One of the more highly-requested figures after The Force Awakens came out, Supreme Leader Snoke has had a pretty good recent run as action figures. This one has a cloth outfit and a generous slathering of articulation, and it's also the only completely new figure in the new 2018 The Vintage Collection so far. As such, you're probably on your way to buy one. Read on!
This week in Q&A - Solo's this week and there's not much stuff out there! At least I found the new 6-inch Chewbacca over the weekend. And prices - let's clarify a few things. We can also talk 3 3/4-inch action figures, because Solo launched under 10 figures for the new movie across its various 3 3/4-inch assortments. Quite possibly the smallest showing ever for a movie launch in this franchise.

The long-delayed Kylo Ren (with display base and metal helmet, The Black Series 6-Inch) hit a few weeks ago, and it's surprisngly decent. He has a metal helmet and a cloth cape, and if that weren't enough there's also a display base that can connect to Snoke's throne. It's a lot of plastic, and you're charged accordingly. Is it worth it? Read on!
This week in Q&A - Prequel figures! Should you get your hopes up for more 6-inch ones? Eh, maybe. Force Link 2.0 - well, uh, it's not much of an upgrade yet. Oh, and there's a new Star Wars movie coming out in under two weeks. Can you feel it?

Possibly now available, but also likely to be sold out at a store near you, this Darth Maul is part of a new 2-pack that just hit. The review was queued up before the app went live, but its Force Link 2.0 clips are a soundalike for some reason. We are not amused. But since the figure is fine, at least future generations won't have to be quite as sad when support for the app and firmware inevitably ends. Read on!
Part of a new 2-pack, the Qui-Gon Jinn (Solo: A Star Wars Story Line Look) is pretty sharp. The Maul it comes with is no slouch - there are some great accessories, and one confusing one. It's worth your money, even if the Force Link clips are soundalikes. Read on!
This week in Q&A - HasLab Redux! Will they be a source for new classic figures? Will Disney make more stuff for themselves? Probably. And Vehicles - ugly, ain't got no alibi? Well, agree to disagree.

Let's look at Han Solo (Speeder, Solo: A Star Wars Story Line Look)! He has a new outfit, a head that looks like Han but not really like the new actor - which means, we can now assume this is intentional - and a blue speeder that looks a lot like a book. I like it. Read on!
New from Hasbro - if you can find it - is this Dewback with Sandtrooper (The Black Series 6-Inch)! It's big and neat and probably sold out at a store near you. It mixes elements of the newer CG Dewbacks with the original prop puppet, resulting in a surprisingly well-made lizard with articulated toes. And an articulated tongue. Find a better Dewback, I dare you. Read on!
This week in Q&A - Sail Barge stuff! Advertising, big toy edition sizes, and more. And More figures for the barge - what can we expect in the future?
