By Adam Pawlus — Monday, August 1, 2011

It's the new General Grievous packaged with the new Attack Cycle!  It's similar to one that came out in 2010, but it's less likely to fall apart--a big, big plus.  So should you get one?  Read on!

Star Wars Figure of the Day: Day 1,598

By Adam Pawlus — Friday, July 29, 2011

Star Wars Figure of the Day: Day 1,597

By Adam Pawlus — Thursday, July 28, 2011

Hasbro has no shortage of Darth Maul figures, and this one was particularly tough to get at first.  As one of the "Masters of the Dark Side," the set was quite scarce-- single figures came out later, and now it's cheap enough for you to get easily.  Should you?  Read on!

Star Wars Figure of the Day: Day 1,596

By Adam Pawlus — Wednesday, July 27, 2011

It's IG97, the "killer" robot.  Based on the newest Battle Droid chassis, the figure has loads of articulation, a good amount of gear, and a comic-accurate head to boot.  You'll want this one-- assuming you can still find it, which is entirely possible.  Read on!

Star Wars Figure of the Day: Day 1,595

By Adam Pawlus — Tuesday, July 26, 2011

Science fact: fans love Natalie Portman.  So it's no surprise we eventually would get more toys of her, like this Padme Amidala in a black gown thing from 2007.  She can't sit, but hey, she can stand!  Find out if she's a must-have, and read on.

Star Wars Figure of the Day: Day 1,594

By Adam Pawlus — Monday, July 25, 2011

He's small and fishy.  Robonino was one of those figures fans started asking for, subsequently got, and didn't really buy.  His Target-exclusive gift set is still available nearly 9 months after its introduction, which is a shame, as it's a nice set that should sell through. Should you get one?  Read on!

Here is today's Hasbro Comic-Con presentation uploaded in our Image Bank. You can also view it in a Quicktime movie below. Enjoy!

Comic-Con: Trench Run X-Wing Has Guts

By Mike — Friday, July 22, 2011

At first glance, one may make the assumption that the upcoming ToysRus Trench Run X-Wing Fighter is another iteration of the 1997 Power FX mold or a repaint like the Dagobah version. But Hasbro went to great lengths to give Luke's signature starfighter some fresh insides by tooling a new fuselage and adding great detail and features in the cockpit. This may be your definitive 3 3/4 X-Wing yet.

Comic-Con: TPM and Deleted Scenes Figures Revealed!

By Mike — Friday, July 22, 2011

We mentioned Hasbro's tendency to stagger their reveals during these events. The afternoon after their Comic-Con panel, Hasbro displays their forthcoming The Phantom Menace and ROTJ Deleted Scenes waves slated for release in the beginning of 2012! And these look spectacular! The TPM wave includes Padawan Anakin, Quinlan Vos, Ben Quadrinaros, Ratts Tyerell, Daultay Dofine, and a Naboo Royal Guard, while the ROTJ wave has Deleted Scene Luke, Leia, Lando, General Cracken, and a Mon Calamari Pilot!

Comic-Con: Hasbro Panel Blaster Points

By Mike — Friday, July 22, 2011

Revenge is a dish best served cold, and in Hasbro's case, sometimes repackaged. The Hasbro's Comic-Con panels normally provides good copy and there were a few nice revelations, and this session provided a mixed bag. For whatever it's worth, the Star Wars line is entering a 16th year of modern iteration and most screen characters have been done again and again...and again.
