasbro first announced Eeth Koth<\/b> we were told that it would be, stylistically, a preview of the then-upcoming Episode II<\/i> line of action figures. Today in Figure of the Day, we examine this promise and see what this all means over 5 years later. Should you care? Is this figure in need of revisiting? Read on!<\/span> <\/a>

It\'s not easy being green-- or short-- or dead. Today in Figure of the Day, we look at Yoda<\/b> as seen in the nifty Jedi Spirits gift set from a few years ago. He\'s more or less clear blue, and he\'s the only Jedi Spirit Yoda figure ever released. (Although we did get a holographic one last year.) Is he worth picking up? Read on!<\/span> <\/a>

Today in Figure of the Day, we continue our march to the 100th entry with Han Solo in Hoth Gear<\/b>. Once, he was an exciting new and different entry into the line.

11 years ago today, I started writing about Star Wars<\/i> on the Internet. And this is the figure that caused it. In today\'s Figure of the Day, I look at Han Solo in Stormtrooper Disguise<\/b>, the first modern mail-in figure. If you bought Froot Loops (yes, Froot, not Fruit) you could send off for this figure with removable helmet-- but no gun. Why doesn\'t he have a gun? And how can you get the gun meant for him? And why am I wasting time talking about me in this entry? Read on!<\/span> <\/a>
