The Han Solo (Kessel Run Millennium Falcon) may be popping up in a playset later this year - we'll need to wait and see how many changes they make - but you can get get it with a rather small Falcon right now! The figure isn't bad - it's as Kenner-y as anything we've had in recent years. Read on!
This Chewbacca (Vandor-1 Playset) is like the other one, but with goggles. I think the growls are slightly different, but that may not be a selling point - the playset is, though. Read on!
The Solo 4-pack is pretty hit and miss with two fairly interesting robots and two that do not impress. The R2-S8 (Droid Factory Line Look) is my favorite in the set - not only is it black and white and red all over, but there's weird and colorful writing on the dome. It's good! You should get this one. Read on!
Target's exclusive Gamorrean Guard (The Black Series 6-Inch) has an opening mouth - and I'm having a lot of fun with that. Use any food you may have to engage your toy and also be mad that you can't find one, because it's awesome, and I'd love to get 1 or 2 more of these. Read on!
Fresh from SDCC, it's Doctor Aphra! This figure will be sold on the traditional 6x9 cardback later this year, but if you got her and her droid pals in the 3-pack you know she's got a good range of movement and joints that actually move and work well. Hasbro did a great job with the newest Fan's Choice figure. Read on!
Fresh from Comic-Con, it's 0-0-0 (Triple Zero)! This is a black C-3PO repaint - this is the 2010 Vintage mold. Want to see more? Read on!
It's Woody! The Tobias Beckett (The Black Series 6-Inch) turned out pretty well, has the requisite amount of articulation, with perfectly nice painting. The facial hair could be a smidgen better, but it's still consistent with the quality this line has given us as of late. Read on!
We were shown this on Twitter, and well, why not just show it to you? Here's this year's Halloween Disney parks droid R4-B0018. Thanks to @Jesse_James77 on Twitter for sharing in a tweet.
Because of the candy theme for this year’s Halloween droid at Disney, I’m predicting red white striped candy cane holiday droid! You heard it here first whenever it happens. It will happen.
Check out the Rebel Trooper (The Black Series 6-Inch) figure! He has a helmet, a blaster, and the Death Star plans from Rogue One. That's how you cross generations. The articulation is exceptional, so of course it's going to be hard to troop-build this one. Read on!
Exclusive to Entertainment Earth in the USA, this C'ai Threnalli (The Last Jedi Line Look) has a sound chip and a really slick paint job - and they're in stock for ordering right now. He has a little more articulation than I expected, too. Read on!
She's new! Delayed from The Last Jedi, this Maz Kanata (Solo: A Star Wars Story Line Look) looks the same but has the revised 2.0 Force Link chip. If you got The Force Awakens Maz, you've basicaly got this figure - except the accessories. Read on!
Dead figures are a rarity in Star Wars, but soaking wet dog people? That's new. The Chewbacca (Mimban) figure is specifically from a scene in Solo: A Star Wars Story in which Han meets the Wookiee for the very first time, introduced to him as "The Beast." The figure is covered in mud and looks like a cross between the scary monster we first see in the film, and the friendly furball we have known for our entire lives. Read on!
Hasbro revealed some freshness for us, plus a long-requested return of Darth Revan - yes, the 2007 figure. Finally.
Other new figures include a Rogue One Stormtrooper using the Mimban Stormtrooper body and a helmet from the 5-points-of-articulation figure. It looks good.
Lando Calrissian and Han Solo are on the way from Solo.
You've possibly seen this, but this 4-pack of Solo: A Star Wars Story Action Figures brings you Han Solo (new, coat), Qi'ra (new outfit), Weazel (new), and a Range Trooper (build your armies). 3 out of 4 plus a desirable trooper ain't bad - this set should hit around September at video time.
