Trick or Treat! Obi-Wan Kenobi<\/b> is all dressed up in an Expanded Universe costume based on the concept of Jedi training gear. From 2001, this was an early example of Hasbro going beyond the movies to make the prequels work as toys without being confined to one or two on-screen costumes. How did it turn out?

In 2001, Hasbro went back to the drawing board and returned with this first-ever non-muscular Lando Calrissian<\/b> from The Empire Stirkes back<\/i>. With an \"escape\" pose and six points of articulation, it was a bit of an improvement-- but was it good enough to stand out against future releases? Read on!<\/span>

For quite some time, this version of Anakin Skywalker<\/b> was one of Hasbro\'s best-- and in some respects, it still is. With a removable cloak, robotic hand, and-- for the time-- above average articulation, it was a real winner. But how does it hold up now that we\'ve had a super-poseable version of Anakin in this outfit? Read on!<\/span>

A little make-up goes a long way, and a lot of make-up, well, it makes it look like someone has a substance abuse problem. This Princess Leia<\/b> figure from 1998 comes in an oddly colored Endor dress, and has fairly bloodshot eyes. Since she looks so weird, will you find a reason to pick it up?

One of the biggest-- and therefore, best-- accessories of 2007 comes with this otherwise unassuming Luke Skywalker<\/b> action figure, available at finer stores now. With a lightsaber, hilt, and giant moisture vaporator, it\'s one of the most exciting figures of the year and improves on many previous Lukes. So should you go buy one or what? Read on!<\/span>
