Today in Figure of the Day: Captain Cardinal (The Black Series 6-Inch). It's a First Order Stormtrooper, but red, and with a cape - and you got charged $5 more for it. It's a book character that I don't believe is a costumed character at Galaxy's Edge, but I may be wrong about that. It was part of Target's exclusive program and that's 100% appropriate. When do I get my Target exclusive Red Bumblebee? Is that happening? And if not why not? Anyway, we're going to try three figures a week for a while and see how that goes. Read on!
Today in Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day: See-Threepio (C-3PO 2020 Redux, The Vintage Collection). It has less paint, but looks better than the 2010 release. He also has removable panels and a removable leg, which I admit I missed the first time this mold got put out back in 2010. I assume and hope you got this by now. Read on!
Today in Figure of the Day: Ahsoka Tano (The Black Series 6-Inch). She's a Walmart exclusive that I never actually saw in a store - presumably some made it to stores, but I got mine online. Maybe there's more to be had - it's tough to tell. Read on!
Today in Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day: Rey (Dark Side Vision, The Black Series 6-Inch). I just got my Asajj Ventress and the two share some tooling - a clever cost-saving measure that serves both figures well as the rang of motion is excellent and the sculpting is top-notch. Read on!
Today in Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day: Incinerator Trooper (The Vintage Collection). You can get a big one, or at Walmart, you can get the smaller exclusive one. It's good, it has fire with it. It doesn't have the Imperial cog on the backpack, though, but I'd still say get it if you're a fan of either The Force Unleashed or The Mandalorian. Read on!
Today in Figure of the Day: Din Djarin (with The Child, The Vintage Collection). It's a retool with tons of dirt and damage, an unmasked head, an ice cream maker, beskar ingots, and tons of other goodies. Read on!
He farms water and is our Figure of the Day today: Kuiil (The Black Series 6-Inch)! It's the first figure of this character and one of very few new Ugnaught figures this century.He's short. He's got a hat. You're going to want this one - it's not amazing, but it's pretty fantastic. Read on!
Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: The Child (with Din Djarin, The Vintage Collection). It's a positively tiny little gremlin with jointed arms and a neck. The paint is good, the sculpt is good, and you probably want it if you don't already have one in your house. Read on!
Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: Captain Rex (2020 Reissue, The Vintage Collection). It's a reissue of The Black Series 3 3/4-inch figure with slightly sharper details and slightly more saturated blue paint. Of the two releases, it's the better one, but you'd be hard-pressed to tell the difference without a side-by-side comparison of both figures in person. Read on!
Your figure of the day is The Mandalorian (Beskar Armor, The Vintage Collection). It's a retool with a lot of new parts, and particularly bright armor. It's also the same mold as the Walmart 2-pack with the kid, which is arguably different enough that you will clearly want both. But can you find either? Probably not. Want to know what you're Read on!

You can't afford to miss the Moff Gideon (The Vintage Collection). For such a tiny head, this is one of Hasbro's very best likenesses - he has a Darksaber and a blaster, plus a removable cape. The articulation is nothing to sneeze at. There's somefring for everybody.
Today let's take a look at the not-too-distant-past with the partially old, partialy new Darth Vader (Rogue One, The Vintage Collection). It's a figure from nearly 10 years ago with new paint and some new parts.
